2. Homelander’s Milk Fetish

Scenes that expose Homelander's obsession with drinking breast milk are both unflinchingly uncomfortable and sheerly brilliant at the same time. Such moments touch deeply the twisted need of Homelander for control, vulnerability, and, at the same time, power, to create an almost paradoxical layer to his character. Starr brings eerie tenderness to those moments, making his quiet desperation all the more disturbing. Though bizarre, these scenes subtly point out Homelander's emotional immaturity and his constant search for comfort and a maternal figure.
