The Boys Fans Are Not Happy About the Removal of Fan-Favorite Character From the Finale

Fans are disappointed that Soldier Boy wasn’t in the season finale. However, series creator Eric Kripke explained the decision in an interview with Collider, which was widely shared on X (formerly Twitter). Kripke said Homelander killed Soldier Boy because he couldn’t bear the thought of being abandoned by another father figure. Homelander’s issues stem from his troubled relationship with his own father and his fear of being abandoned by his son, Ryan. He simply couldn’t handle being left by ‘his dad’ again, especially since Soldier Boy’s previous departure wasn’t his fault.
