- You actually didn't see. - Hey, old man.
Try this.
(bomb beeping)
- [Bystander] Get away!
(bystander screams)
(car thuds)
(explosion booms)
- [Stephanie] Hello and welcome
to a special edition episode of "Superhero Club."
Your go-to show for all things
comic book-inspired on Amazon Prime.
I'm your host, Stephanie Williams.
Before we get too far in,
if you want more superhero content like this,
don't forget to like this video
and subscribe to our channel.
Now without further ado, this episode in particular
was inspired by the Amazon Prime
Video Original Movie, "Samaritan."
(dramatic violin music)
The movie stars the legendary Sylvester Stallone.
Stallone plays a superhero named Smith
who's living his life as a sanitation worker
since his crime-fighting life ended long ago
after an epic battle with his nemesis.
(fists thudding)
(assailant grunts) (glass shatters)
(dramatic violin music)
- Go on.
Beat it.
- [Stephanie] In "Samaritan," Stallone's character
Smith joins the rest of the Amazon Prime Video
superhero lineup and that got us to thinking.
What would be some other complimentary post-hero jobs
for our other suits we've gotten to know
in shows like "The Boys" and "Invincible?"
All right, so let's kick things off first
with the characters from "Invincible."
We have to start with everyone's favorite daddy, Omni-Man.
What could really work for Omni-Man
and the rest of the human population on earth
is if he became a sandwich artist.
- What?
- [Stephanie] Hear me out.
He could own a small shop somewhere in some small town
in some state that has not been destroyed yet by him.
He needs something to conquer and rule over,
so let it be deli meats.
He could bring all these elements together
to make mouthwatering deliciousness
to rule local taste buds.
I mean if anything,
that just sounds a whole lot safer for everybody.
- Oh, that's great.
- [Stephanie] Next up is our dear boy,
our titular character, Invincible.
Now we've already seen him at work
at his local fast food restaurant
but that was before Mark's powers decided to kick in.
- It's about time.
- [Stephanie] Mark is extremely passionate about helping
others, so what if he went into occupational therapy?
He would be the one to know firsthand
what it takes mentally and physically to overcome an injury.
Or in his case, several injuries.
(fist thuds) (Invincible grunts)
- Hello, boy.
- [Stephanie] Battle Beast probably won't be retiring
from completely obliterating anyone but if he did,
he would make a great retirement home dance instructor.
Something about that rage and desire to destroy
literally anyone foolish enough to fight him
says there's a sweet, docile kitten
just waiting for the right environment to have fun again
and what better way to do so than with
some senior citizens who need to socialize?
(bodies thudding)
- There is no honor in killing insects.
- [Stephanie] Now that could go completely,
horribly wrong but we'll use our imaginations for that.
- You guys just messed up.
- [Stephanie] If Rex can make it to retirement,
he's another one of those characters
where it's looking real iffy.
I could see him becoming a reality TV personality.
He has a knack for being surrounded by drama,
be it self-inflicted or as a byproduct
of being at the wrong place at the wrong time
or the right place at the right time.
- I don't know why I keep doing this, I don't want to.
You know that, right?
- [Stephanie] He would make for amazing content
to get viewers tuning in every week.
Rex wouldn't be the type to retire
into a role that keeps him out of the public eye,
so this seems about right.
(Atom Eve swooshing)
Honestly for Atom Eve, the obvious pivot
would be to become an environmental activist,
something she's already kind of doing anyway.
She has the perfect power set for it
that will allow her to make both direct
and immediate impact and her desire and heart to do so
will make sure that that stays a longevity thing
and if the world of "Invincible" is anything
like our real world, they probably could use it.
- Try to keep up. (Atom Eve swooshing)
- [Stephanie] Now let's venture over
to the world of "The Boys," where retirement
of any kind is unlikely to happen
but let's pretend for a moment that it does.
- We got everything under control.
- [Stephanie] Homelander is a bit of a doozy
but I think we all know what would be best
for him in retirement and it's a dairy farmer.
It's either that or a wholesale
black market breast milk dealer.
- Are you thirsty?
- [Stephanie] Anything with milk, he'll excel at
and hopefully stay relaxed enough to keep the lunacy at bay.
The farm is a great place to raise a kid too, you know.
- Hi. - Spoiler alert.
Hopefully you've already watched Season Three of "The Boys"
and you've watched it all the way to its entirety because
Maeve already said what she planned on doing in retirement
and it's not too different from what
we would like Homelander to possibly go into.
I think Maeve would make an excellent farmer
and it's a nice, quiet place for her and her girlfriend
and she could probably use all the healing
that she can take at this time.
So let's hope Maeve is out there
somewhere on a farm surviving.
- This is important.
- [Stephanie] A-Train has dabbled
in quite a few things and all of them
he should probably not consider for retirement.
Energy drink, perhaps his video game 'cause wow,
that seemed like a really terrible idea but it's A-Train.
So in fact, if he would just do a full-blown pivot
to something very behind-the-scenes and out of the way
and requires no speed from him at all,
he'd make a great employee at the DMV.
- All right.
- [Stephanie] Well I'm sure The Deep would want
to retire into a career that will allow him access
to sea creatures 24-seven.
But what he really, really
would be great at would be parking enforcement.
- Wait, what?
- [Stephanie] He has great snitching skills
and I'm pretty sure his penmanship is just
good enough to make sure he writes that ticket
and he's definitely somebody,
whether he's a superhero or not, retired,
is probably not too scared telling them off.
So yes, parking enforcement would be great for The Deep.
All right, and last but not least is our girl Starlight
who I honestly feel like
would be excellent at flipping houses.
- Hmm?
- [Stephanie] I would assume that she probably
has a knack to become an electrician because of her
power set and also if, again, you've watched Season Three
of "The Boys" all the way through to the finale,
you know you need power and juice, Starlight's got it.
So "Starlight: House Flipper."
She would definitely have a show
and probably do fairly well at it.
(crowd cheers)

episode of "Superhero Club."
