THE BOYS SEASON 3 REVIEW
Amazon Prime’s hit satirical takedown of superheroes based on the Garth Ennis/Darick Robertson comic, The Boys is back for its third year. The fallout from last season’s finale sees Vought International on immediate damage control following the reveal of Stormfront’s Nazi identity and rehabilitation of their golden boy Homelander, who is slowly becoming more unhinged behind the scenes by the day. Meanwhile, our titular Boys led as usual by Billy Butcher are handed a secret weapon in hopes of finally bringing down Homelander and Vought as a whole in the long-thought dead supe Soldier Boy (Jensen Ackles). Our super team of critics consisting of Rose, Dogget, Jordan, and Eliot discuss what they consider to be the best season yet and have a big old Herogasm it further in their spoilers discussion.

YOUR REVIEWERS
Rose Mattox (Screener Squad, Eye On The Prize)
Originally hailing from Austin then Houston, Rose has been an avid movie and TV fanatic pretty much since birth. She spends spending her days watching Star Trek reruns, 60’s spy fiction, and Audrey Hepburn movies with her beloved minion (see: dog Riley). She also occasionally dabbles in comedy, screenwriting, as well as graphic and interior design. Rose has been contributing to One of Us since 2019 as a member of the Screener Squad, as well as making regular appearances on Eye on the Prize during awards season. She can be found on Twitter at @nightattheopera.
Danny Dogget (Screener Squad)
Hey persons, it’s your favorite canine Dogget! As many of you know, I don’t identify as a critic as much as a classy shock jock. That being said, I do my best to give all of you a well-balanced review filled with my true opinions and hopefully a few laughs. You can occasionally find me on other persons podcast like Mission Impodible (that’ll be 10 dollars Nathan). For the most part, you can find me doing reviews on Oneofus.net.
Jordan Cobb (Screener Squad)
Born with a comic book in one hand, a camera in the other, and in front of the television as WrestleMania played out, Jordan Worth Cobb was thus birthed into this crazy world. A Digital Filmmaking major from the University of Central Arkansas, Jordan has done it all in film from directing, writing, editing, and producing in addition to skills involved in film and TV criticism, journalism, and years of podcasting experience. On any given day, her ADHD riddled brain bounces focus from film to pro wrestling to TV to superheroes to noir to video games to espionage and yes, even to sports. She played little league you know. For more of this eccentric nerd, you can follow her on Twitter here and read her original writings on Deepest Corners of My Notebook.
Eliot Nelson (Screener Squad, Staff Writer)
Soaked in the soggy rains of Seattle, Eliot developed a love of sci-fi, movies, cartoons, heavy metal, and all of geekdom.
