Never meet your heroes

***The Boys*** is an irreverent take on the superhero genre. It explores what happens when superheroes abuse their powers instead of using them for good. These mighty beings — who are popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians, and as revered as gods — find themselves hunted by a non-powered group of vigilantes.

A CIA black-ops team, their job is to police, monitor and potentially stop the Seven, a group of vainglorious superheroes. They were founded by Billy Butcher, their current leader.

This band of brothers is out to expose the corruption they believe the Seven represent. Although they may not have superpowers, they do have a lot of "blue-collar grit and [a] willingness to fight dirty."

Starring Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Dominique McElligott, Jessie T. Usher, Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford, Tomer Capon, Karen Fukuhara, Nathan Mitchell, and Elisabeth Shue, the series was created by Garth Ennis, author of the original comic, and was adapted by Evan Goldberg, Eric Kripke and Seth Rogen.

**Season 3 starts on June 3, 2022!**

The Talon

**The Talon** was a member of Tek Knight's rogues gallery, who occasionally switched between hero and villain.

## Biography

The Talon only briefly appears in a single flashback during the entire comic. According to Tek Knight, the Talon was styled as an anti-hero, and that he and Laddio were always chasing her across rooftops. However, Tek Knight reveals that in actuality, the three of them became genuine friends and the chasing was just a fun game for them. Their friendship grew to the point that he and Laddio didn't mind that she had known from the beginning where the Tek-Cave was.

At some point, the Talon disappeared for a few years before returning to the US and showing up at the Tek-Cave. After inviting Laddio, now SwingWing, the three of them spend the evening reminiscing when the Talon instigates a threesome with Tek Knight and SwingWing. The threesome was the beginning of the hatred between Tek Knight and SwingWing, as both had developed feelings for her, setting in motion the events that would cause both their deaths a few years later.

It is unknown what became of the Talon after Tek Knight and Swingwing's deaths.

## Powers

* **Superhuman Speed**: The Talon could easily run away from Tek Knight and Laddio, despite both of them having access to superhuman abilities through the use of technology.

You Got Your License To Drive (Me Crazy)

"**You Got Your License To Drive (Me Crazy)**" is a song recorded by Miles Gaston Villanueva for *The Boys* episodes "The Only Man in the Sky" and "Glorious Five Year Plan". It was released by June 3, 2022.

## In-Universe History

In 2013, Super-Sweet released "You Got Your License To Drive (Me Crazy)", which became a hit.

Despite its popularity, Supersonic considers it an old shame. When he has to perform it again for the first time in years, it becomes clear why, since it's explicitly about a sixteen-year-old girl who has just passed her driving test.

## Lyrics

Baby, baby, baby got your license to drive (*You got your license*)
Got your license to drive me (*Ohh, yeahh, crazayyy*)
Yeah, yeah
Come over here baby
Got your hands spread wide, at 10 and 2
I'm gonna take you to driving school
I'm hugging those curves, got your hands on my wheel
When you grab that stick (*Grab that stick*)
Gonna make your tires squeal
Dangerous curves, she's my sweet sixteen
Make my engine purr, you're my teenage queen, oh!
Baby, baby, baby got your license to drive
Got your license to drive me crazy
Come on pretty baby, make me feel so alive (Feel so alive)
Got your license to drive (Got your license to drive)
Now that you're sixteen... Me Crazy!
Yeah baby
Yeahhhhhhhh
Got those tight jeans on, you're on a mission
The seat goes back, put my key in your ignition
Slip on over to the passenger side
Now baby baby gotta show me your ride
Dangerous curves, she's my sweet sixteen
Make my engine purr, you're my teenage queen, oh!
Baby, baby, baby got your license to drive (You got your license)
Got your license to drive me crazy
Come on pretty baby, make me feel so alive
Got your license to drive (Got your license to drive)
Show me your license to drive... Me Crazy!
The night's so hot
Your road's getting wetter
You're so fine
When you're cruisin' in your Jetta (Cruisin' in your Jetta for me)
Cruisin' your Jetta for me
Baby, baby, baby got your license to drive (*Finally*)
Got your license to drive me crazy
Come on pretty baby, make me feel so alive
Got your license to drive (*Got your license to drive*)
Now that you're sixteen... Me Crazy!
## Video

