Black Noir.
Part Six: My Name––Is Michael Caine. Before Butcher and the Homelander can have their showdown,
Black Noir reveals himself as the mastermind behind the torment of both: a secret clone of Homelander, he had been grown by Vought in order to kill and replace the Homelander in case he ever went rogue, only because he never did, Black Noir had begun impersonating the Homelander and committing numerous atrocities (including raping Butcher's wife) in his name, while
gaslighting the Homelander into believing he had a
split personality, with the ultimate goal of gaining clearance to kill him. Accepting the situation, Butcher and an enraged Homelander engage Black Noir in combat across the White House, with Black Noir quickly killing the Homelander but being wounded enough for Butcher to enact a killing blow. As the military wipe out the Homelander's army with anti-Compound V missiles provided to them by Butcher, Butcher executes Black Noir on the White House lawn before preparing to enact his final plan. ==Reception==
