12 Disturbing The Boys Anti-heroes Who Have Done Unspeakable Deeds - Explored
They tell you to never meet your heroes, but no one takes the saying seriously until they kill your girlfriend by running literally through her. In 2019, Amazon Prime Videos released The Boys, a show adapted from the comic of the same name published by Dynamite Entertainment. The show has received massive adulation from the audience for its dark take on superhero culture. Imagine a world where superheroes are real and represented by evil corporations. It’s the corporation that creates and stages crimes for the heroes to solve and capitalizes on their image to profit from. The superheroes in The Boys not only fight the bad guys, but they also star in the movies about them. The show vastly differs from the comics but it does take a lot of inspiration from the source. Some of the characters have been given redemption arcs on the show while their comic counterparts continue to remain evil. What remains common in both of them is a rich variety of characters who have complexity, depth, and real-ness. Most of the characters are satirical versions of popular heroes from the DC and Marvel Universe. In this world, the villains hide behind their superhero costumes and good guys end up being tagged as criminals. The Boys explores dark humor like it has never been done before. Speaking of the characters, today we are going to explore 12 Anti-Heroes from the show and the comics who have surpassed villains in doing unspeakable things. This video contains a lot of spoilers from seasons one and two.