Supersonic - Super-Sweet - You Got Your License To Drive (Me Crazy) - Visualizer
## Trivia

* In-universe, Super-Sweet's hit song is riffed with references to celebrity couples of the time that have broken up since. To make it worse, the lyrics reference Drummer Boy's crush at the time being 16, so he cannot sing it in the modern day without sounding creepy.
Thomas Godolkin

―Cate pushes Indira Shetty into revealing the truth behind Godolkin University.[src]

**Thomas Godolkin** is a mentioned character of the Amazon series *Gen V*, a spin-off series of *The Boys*. He is a behavioral psychologist and the founder of Godolkin University, alongside Frederick Vought.

## Trivia

* While the Gen V press release arranged with Entertainment Weekly stated that Godolkin University had been co-founded by Patrick Godolkin, the show instead referred to him as Thomas Godolkin.
* Thomas Godolkin is the overarching antagonist of the Amazon series *Gen V*.

The Seven Satellite

**The Seven Satellite** is a medium-orbit satellite base that serves as the headquarters for The Seven. The satellite is an advanced flying command center that doubles as an aircraft carrier for Vought-American.

## Trivia

* Seven Satellite is based on the Helicarrier from Marvel Comics and the Justice League Watchtower from DC Comics.
* In the Amazon series, The Seven's headquarters is a skyscraper called Vought Tower, which also serves as the headquarters for Vought International.
	+ Andrea Chiampo, a visual artist for the television series' first episode, revealed early concept designs of The Seven Satellite on his ArtStation profile and stated that he was asked to create the satellite station based on the original design from the comics, but the designs went unused, and the show's creators opted to use a skyscraper instead.

Tommy Peterson

**Tommy Peterson** is a minor character in season 2 of *The Boys*, played by Charley Koontz. He appears in the episode "Butcher, Baker, Candlestick Maker".

## *The Boys* Series

### Season Two

Tommy Peterson is an ordinary citizen with a fairly routine life. He listens daily to Stormfront and the news, caring for his mom, pass by one of his neighbors every morning, and goes to the local grocery store where one of the employees is of foreign origin. As Stormfront's speeches become more militaristic and nationalist, Tommy becomes increasingly more radicalized and suspicious of others, particularly the employee. One day he sees a glint in the eyes of the employee, Kuldeep Singh, and convinces himself that he is one of the notorious undercover supe-terrorists that Stormfront warns about in her speeches.

Later he returns to the grocery store, this time armed. In his headphones plays one of the speeches of Stormfront which gives him the courage to take action. He threatens the employee with his weapon accusing him of being a supe-terrorist. Believing him to be bulletproof, Tommy shoots Kuldeep dead. After shooting him in the head he realizes how he has been misled.

It can be assumed that Tommy is arrested for murder after the incident.

## Trivia

* The opening montage is a horrific demonstration of an isolated young man being radicalized by far-right stochastic terrorism - that is, dehumanizing rhetoric designed to provoke violence without openly calling for it.
* The glint that Tommy saw in Kuldeep's eyes seems to have come from a car headlight.
Timothy Foundation

―Timothy Foundation motto

The **Timothy Foundation** is a philanthropic environmental program by the Deep dedicated to making the oceans cleaner for cephalopods. The foundation was named by the Deep after his friend Timothy, an octopus that he killed after Homelander forced him to eat the cephalopod alive to rejoin the Seven.

## History

―Announcement on Vought International's social media accounts

On World Octopus Day 2022, the Deep hosted an announcement video inside Vought Tower. “Today is a deeply personal one for me,” The Deep says in the video. “Oct. 8 is when we take the time out to celebrate a majestic eight-legged mollusk. This World Octopus Day, I’m launching an initiative to help keep these beautiful creatures safe.” The Deep announced the establishment of the Timothy Foundation, an initiative sponsored by Vought International dedicated to cleaning the world's oceans and making them safer for its undersea mollusks. According to the Deep, the foundation was named after his pet octopus and friend of the same name who was recently eaten by a "predator". The "predator" in question was in fact the Deep himself who was forced to eat Timothy alive at the insistence of Homelander and his ex-wife Cassandra to rejoin the Seven. For every donation made in Timothy's honor, Vought will match 7 cents to dollar, and asked his followers to post with #JusticeForTimothy when they make their donations.

