Gen V season 2 has arrived, and the first four episodes have been quite a doozy. Now that we're halfway into the new season, we can only imagine what dangers await Marie Moreau and her friends as they navigate sophomore year at Godolkin U.
Don't forget: the events of Gen V season 2 will set up The Boys season 5, bringing the ever-popular Prime Video show to a close (though a prequel spin-off series is on the way).
