.....
Roger had just returned to the world of The Boys, unaware of the drastic changes that had taken place due to his involvement.
The Seven had undergone a massive reorganization, with Stormfront becoming the new leader.
Tek Knight, who was originally fated to die, had now founded a new entertainment group focused on topics related to superheroes, especially Roger.
Compound V had still been exposed, and Vought International once again used supervillains to divert public attention, while increasing the perceived importance of superheroes.
From the moment Roger entered and then left this world, it began hurtling down an entirely unknown path. The original storyline had been completely altered, and any advantage Roger might have had from his knowledge of the original plot had vanished.
But Roger wasn't worried.
This time, he hadn't returned alone from his journey through the Marvel Universe, he brought along some help.
Captain America wouldn't be joining, as his presence was still needed in his original world, even though he was technically a wanted fugitive there.
Wanda and Vision wouldn't be coming either, though they had initially planned to help. However, after learning that the Infinity Stones would lose their powers outside their own universe, Vision decided against the trip. Wanda, of course, wouldn't leave her boyfriend behind.
Spider-Man wanted to come, but his studies prevented him from doing so. No matter how much he wanted to save the world, Peter Parker wasn't going to skip school and disappoint Aunt May.
The other Avengers also had their reasons for staying behind, but fortunately, not everyone chose to sit this one out.
Bucky Barnes (the Winter Soldier) and Natasha Romanoff (Black Widow) joined Roger's mission, and Ant-Man and the Wasp decided to take this opportunity for a little getaway.
Thor, originally planning to return and lead the people of Asgard, saw how well they were doing under Valkyrie's leadership and opted for some interdimensional travel instead. He hoped that someday, in a parallel universe, he might catch a glimpse of his parents and brother, even from afar.
But aside from them, there was one more heavyweight ally who had joined Roger on this journey, Bruce Banner, the Hulk.
Banner had long considered leaving Earth, and upon hearing that Natasha was joining Roger, he immediately decided to tag along.
So now, Roger's interdimensional superhero squad consisted of Thor, Banner, Scott Lang (Ant-Man), Hope van Dyne (the Wasp), Bucky Barnes, and Natasha Romanoff.
With the team assembled, they boarded a spaceship Roger had procured, shrank themselves down, and stowed away on Roger's person as he passed through the portal to The Boys' world.
The familiar sensation of being pulled through space, the same loss of control over his bio-field, Roger found himself back in the very room where he had disappeared.
Perhaps because it was his second time crossing over, he felt a subtle shift in his bio-field, as if it might eventually allow him to control the timing of these interdimensional jumps after a few more crossings.
Upon returning, Roger immediately learned the state of the world from Tek Knight, as well as the crisis facing Starlight and her friends. Without wasting any time, he rushed to their aid, playing the part of the returning hero.
"Homelander… it's really you!"
Starlight exclaimed, visibly moved as she looked at Roger.
Roger sighed and replied, "I told you, I've changed my title to Superman now… but whatever, it's not a big deal…"
"Homelander…"
Before Starlight could say more, Stormfront's voice suddenly interrupted. She too was staring at Roger with excitement in her eyes.
The way she looked at him made Roger's skin crawl, it was as if someone who had finally found their god, or like a wife reunited with her long-lost husband.
Seeing Stormfront's expression, Roger felt a series of question marks pop up in his head.
He knew full well what kind of person Stormfront was, she had lived since Vought's inception during World War II, watching her husband and daughter grow old.
Her life's work was devoted to Vought, with her dream of creating a superhuman race of white supremacists, and finding a partner who would never age, just like her.
Thus, she had her sights set on Homelander, Vought's most perfect creation, a man made by humans to be a 'god.'
This was the original backstory for Stormfront.
But Roger assumed that her feelings for Homelander had developed only after prolonged contact with him, after observing his actions. This would explain why she initially behaved in ways that would anger Homelander.
Logically, Stormfront shouldn't have developed any affection for Roger now, especially since the two had never even met.
Yet here she was, excited to see him…
Regardless of what was going through Stormfront's mind, she and Roger were still enemies.
Ignoring her enthusiasm, Roger coldly remarked,
"So, you're the new leader of the Seven? Not bad."
Before she could respond, Roger continued,
"But regardless of your position, we, the Super League, are the ones tasked with hunting down supervillains. So, can you leave?"
Roger's dismissive attitude stunned Stormfront. She glanced back at Shockwave, who stood awkwardly nearby, and then at the drones floating around Roger. Taking a deep breath, she plastered on her media-friendly smile and said,
"Homelander, we're both superheroes. We share a responsibility to catch these villains. And if it weren't for your interference, the criminals wouldn't have escaped in the first place. Now you're telling us to leave? Are you trying to cover up your mistake?"
Roger glanced at the embarrassed Starlight and the sheepish Kimiko, who looked like a child caught doing something wrong. With a sigh, he said,
"No, I just think that you, as Vought's superheroes, should keep your distance from us. After all, you belong to Vought. We belong to ourselves."
"Y…"
Stormfront couldn't believe Roger was openly expressing hostility toward Vought on camera. Just as she was about to speak, Roger interrupted her again,
"Also, the criminal who escaped, we've already captured him."
"What?"
Stormfront froze. Did Queen Maeve manage to catch him somehow? She was, after all, the only member of the Super League who wasn't here at the moment.
But she was wrong. The person who had captured Kenji wasn't Maeve, nor any other superhero she knew. Instead, it was a short-haired, axe-wielding blonde man, clad in what appeared to be ancient armor.
Holding his axe in one hand and Kenji slung over his shoulder in the other, he approached and tossed the captured man at their feet.
Taking advantage of the moment, Roger turned to the camera drones and introduced,
"Let me introduce this hero to everyone, his name is Thor. Yes, the Thor from mythology, the God of Thunder. And no, this isn't his codename, nor is it a title he gave himself. He really is Thor, the God of Thunder from Asgard.
"A true god, existing in our world!"
