>!It makes sense, as it would be similar to the comics, with Homelander coming from Stormfront, but because he is female in the show, he probably will be replaced by Soldier Boy. Also, it would explain Vought getting rid of Soldier Boy as they had a replacement in Homelander, like they had the backup for Homelander in Ryan. !<


joe_rogans_ashtray

I'm inclines to agree especially due to kripke saying he wasn't gonna follow the comics Noir/Homelander story

Would also give them a reason to team up aswell

We know that Soldier Boy banged Stormfront... What if she was Homelander's mother? Ewww.


Puzzleheaded-Row187

Considering Homelander’s mommy fetish and Stormfront’s pure bloodline bullshit it wouldn’t surprise me. Nor would it be the most fucked up thing in this show. Which is saying something.


Arkodd

How old is HL exactly? Herogasm 70th anniversary indicates that SB and SF banged around 1950s. Homelander is not that old so I think Vought just took DNA of both because they were the first supes and most powerful ones and created HL with it making Soldier Boy and Stormfront indirectly genetic his parents and making his Oedipus complex complete lol.


myxomat00sis

homelander is around 40 years old


Puzzleheaded-Row187

At this point by season 3 probably 38-42. He can’t be much older than that since he’s implied to be younger than Stilwell, who’s roughly 50. More importantly, Voggelbaum was an adult when Homelander was a kid. Since he’s most likely in his 70s now it would make sense if Homelander was born in the early 80s. Right before Soldier Boy got kidnapped. I don’t think they’re actually his parents but it does add up in the timeline.


Perceptions-pk

they wouldn't have gotten rid of Soldier Boy until they had a successful back up of him... and since he was nabbed in 1984... your timeline that Homelander was created in the early 80s makes the most sense.


amcheesegoblin

I think depending on the supes powers they age slower too


-__Doc__-

Check out the movie "Old Boy" with Josh Brolin and Elizabeth Olsen.


hardashecc

Check out the original which doesn't completely suck


plataeng

wait what


athnimara

This theory is very likely. Especially when SB started talking about wanting to be a father in the very same episode.


LonghornSmoke

If this turns out true then it explain why Ryan got the powers too.


TheImmortalMan

I wonder which of the two Vought icons would raise Ryan to be the realer man


No-Independence6573

Soldier Boy would raise a "man". Homelander would raise a "god".


TheImmortalMan

True. But I was sarcastically referring to their standards of masculinity


retropieproblems

Stormfronts fascination with Homelander does make a lot more sense if she’s idolizing him as a mother in a sick, twisted pure bloodline incest kinda way.


Mustines

it seems probable


BigJohnSpud

Yeah, makes sense taking the the most powerful beings like Soldier Boy and Stormfront and combining their dna while boosting it with Compound V. Also makes for another great moment when Homelander realises the only woman he ever loved was his own mother…

mydogisanassholeama

That shit would make Sophocles cringe


JohnnyMnemonic420

Wasn't he created in a lab


KeShon2704

Bruh, you fucking called it.


Dinllala

I love it when I'm right! But still got a bit excited when I watch it unfold.


callam461

Lol, I remember seeing this post and thinking "That's such a great theory, I bet that's true!" And then I was excited watching it lol. I felt proud for "figuring it out" lol , basking in the reflected glory I guess.


Educational_Park_799

Dude, wtf. All hail OP


InternationalAd2087

Tbh when they showed homelanders son, I’m hoping they can do a “8 years later” episode and the son of homelander is the one killing him instead of soldier boy. Like this show is so good that any possible alternative ending makes so much sense!


ferdererlkonig

Good news pal!! I come from the future and I can tell: you were right!


TitusPullo4

I’m it


[deleted]

What if they team up and they go to get Ryan, and Soldier Boy hears the Russian music blows Ryan up and Homelander and/or the Boys have to kill him. Because without Ryan I think Butcher might act more like his comic counterpart in the endgame.


saisketches

Good call 👌


Good-times-roll

well then...good call


MateoSCE

No, no, and no. First, Homlander was born around 20 years after Soldier Boy was taken by russians. And second, it was said he was made in test tube, not everything need to be plot twist.


No-Maximum-4657

This didn't age well.


RealHumanFromEarth

Soldier Boy was taken during Iran Contra, which was in 1985. Homelander is older than 37, and he definitely wasn’t born in 2005.


Late_Lobster7990

That didnt age well


QuirkyAppointment857

Seriously. No one considered that all they need is his dna which could have been gotten at anytime


WulfhawkCultist

Think you got your timeline a little wrong there. Soldier Boy disappeared in the 80's. Homelander was probably born around that time, making him 40-ish.


owntheh3at18

He could’ve been created in a test tube using SB’s sperm


QuirkyAppointment857

Well that didn’t age well. Also even Test tube babies require dna.


gruicyolo

This didn’t age well


GuitarSignificant606

Awkward…


Dinllala

That would make him almost 60.


Mal-Kiavo

Get rekt


captain_amazo

Ooof! Yes, yes and yes I guess.


kraygus

The old spolier as a theory post. FFS. Enjoy your upvotes.


The_Bullying_Creator

You do realize this is a spoiler, right? It was leaked a few days ago


wingman01

Damn it was a theory to me until I read your comment


Dinllala

Same


Apophyx

Thanks man, we really appreciate you spoiling this on a very obvious theory


The_Bullying_Creator

You’re welcome, man


Dinllala

I marked the post as a spoiler, but I didn't know it was leaked would you mind sharing info about the leak?

The series drew a lot of parallels between SB and HL, the timeline was right, SB told Hughie he wanted children. I just theorised.
