To be expected, when Lamplighter returns to The Boys’ lives, he unlocks a lot of emotional baggage for all involved and changes up that dynamic.
His past also came to a tragic crossroads with The Boys, as he was a catalyst in the anti-supe group breaking up all those years before.
No telling if that story will be completely encompassed in Season 2, or if we might see Shawn Ashmore returning in the already confirmed Season 3.
Now for the TV set-up: Lamplighter is a former member of The Seven, and was quite the superstar before making his mysterious absence ahead of Starlight joining the group.
