Notes
- Homelander was created by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson where he made his first appearance in The Boys v1 #3 (November, 2006).
- In an interview on Newsarama, Ennis said on the character, "Yeah, well the Homelander to me is an almost entirely negative character. He is really just a series of unpleasant urges kept in check by his own intelligence, which is enough to understand that he can have anything he wants so long as he doesn’t push his luck too far... It might help to think of the Homelander as having all the self control of let’s say a fourteen year old."
