Warning ! Spoilers in the lead for The Boys Season 4 !
Summary
I am already quite sure thatThe Boyswill kill this supe character after his epic season 4 repurchase , but I am still pleading for a different event . Since time of year 1 , Amazon’sThe Boyshas get hold of a no - grasp - barred approach towards character deaths . From its opening episode itself , the show establish that , in its world of morally skewed superheroes , no one is truly good , and anyone can go as a result of one error from an overpowered supe . owe to this , Hughie ’s arc start with his girlfriend Robin ’s murder , set the tint for the show ’s unforgiving approach path towards character fates .
Despite having super strength and gamy enduringness at their administration , even thesupe characters inThe Boysare no less vulnerable than the regular humans . This is why many pretty strong supes like Blue Hawk , Mesmer , Popclaw , and the OG Black Noir have meet with brutal and sudden deaths . I am afraid that after redeeming one of its main supe characters in time of year 4,The Boysis gradually setting up his death , keep its movement of kill appealing characters to maintain high wager .
Apart from walking through supe satire , action , and dramatic event , Amazon ’s The Boys season 4 also features some memorable songs in some of its best prospect .

A-Train’s Redemption Might Be Setting Up A Death He Doesn’t Deserve
A-Train’s Doom Seems Imminent After His Season 4 Redemption
InThe Boysseason 3 ’s endingarc , A - Train was already on his way to find redemption when he bulge out question Homelander ’s ways rather of mindlessly following his orders . Although his comrade still seems to be mad at him inThe Boysseason 4,A - Train continues to take the air on the course of redemption by in secret helping Billy Butcher and the crew . He put his liveliness on the line by sneaking behind Homelander ’s back and serving as an informant for the boy . However , he seems way more well-situated with himself and his abilities after taking the morally right path .
From portray A - Train as another selfish and pitiless supe , The Boyshas completely flipped his playscript and call on him into one of the most likeable graphic symbol from the series .
One of A - Train ’s big sorrow was unexpectedly pour down Hughie ’s girlfriend . In time of year 4 , he makes reparation for that as well by helping Hughie and at long last earning his esteem . The Boysseason 4 ’s episode 6also features an awe - inspiring scene where A - power train drop MM at a infirmary and feels proud when a child looks up to him . From impersonate A - Train as another selfish and remorseless supe , The Boyshas completely flipped his script and plough him into one of the most likable grapheme from the series . This is scary because his redemption might have already sealed his fate .

The Boys Season 3 Made Black Noir This Likable Before Killing Him Too
The Boys Take The “Kill Your Darlings” Trope Too Seriously
The Boysnever truly redeem Black Noir , but made me and several other viewers empathize with him by giving a glimpse of his tragical past . Although Black Noir was ab initio depicted as a ruthless sea wolf and Homelander ’s most loyal enforcer , season 3 reveals that Noir lost his power to think after Soldier Boy viciously round him . He even experiences illusion of animated cartoon mascots from Buster Beaver ’s Pizza Restaurant , who present themselves as his fanciful best friends and help him deal with his hurt .
I could not help but experience regretful for Black Noir after seeing his tragical interactions with his notional Quaker and learning about his past with Soldier Boy . Unfortunately , just when I was starting to like him , The Boysseason 3 killed him off in its final episode . What made his demise even more tragic is thathe did not even snitch Homelander . He just struggled to tell him he was Homelander ’s son because of his unfitness to process his thoughts in good order . Given howThe Boyskilled Noir decent after making him more likable , A - Train ’s death does not seem too far .
While many buff believe of Homelander and Black Noir as equally knock-down - since they are ringer - Black Noir was really make to be even stronger .
A-Train’s The Boys Season 4 Death Would Be Too Predictable Now
The Boys Season 4 Must Avoid Being Predictable By Not Killing Him
Since A - Train has redeemed himself by betraying Homelander , Homelander will not spare him once he fall upon he has been facilitate the boys . However , feed howThe Boyshas previously kill or eradicated many characters , like Queen Meave , Black Noir , and Supersonic , after redeem them , A - Train ’s death seems a small too predictable . When it comes to character deaths , The Boyshas always thrived on capriciousness , which makes me a little hopeful that A - Train will finally survive .
Therefore , even though it seems unlikely that A - Train will outrun Homelander when the overpowered supe learns about his betrayal , I am hoping he will find out a agency to escape . Since he and the boys have buried their beef , the boy might eventually save him before it is too former . Regardless of what fall out inThe Boysseason 4 ’s future episodes , I just desire the show to , for once , show some mercy towards a ransomed character , and defy the expectations surrounding his fate .