## Trivia

* The Deep promoting a foundation that protects mollusks such as Timothy is not only ironic but also a blatant display of hypocrisy. Given that he was the "predator" who brutally killed Timothy in the first place, following Homelander's orders to eat him alive to rejoin The Seven, the situation seems downright cruel. Despite this, the Deep's spineless nature and incessant sycophantic behavior make it difficult to sympathize with him."
Teddy Stillwell

**Theodore "Teddy" Stillwell** is the son of Madelyn Stillwell, the Senior Vice President of Vought International. He made his debut in *The Boys*' episode Get Some.

## *The Boys* Series

### Season One

Teddy is Madelyn Stillwell's infant son, and throughout the course of the series, she breastfeeds her child in her private time. At one point, Homelander sees this, which brings him great jealousy, indicating he wants to be nurtured by a mother figure instead of sexual desire.

In the penultimate finale You Found Me, Madelyn's relationship with Homelander has reached breaking point due to being manipulated and lied to regarding the whereabouts of his son and Becca Butcher, which Billy Butcher uses it to his advantage and kidnaps Madelyn at her house, wiring her up with C4 thinking it will control Homelander. Homelander instead kills Madelyn by burning her eyes using his heat vision because she lied to him about the existence of his son. Billy sets off the C4 in an attempt to kill Homelander, but Teddy is revealed to be safe and 17 miles away from his mother's home in a later episode.

### Season Three

Without his mother and his superpowers activating, Teddy was sent to Red River Institute, an adoption center for superpowered children. Years passed until at some point, Hughie Campbell visited Red River to find information about Victoria Neuman's past, while there Teddy noticed Hughie. Teddy repeatedly teleported by Hughie and identified Hughie by pointing to a tv broadcast with Hughie and Starlight. Before Teddy was pulled away, this drew attention to Hughie and one of the teachers grew suspicious of why Hughie, a member of The Bureau was visiting the institute.

## Powers

* **Teleportation**: Due to Compound V, Teddy is able to teleport from one location to another in the blink of an eye. Unlike Hughie, Teddy can teleport his clothes with him.
Vik

Our Sheet

**Our Sheet, Inc.** (stylized as **OurSheet**) is an American bed sheet-manufacturing company founded by Mickey Londale.

## History

Our Sheet is a manufacturing company founded by Mickey Londale. The company states that they're dedicated to making a variety of affordable and made in America only products.

Their line of products include bed sheets, 94% cotton triple ply toilet paper and dark roast southern harvest coffee; all of which are part of Our Sheet's "4Freedom" brand. Blue Hawk was a spokesman for this brand of products.

On August 26, 2022, Our Sheet promoted their next line of products, "Mickey's Kicks", shoes made by kids for kids for the back-to-school season. They're available in four shades of white, and marked down from $79.99 to $77.77, with an available promo code, "WHITE-ON", for additional savings.

## Trivia

* Our Sheet is a spoof on the real-life My Pillow, a company known for it sponsorship of conservative political activities, multiple lawsuits, and unsupported scientific claims.
* The faux infomercial slips in a few Trumpisms, including a promise to "make sleep great again", a parody of Donald Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan. Londale also urges viewers to not be a "dreamer", a reference to Trump's stance on immigration policies and "DREAMers", those who came to the United States as undocumented youth.
	+ There are plenty of jokes surrounding typical right-wing Republican rhetoric sprinkled into the commercial as well. On top of an emphasis on being made in the USA, there are multiple references to the color white, including "white cotton dreams" and white sheets. These jokes are in reference to the racist beliefs and white supremacist dogwhistling that have been associated with the Republican Party. On top of having only Caucasian spokespeople throughout the commercial, a quip at the end of the commercial boasts about their "newest shade of white: milk!", though this could also likely be a reference to Homelander’s favorite drink.
	+ Londale also urges viewers to "stop letting our country get invaded by rough and uncomfortable, foreign-made bedsheets," parroting Republican rhetoric and fear tactics surrounding foreign countries.
Voughtify

―Slogan

**Voughtify** is a music streaming service owned by Vought International. Music artists affiliated with Vought Records can be found on this service.

## History

Music videos such as "Never Truly Vanish" and "Faster" can be accessed within the service.

