Stan Edgar’s return to Gen V in Season 2, Episode 6 signals a shift in the battlefield against Homelander. The former Vought chief is a master of strategy, and his appearance injects a new layer of intrigue into the student-led fight.

In this installment, Edgar appears with his granddaughter Zoe to back Marie Moreau and her friends as danger closes in. He leads them to a hidden bunker stocked with resources drawn from years at Vought, offering a lifeline when the stakes are highest.
He also shares historical context about Vought and Project Odessa, drawing a line between Homelander’s powers and the experiments that shaped him. That guidance helps Marie focus her abilities and gives the group a clearer read on their adversaries.
Edgar’s aid comes with a familiar knot: his past is filled with deals and coverups, and trust is never guaranteed. Still, his strategic mindset and access to Vought’s archives could prove decisive as Gen V navigates a volatile era for the next generation of heroes.
Beyond this moment, the cameo hints at a larger game. Edgar suggests that whoever survives the coming clashes will reshape the world, implying a plan to regain power by checking Homelander. He remains a formidable, unpredictable factor in Gen V’s struggle against the system that powers the supes.
