I don't know exactly what episode, but a character does leave his team for a period of time, without saying anything to a few of their teammates, and one of them calls this character and somewhat confronts him for leaving without a goodbye.

As season 3 progresses, there is increased focus on how a main character has become verbally and physically violent like his abusive father, to the point of saying and doing things exactly the same way his father did them. Another character who speaks about how his father thought he was a disappointment goes on to call his son the same thing as they fight.

SEASON 2 SPOILERS
sexual violence is a main theme of the show. several main characters are sexual abusers and multiple characters who are victims are intimidated or stalked. the worst of the stalking happens in season 2
season 2 is really distressing because homelander spends it stalking rebecca butcher, living in her house, intimidating her, and lording it over her that she's powerless to stop him
S2E2 (28:30 - 30:20) rebecca begs for Vought to help her get away and is refused (very distressing)
(35:00) homelander intimidates rebecca
S2E3 (7:15) homelander intimidates rebecca

yes it's a MAIN theme of the show and people use hard drugs on-screen all the time
E1 hughie's dad watches a TV show about drugs
in the first scene of E4 a few minutes in a character kills someone by making them overdose. it's very sudden and unexpected
at the end of E8, a-train has a heart attack from overdose in the middle of a fight scene (we see it again in the recap at the beginning of season 2)
S2E2 (50:30) starlight talks about the overdose from E4 in detail

EP4: Butcher cleans up his v* from the last episode.
EP5: 3:04 - after Butcher says "I happen to live right down here, mate, on planet Earth." Lasts about 5 seconds, graphic visual and sound. 3:15 - after Hughie says, "No, I'm good, okay?" Very quick, mild visual, but graphic sound. 3:30 - lasts about 6 seconds during the title card, no visual, intense sound after Butcher says "Nothing."

At the end of the episode, Popclaw seduces her landlord just after injecting herself with Compound V. Somehow this causes her to have more strength, which affects her sex with the landlord. She begins sitting on his face, but she gets too into it and accidentally crushes his head without really noticing. It’s shown from the side view, and then again when Popclaw discovers she squashed his head. I have to say it looked exactly just like a squashed skittle, it was a little gory but not too bad considering it’s The Boys.

no autistic character are abused however a variation of the r slur is used at the end of the last episode of season 3. there's nothing visible on screen so if you turn off captions and mute it from 57:22-57:24 you'll be safe and still know what happens. (SPOILERS)
if you wanna be extra safe and skip it, a protestor calls homelander a fascist and throws a can at his kid, so homelander lasers the guy's head off and everyone cheers.

Body Dysmorphia Disorder is a body-image disorder characterized by persistant and intrusive preoccupations with an imagined or slight defect in one's appearance. This means that the afflicted person cannot stop thinking negatively about their appearance, or aspects of it. It has nothing to do with shapeshifting.
The Deep has serious body dysmorphia and depression because of his gills, and being assaulted in season 1 episode 7 makes it worse. In season 2 episode 2 he's given a drug that makes him hallucinate that his gills are talking to him, and they give him a long talk about how he has to learn to accept his body the way it is. His distress is very intense.
In S2E3 (44:00) Homelander calls him disgusting and tells him to cover up

There is no epilepsy warning before the show or any ease-in before scene, if not for a friend who saw it earlier and warned me it would give me seizure as there is no time for reaction and closing one/both eyes is not enough to block it - it is INTENSE.

This is kind of hard to answer. The showrunners make use of lots of real life social media to help sell the message of the show, for example much of the in-universe entertainment produced by Vought can be seen in real life on their Youtube channel.

To clarify, the death mentioned in the previous comment is a lie told by a character and the woman didn’t die, however you are still visually shown this death in a fake flashback as if it’s real and it’s not confirmed to be a lie until several episodes later.

Some of the characters have had their races swapped from the source material (Deep is now white instead of black like in the comics, A-Train is now black instead of white like in the comics), but aside from that I can’t really think of an example of minority misrepresentation that wasn’t an intentional plot point regarding racism, bigotry etc.

Gonna say no but Homelander seems to have an Oedipus complex thing happening with Stillwell in season one where he sees her as a mother figure and a romantic/sexual partner. In season 2 he finds a bottle of her breast milk and drinks it which is continuing to be a weird obsession with milk throughout the show. He is also jealous of her baby for a time, like an older sibling would be.
(SPOILERS)
He had Doppelganger morph into her after her death to enact fantasies with. Just definitely some weird pseudo-incest stuff happening that is worth a warning.

The series isn’t over yet but most of the seasons end off on a sad note and with the direction the series is going, it’s hard to see it having a happy ending. (The comic didn’t have a happy ending for the record although the show has gone in a pretty different direction from it so it’s possible it won’t be the same ending).

In season 3 a character is stripped naked, humiliated and bike locked to a pillar, then forced to choose who to kill between 2 people he cares about. Arguably psychological torture. A supe introduced in season 3 is also tested on by scientists to test his limits including being shot down the throat, burned and gassed.
