Who is qualified for college? At the Brazilian Comic Con Experience on Saturday, Dec. 3, the first teaser for Amazon’s “The Boys” spinoff, “Gen V,” debuted. The new show appears to be just as evil as the original. While the narrator assures Godolkin University students that the campus would provide them with a “safe atmosphere to grow,” it seems that attending this university is risky business.
There is blood, guts, and in the trailer. . . puppets? Without context, it’s difficult to understand exactly what’s happening at the university, but you can be sure that the whole thing is dodgy if Vought is involved.
Just in time to tide fans over till the following season, “Gen V” was revealed around the time when “The Boys” season three came to an end earlier this year. The R-rated series centres on a gang of superheroes attending the only university that accepts them and the action-packed silliness that follows. According to a press release, “[It] investigates the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they test their moral, sexual, and physical boundaries while fighting for the greatest contracts in the finest cities.” It has all the heart, sarcasm, and raunch of “The Boys” and is a cross between a college show and “The Hunger Games.”
