Well, season two is certainly introducing supes that will overshadow HL and his power monopoly. I am guessing HL will have an epiphany - either send him waaaay over the edge or straighten him right up to clean house properly - we will see!

Still suspect the season finale will involve him engineering Stormfront having a run in with Kimoko which won't end well for either lady

**Statistx**

I straight up expected Stormfront to have a dick. Cover up by gender change and instead of what they did in the show, she would have been the comic style Stormfront in the past.

**trexmeyer**

Okay, it's bad.

**Dysartes**

I take it this is to do with something that happens in episode six, trex?

**AduroT**

Try to keep an open mind.

Vas has made it in? Cool.

Has Hughie tried his vodka yet?

I don’t believe the man with the trouser anaconda was named. No reference was made to vodka.

**trexmeyer**

He was named in the credits.

**MDSW**

Yep, eagerly awaiting episode 6 - will try to watch tonight when wifey falls asleep, as it is not her thing.

**AduroT**

Saw that ending coming.

Was splendidly ikky, still not sure if Stormfront acted alone or is still in cahoots with the Church despite her earlier dismissal of them, as the unpersoning of the Archer showed they don't take kindly to defection, then again given her powers she's not someone to upset

Also interesting to see where the Noir story goes after the minor reveal

I think I'm done with the show.

Makes sense. The premise is interesting, but I don't know if the writing is good enough to justify season after season.

**nels1031**

I was talking with a co-worker about the same. I like it, but I think it will work best as a finite product. 1 more season is all it needs.

The good part is Kripke is known for having timelines and wanting them stuck to. He bailed on supernatural when they didnt end it season 5. And they have indicated they have a set story to tell.

Also its totes the church thats responsible. Note the fella in orange who was affected.

**Dysartes**

The source material was a 72 issue run, plus 3 6-issue miniseries (I'm ignoring the new "Hello Becky" stuff for now, given the big time jump).

Given that amount of source material, and the fact it looks like certain characters/plotlines are being skipped entirely, 3 (or maybe 4) seasons of eight episodes a time is probably about right.

If anything, I'd be more concerned about the spin-off series that's been fast-tracked into development...

That scene genuinely made me laugh.. I remarked as I was watching it "wonder what is going to be the other side of that door?" when it was knocking, I did not expect that

**Ouze**

I read some, but not all, of the comics.

Who is behind the head popping?

**AduroT**

No spoilers that ain’t happened in the show yet!

**Ouze**

I don't think this happened in the comics (right?)

The only person that has been hinted at is...

But that seems like a red herring imo.

... the escapee from the research place? She has the full body pop ability and its the only one like that in the show so far, that I know of.

But that seems like a red herring imo.

Just started reading the comic.. All I will say is "OMG"

Bloody hell..

Some great artwork though, and you can see how much influence it had on the series (even some of the lines and scenes lifted directly from it).

**Eihnlazer**

Did not see that gak coming.........

Consider me hooked till next season.
