Welcome to the Heavy Spoilers show and I'm so happy that Lamplighter is finally getting some much needed character development after he was skipped over in the comics...

Lamplighter, how we barely knew thee, however, we've pieced together everything that we could collect on the character and throughout this video we're gonna go through the ins and outs of his backstory, powers and more.

There will be some spoilers here so if you haven't seen up to episode seven of season two then I highly recommend that you turn off now. Make sure you subscribe to the channel for videos like this every day and smash the thumbs up button if you love the boys.

Ok so when we first come across Lamplighter in the comics the character is crawling around in his own feces mumbling about his fire.

Before we ever met him, Lamplighter had been killed by Colonel Mallory and thus he was in a zombie like state.

Though we haven't witnessed it in the show so far, in the source material, compound v has several negative properties to it including an almost ressurection like quality that fires up the neurons in ones brain at the instant of death.

This means that though the Supes are technically dead, they're reanimated and are capable of moving around and talking.

However, one shouldn't view it so much as them having a life and due to their lack of brain cells caused by the end of their life, they are very much brain dead.

That's why when you look up quotes on the guy, most of them are just stuff like WAR MA PARRRRR...! 

Sound like some of the comments I get...haha you succkkkkaaas (got eeem)

Now this is performed by the company to make it seem like their heroes are invincible and even in the face of death they will always come back. We've seen things like this carried out in comic books like The Death Of Superman and Batman Knightfall in which the characters were seemingly defeated but they came back stronger than ever.

Vought follow a similar sort of procedure and they come up with elaborate backstories on how characters died and then were able to return.

However, it's all just a PR stunt and after the heroes are paraded around for a couple of months, they are quoute unquote retired by the company and cast to the side.
