Eric Kripke, the mastermind behind Supernatural, showed his Midas touch long before Hollywood acknowledged it. After creating one of the longest-running primetime dramas in history, Kripke struggled to replicate his success with subsequent projects. However, everything changed when he sold The Boys to Amazon. The hard-R comic book adaptation became a scathing satire of 21st century America, with Homelander serving as a proxy for Donald Trump. The show's commercial success catapulted Kripke to the top at Amazon, leading to the expansion of the franchise with spinoffs and animated anthologies. As Kripke prepares for season four of The Boys, he reveals his bliss in alienating woke-phobic viewers and skewering late-stage capitalism. Despite the challenges of the TV industry's market correction and the need for budget battles, Kripke remains a humanist at heart, infusing his work with heart and moral complexity.
