The Boys offered glimpses of Homelander at his breaking point, which doesn't bode well for anyone caught in his tantrums. Showrunner Eric Kripke hinted the fans will finally see the supe's complete meltdown in the series finale.
Homelander could go full rage mode in The Boys' Season 5 finale. Showrunner Eric Kripke teased as much by describing the supe's mental state coming into the final season. "He's literally all trauma," he told Variety. That could suggest he's finally lost his humanity; he now has unfettered power as Vought overlord and United States dictator. He also has the support of a supe army, and that validation could push him to sever his relationship with Ryan. These fly in the face of his impending mortality, however, which fuels internal conflicts he "resolved" in Season 4 when he massacred those scientists at the Vought laboratory.

But just from a story point of, you don’t have to keep storylines going into a season beyond that really lets you blow the doors off it in a really exciting way.”
