Who is Polarity in The Boys spinoff Gen V?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Gen V is expanding the world of Amazon Prime Video's hit series The Boys, revealing how young Supes become celebrities like the Seven and introducing a large cast of characters to boot. As The Boys focuses primarily on what's happening at Vought International, it's unsurprising viewers haven't met newbie Supes like Marie Moreau , Andre Anderson , or even Golden Boy prior to the spinoff.
Polarity Is The Boys' Version Of Magneto Gen V hasn't revealed a ton about Andre's father just yet, but Polarity seems to be The Boys' version of Magneto. Many characters in The Boys universe parody Marvel and DC heroes, offering dark and comical takes on these pop culture icons. Polarity's ability to manipulate metal suggests he's inspired by the X-Men villain. Polarity also appears to be somewhat nefarious, just like Magneto.
Gen V's Polarity & Andre Story Copies Marvel's Magneto & Polaris Polarity's power and villainous nature both connect him to Marvel's Magneto, but they aren't the only signs this Gen V character is a play on the X-Men villain. His and Andre's story throughout the first three episodes of Gen V is reminiscent of Magneto and Polaris' in Marvel Comics. Polaris, also known as Lorna Dane, is one of Magneto's children in the X-Men comics.
It's the same reason Gen V's Indira Shetty, another important figure at Godolkin University, never shows up in The Boys despite being in contact with Vought leaders like Ashley Barrett . Both Indira and Polarity seem to frequent school fundraisers and similar events rather than the corporate and political gatherings that take place throughout The Boys. Additionally, they may be trying to downplay their relationship with Vought and vice versa.
