While at first glance some might think that Hancock stands no chance in front of Homelander who could laser his opponent’s eyes out, we are here to remind you that Hancock is not quite easy to defeat. For starters, the man is immortal! As it turns out, netizens agree that a Hancock vs. Homelander battle will end with the former emerging victorious.

Homelander or Hancock – Who’s More Powerful?

Billy Butcher and the rest of his team have been trying to end Antony Starr’s Homelander for four seasons now. They even brought in the guy’s dad to try and kill him but things didn’t quite go according to their plan now, did they?

In the comic books, Homelander meets his ultimate end at the hands of Black Noir but Prime Video’s The Boys showed in season three that even he is no match against the leader of The Seven.

Now, the question is, is there anyone out there who can defeat the evil clone of Superman once and for all? Well, fans of the superhero genre wholeheartedly believe that Will Smith’s Hancock is the man for the job.

Hancock is roughly three thousand years old and while he was initially a bit too arrogant to do good things for the world, he eventually decides to mend his public image and become a true superhero. Well, unlike Homelander who couldn’t care less about us mortal beings.

Let’s talk about the two contenders’ powers now. The first one up is Homelander who possesses superhuman strength, hearing, and smell along with durability, stamina, and speed. He can fly, shoot lasers out of his eyes, and can heal himself in no time. All in all, it’s your usual superhero package.

Coming to Hancock, the superhero possesses almost all of that which Homelander does plus some more. He has superhuman agility, reflexes, and immortality. On top of that Hancock can control high winds and tornadoes, controlling them as per his command. The only weakness he has is the danger of losing his immortality if he spends too much time in proximity to Mary Embrey. As for Homelander, perhaps a nice tall glass of milk could do the trick!

Hancock’s iconic scenes involve stopping a full-speed train with his body without bearing the brunt of the collision and flying to space to carve a heart on the literal moon! Then there’s Homelander who recently ripped another supe in half just by using his bare hands. Honestly, it’s tough to decide who’ll win the fight.
