It’s about to get diabolically lit! Amazon Prime finally released a teaser trailer and first look at the much-awaited The Boys’ spinoff series, Gen V.
The story revolves around college supes battling each other to be named as a legitimate superhero. The concept of “the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the school’s top ranking” seems eerily similar to Hunger Games, only this time, the contestants have different abilities. While the teaser has shown all major characters – both new and returning – some details are still blurry. With that, let’s breakdown the video and see some minor details you probably missed.
Godolkin University: School of Crime Fighting
It was revealed that the institute where ‘Gen V’ will take place is called Godolking University. If you read the comics, you would know how sick and insane John Godolkin was.

Godolkin is the evil founder of a group of young supes called “G-Men”. It turns out, Godolkin was a manipulative maniac who sexually abuses his so-called “children”. If Gen V follows this storyline, it will be even more diabolic that the supposed plot of the series.

Marie’s (Jaz Cinclaire) powers is similar to Victoria Neuman’s (in a way)
The lead actress of the series might, Marie (played by Jaz Sinclaire) might have similar abilities to The Boys’ Victoria Neuman.

It is not clear but Marie seems like she can control blood which means she can sort of blood bend to create a deadly weapon with her bare hands. Prior to Gen V, Marie was already teased in season 3 of The Boys. As shown in the photo below, Marie was once sheltered by The Red Institute, a Vought International subsidiary facility for orphaned supes.