Following the death of Supersonic in 2022, all of Super-Sweet’s catalogue became available exclusively on Voughtify.

Near the end of the year, A-Train announced the 2022 Voughtify Recapped, celebrating the top five songs of the year, with the top three all being A-Train originals.

## Music

* "Never Truly Vanish" and "Virtually Perfect (Online Love)" by Starlight
* "Faster", "Run Through Your Heart", "Hide Your Girlfriend", and "Valley of Your Love" by A-Train
* "Ven a mi" by Supersonic
* "Chimps Don't Cry" and "Vacant Heart" by Crimson Countess
* "Bow and Quiver" and "V.I.B.E.Z." by Eagle the Archer from his debut album *Bullseye Beats*
* All of Super-Sweet's catalogue including "You Got Your License To Drive (Me Crazy)" and "Rock My Kiss"
* All of Soldier Boy's catalogue including his covers of "Rapture" and "From a Logical Point of View"
* "Vanity to Insanity"
* "Maniac" by Michael Sembello from the *Flashdance* film soundtrack.

## Trivia

* Voughtify is a parody of Spotify.
* Voughtify Recapped's top five songs for 2022 (in the following ranking order) include:
	1. "Faster" by A-Train
	2. "Run Through Your Heart" by A-Train
	3. "Hide Your Girlfriend" by A-Train
	4. "Rapture" by Soldier Boy
	5. "Rock My Kiss" by Super-Sweet
* The top three songs, “Hide Your Girlfriend,” “Run Through Your Heart,” and “Faster”, are all A-Train originals. Whether or not he achieved this without Vought tampering with its own algorithms is unknown. Regardless, there is a sinister double meaning behind both "Run Through Your Heart" and "Hide Your Girlfriend" as the former is a reference to A-Train suffering heart failure after killing Blue Hawk and the latter is a reference to him killing Hughie Campbell's girlfriend Robin Ward.
* "Rock My Kiss" by Super-Sweet is number 5 on the list. Supersonic, Super-Sweet's frontman, was murdered by Homelander in season 3 for conspiring with Starlight. Since A-Train is the one who basically got him killed by telling the Seven’s leader about their collusion, it’s very jarring to watch him eulogize Supersonic in the video.
* Despite being labeled a traitor, Soldier Boy made it in the top five with his cover of "Rapture".
Sky

**Sky** is a character in the animated anthology series *The Boys Presents: Diabolical*.

## *The Boys Presents: Diabolical*

Vought Rifle Association

The **Vought Rifle Association** (**VRA**) is a gun rights advocacy group founded by Vought International.

## History

Founded by Vought International, the Vought Rifle Association seeks to safeguard the constitutional rights of citizens to bear arms. The organization believes that every lawful individual has the right to own and operate firearms, but also understands the importance of promoting responsible gun ownership and safety measures. The VRA is dedicated to upholding the spirit of the Second Amendment and ensuring that responsible gun owners are not penalized for the actions of criminals.

Gunpowder, the VRA's most prominent member, served as the organization's public face, serving as a firearms instructor and staunch supporter of its mission. Through his outspoken advocacy for the Second Amendment, he became a prominent voice in the gun rights movement. He was also an expert on firearms safety, regularly giving lectures and conducting training sessions for new gun owners.

## Members

* Gunpowder † - Spokesperson, Firearms Instructor, and Supporter

## Trivia

* The Vought Rifle Association is a parody of the National Rifle Association. Like the NRA, The Vought Rifle Association is portrayed as a powerful lobby group, using its wealth and influence to push a pro-gun rhetoric and other right wing talking points while simultaneously deflecting criticism and maintaining its image as a supporter of American freedoms. The Vought Rifle Association also reflects the controversial nature of the NRA in the modern day, with some critics accusing the organization of perpetuating mass shootings and gun violence through its advocacy for permissive gun laws. In *The Boys*, the Vought Rifle Association serves to comment on the complex and sometimes contradictory nature of gun rights advocacy in contemporary America.

#### Sexual Encounter

Timothy was an octopus that lived at an aquarium inside The Deep's room. One day, he witness The Deep and his wife have sex, an act that made him sexually aroused. Instead of getting mad at him, The Deep encouraged the creature and even started to perform an act of foreplay with Timothy.

