Creator of ‘The Boys’ Hints at Collaboration with Lynda Carter in Support of Kamala Harris
Kamala Harris is inspiring a possible superhero crossover … ’cause “Wonder Woman” actress Lynda Carter may soon face off with “The Boys” character Homelander in support of the Democratic nominee.
Here’s the deal … a few days ago, Lynda tweeted she was putting up a Bat Signal for “Geeks and Nerds for Harris Walz” — telling her fans to get behind the Dems for the upcoming election.
Welp, Eric Kripke — creator of “The Boys” and hit fantasy show “Supernatural” — responded to the tweet Sunday morning … introducing himself, résumé first, to Lynda.
I’m in. I created #Supernatural & the TV version of #TheBoys. It’s the Sam/Dean/Castiel/Wonder Woman/Homelander cross over we didn’t know we needed. #SPNFamily #GeeksandNerdsforHarrisWalz

Kripke tells Carter he’s got the crossover fans never knew they needed … mentioning characters from “Supernatural” as well as Homelander — the villainous anti-Superman who leads “The Seven” in the show with Lynda’s Wonder Woman.
EK’s mentioned the connection between “The Boys” and the political world before … revealing in a 2022 Rolling Stone interview he saw parallels between Antony Starr‘s Homelander and Donald Trump.
Lynda responded to Eric saying she’s down for the crossover … which obviously will have some politicos seeing obvious parallels to November’s election.
It’s just the latest in the wave of celebrity support for Harris … who received endorsements from Steph Curry, Oprah, Pink, John Legend and a ton more at the DNC last week.
Celebs and superheroes coming out for Harris … we’ll have to see if it results in a presidential victory.
