Warning! Spoilers for The Boys Season 5 follow:
Who is Bombsight in The Boys Season 5?
According to the Episode 6 teaser, Bombsight is a World War 2 era supe played by Stranger Things star Mason Dye. Like Soldier Boy, Bombsight was given V-One, the original super serum, making him essentially immortal. He'll also appear alongside Soldier Boy in the upcoming spinoff Vought Rising, set to premiere in 2027.
Homelander believes Bombsight still possesses some V-One serum and very much wants it for himself. This sets up what could be a brutal confrontation as Homelander's quest for godhood reaches its climax.
The character's introduction this late in the series isn't coincidental — Bombsight represents another link to the original Compound V experiments and the dark history that created today's supes.

What does Homelander want with V-One?
Homelander's obsession with V-One stems from his belief that it will grant him true immortality and secure his ascension to godhood. As of Episode 5, he and Soldier Boy have been on a mission to find the original super serum, with Homelander convinced it's the key to ultimate power.
The teaser suggests this quest is about to pay off. Visual hints include someone crashing into grass — possibly Homelander himself, fresh from taking V-One and newly powered up. This aligns with previous Season 5 trailer footage showing Homelander exploding with enhanced eye laser power.
If these theories prove accurate, Episode 6 could mark the moment Homelander truly becomes unstoppable, setting up his rule from the White House as teased in earlier previews.
Will Soldier Boy betray Homelander again?
The Episode 6 teaser includes a striking shot of Soldier Boy punching Homelander, suggesting their uneasy alliance might be cracking. Given Soldier Boy's history of switching sides when it suits him, this potential betrayal wouldn't be surprising.
Whether he's acting in self-defence or turning on his son for more nefarious reasons remains unclear. What's certain is that their partnership was always built on mutual convenience rather than genuine father-son loyalty.
This tension adds another layer of unpredictability to Homelander's V-One quest. Even if he achieves immortality, he'll still need to contend with his volatile father.
Is Homelander immune to the supe-killing virus?
The teaser includes footage of someone bleeding in a white room while Homelander looks on, with Sister Sage standing outside. This appears to be a test confirming Homelander's immunity to the supe-killing virus The Boys have developed.
If accurate, this would eliminate one of the few remaining threats to Homelander's dominance. The virus was supposed to be The Boys' ultimate weapon against him, but immunity would make him virtually untouchable.
This development would force Billy Butcher and his team to find entirely new ways to stop Homelander's march toward world domination — with only three episodes left to do it.

What this means for The Boys ending
With major character deaths already mounting in Season 5 — A-Train and Firecracker have both fallen to Homelander — the stakes couldn't be higher. "As our boss Eric [Kripke] has said, don't get attached to any characters on this show because everyone's head is potentially on the block," Antony Starr recently warned fans.
The introduction of Bombsight and Homelander's potential power boost suggests the finale will be anything but conventional. Unlike controversial endings that spare major characters, The Boys appears committed to delivering genuine consequences.
