Finally - Butcher's backstory
For a number of issues now, we have known Butcher is a violent, yet calculated man with a real hatred of superheroes. But nobody quite knows the details of his life. Until now. This story sees Butcher standing over his dead father before his funeral, outlining his life and why he hates him.
A great background to this mysterious Negan-like character, we finally see quite what Homelander did to his wife, how he became so twisted and violent and get a glimpse of what he has planned.
Some cliché'd London upbringing scenes but good to put meat on the character's bones.
