Intro
Set at Godolkin University, America’s only college exclusively for young adult superheroes (and run by Vought International), Gen V is described as an irreverent, R-rated series that explores the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the best contracts in the best cities. Part college show, part Hunger Games — with all the heart, satire and raunch of The Boys.
