The Boys' Vought International company advertises Homelander Diapers while attacking Starlight to celebrate National Parents Day.
The Boys is celebrating National Parents Day with the sale of Homelander Diapers.
Posted on the Twitter account for Vought International, the superhero company from the Prime Video drama, is an advertisement for Homelander Diapers that simultaneously serves as an attack on Starlight (Erin Moriarty). An image of the American-made baby product shows off its spangled, white design, with the caption reading, "What do Starlight and her diapers have in common? They're both full of crap!" The promotion promises that parents who return their Starlight Diapers to stores will get a full refund, so long as they make an exchange to purchase from the new line of Homelander Diapers.

The post highlights where Homelander (Antony Starr) and Starlight stand following Season 3 of The Boys. Towards the beginning of the season, the two were made to look like a happy power couple in the public eye by Vought, though the real truth behind their supe relationship was that Starlight wanted Homelander dead for his evil actions. Later on, Starlight not only publicly outs Homelander for being a horrible psychopath to her millions of followers online, but also captures him on live video admitting to his murder and threatening her boyfriend, Hughie Campbell (Jack Quaid).
By the end of Season 3, Starlight has quit working for Vought as a member of the Seven super team and the company has severed ties with the supe, claiming that she is lying about Homelander and Vought's actions. Now, Starlight's secret identity -- Annie January -- is public, and she has joined The Boys, something that never happens in the original comic series created by writer Garth Ennis and artist Darick Robertson. Where the show moves forward with this change in Season 4 remains to be seen, but fans of the series will have a spinoff to watch before the next season releases.

Production is currently underway on a college-themed spinoff to The Boys, titled Gen V. The show will pick up after the events of The Boys Season 3, and it has been teased that there will be overlap between the two series. The spinoff will explore the younger generation of superheroes training at Godolkin Univeristy, named after the leader of the G-Men from The Boys comics, an obvious spin on Marvel's X-Men.
The first three seasons of The Boys are available to stream on Prime Video. Gen V does not have an official release date as of writing.
