About
Everyone Beats Homelander or Weak Homelander refers to a series of social media posts and a viral debate that describes how fictional characters, not necessarily powerful per se, will definitely defeat The Boys supervillain Homelander should they be in a fight. Ignited by a fan art depiction of Homelander fighting off the entire Justice League on his own, the meme gained virality on Twitter in early September 2022.
Origin
On March 18th, 2021, artist Connor MacGregor posted a fan art illustration of supervillain Homelander from the television and comic series The Boys fighting off the superhero team Justice League on his own. The fan art (shown below) received over 1,700 likes on Instagram[1] in one year.
On September 5th, 2022, Twitter[2] user @directorsmiso tweeted the fan art, commenting, "Lmao this is insane 💀." The tweet received over 1,700 retweets, 1,700 quote tweets and 20,200 likes in three days (shown below, left). Later that day, Twitter[3][4] users @MaceAhWinduand @THELIFE0FTRIBE quote tweeted the post, expressing doubt that Homelander would be able to oppose Superman, let alone the entire Justice League. The tweets gained over 20 retweets and 1,200 likes and 600 retweets and 9,700 likes, respectively (shown below, center and right).
Spread
Starting on September 5th, 2022, users on Twitter shared humorous posts that imagined various fictional characters, not necessarily superheroes or even powerful beings, beating Homelander in a fight. For example, Twitter[5] user @AquelaTrapp posted a tweet that gained over 110 retweets and 1,000 likes in three days (shown below, left). Twitter[6] user @worldofcardbord posted a panel from the superhero comics series Invincible, writing, "Super heroes with no kill rules after punching Homelander one time." The tweet gained over 80 retweets and 1,900 likes in three days (shown below, right).
In the following days, users on Twitter made more posts imagining Homelander getting defeated by various fictional characters. For example, on September 6th, 2022, Twitter[7] user @DatChaosGuy made a post about Mordecai and Rigby from Regular Show defeating Homelander that gained over 980 retweets and 15,300 likes in two days (shown below, left).
