Mortal Kombat 1 now has Homelander as a DLC character, and players are already finding cool Easter eggs with the supervillain. Homelander, from the phenomenally popular Prime Video show The Boys , launches in NetherRealm's gory fighting game with a number of references, but one Brutality in particular was found to include unique dialogue that hat tips an infamous scene. Warning!

Blindspot is blind but possesses superhuman hearing and agility. Homelander, clearly unimpressed, bashes Blindspot’s ears in, declaring him “just another useless f***ing blind guy.” All Mortal Kombat 1 characters have Brutalities — unique moves that end a match in a particularly brutal fashion.
They’re triggered by doing an extra input command on top of a specific combo ender or move that wins the final round. Most of the characters in the game have six brutalities, but ever since Mortal Kombat 1 launched in September last year, players have discovered secret Brutalities, too . Homelander’s Brutality is similar to the ear bash he performs on Blindspot in the show, leaving his opponent screaming in agony on the floor.
But, if Homelander performs this Brutality on Kenshi, he says the line from the show: “just another useless f***ing blind guy.” Kenshi, Mortal Kombat fans will know, is a blind .
