The Boys
Welcome to the savagely satirical world of The Boys, the infamous comic series by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson that pulls absolutely no punches. In a universe where superheroes are celebrities – often corrupt, reckless, and dangerously out of control – a clandestine CIA squad known only as "The Boys" is tasked with keeping them in line... or putting them down. Led by the ferociously driven Billy Butcher, this motley crew, including the newly recruited and horrified "Wee Hughie," navigates a landscape of corporate-sponsored "supes," depraved hedonism, and shocking violence.
Forget everything you know about truth, justice, and the American way. The Boys is a dark, gritty, and often hilarious deconstruction of the superhero mythos, exposing the rotten underbelly of fame and power. As Butcher and his team confront the Vought-American-backed super-team, The Seven (the most powerful and debauched heroes on the planet), expect extreme gore, biting social commentary, and characters pushed to their absolute limits. If you're looking for an adult, unflinching, and utterly unforgettable take on what happens when heroes go bad, The Boys is a must-read, laying the groundwork for the hit Amazon Prime series.