#### Fate

Later, The Deep was forced by Homelander to eat Timothy, while he was still alive, during a meal. As The Deep starts to put Timothy inside his mouth, Timothy starts to pray until he is eventually crushed to death by The Deep's teeth. While Timothy is being eaten alive, Ashley and Cassandra watch the scene unfold, with the former being horrified and disgusted while the latter fells a sadist joy.

#### Legacy

After his death, The Deep would go on to create the Timothy Foundation as a way to honor his friend's memory and presumably also clear some of the guilt that he fells from killing his octopus friend.

He appeared in the Eddie Murphy comedy Daddy Day Care, and the critically acclaimed Little Miss Sunshine and The Social Network.

After being send to red river, Tony would experience something that would traumatize him. He would later manage to get out of the institute and would swear that he would expose Vought for what they did.

### Season Three

Tony tries to approach Victoria Neuman several times at public events and at her office. He calls her "Nadia" but she doesn't respond to that name.

Eventually, he tracks Victoria down outside the FBSA. He finally gets her attention and Victoria turns to him and says that she’s not Nadia anymore. Tony tells Nadia that they used to be best friends and that now that she has a platform she should tell everyone about the Red River Institute and what happened to them. Victoria tells him she can’t, and then feigns compliance as he pleaded further, pulling him into a hug.

However, Tony's nose then starts to bleed, and he immediately realizes that Victoria trying to use her powers to kill him. Tony then attacks her, wrestling to keep her eyes covered or averted from him. However, Victoria overpowers him, destroying his hand and then the lower half of his head during their scuffle.

## Powers

* **Superhuman Strength**: Tony possessed superhuman strength, the extent of which is not known. With a single punch, he was able to send Victoria Neuman flying a distance of approximately twelve feet, causing her to collide violently with a dumpster.
* **Superhuman Durability**: Since Victoria Neuman usually is able to cause entire heads to explode, it may be that Tony possessed greater durability as she only partially caused his head to explode. However, once Tony was helpless and Victoria was better able to focus, she caused his entire body to explode.

## Trivia

* Tony had a very close relationship with Victoria, considering they grew up together as best friends. He is one of the few, possibly the only other than Stan Edgar and Hughie Campbell, who knows her real name is Nadia.

The Skorchers

**The Skorchers** were a group of sex-themed heroes.

## History

The Skorchers embodied a more provocative and publicity-driven approach, featuring heroes with a focus on themes of sexuality. Unlike previous superteams funded by Vought-American's superhuman development division, the Skorchers marked a significant shift as the first group backed by Vought's media arm. The group started as an experimental concept, purportedly a team of edgy, ambiguous antiheroes who were expected to eventually recognize their mistakes and return with subtle changes in codenames, costumes, and perspectives. It becomes evident that their public image did not accurately reflect the true nature of this unconventional squad.

In the depicted comic events, The Boys mark The Skorchers as a team of interest, primarily due to their unconventional public image. Notably, the team's individual members are not particularly strong, as only Teen Temptress and Black Thugg possess noteworthy powers. Although it is revealed that two members of The Skorchers can fly, the specific individuals with this ability are not explicitly identified.

Billy Butcher eventually drugs and eliminates all members of the Skorchers by decapitation, securing their headless forms to chairs arranged around a Thanksgiving dinner filled with blood. After this act, Butcher locks eyes with the sole survivor – the individual from the Vought media division responsible for assembling this Supe team.

Valerie Hunter

―Valerie Hunter[src]

**Valerie Hunter** is a character in Season Two of the Amazon series *The Boys*.

## *The Boys* Series

### Background

#### Losing Her Brother

In 1972, Valerie Hunter was sleeping in the backseat of the car while her older brother, Myron was driving home in the rain when their car was stopped by Liberty. Liberty forced Myron out of the car and began accusing his car of being involved in a robbery. Myron denied the claims, so Liberty beat him in an attempt to get him to "confess". Valerie awoke from the backseat and saw Myron beg Liberty to stop, to which Liberty proceeded to break his jaw and leave him dead on the hood of the car. When Liberty was gone, Valerie stepped out of the car and saw her brother's mangled face. Valerie wanted to get justice for her brother by going to the police, but her parents thought it was pointless and discouraged her. Furthermore, Vought-American sent a lawyer who offered to pay $2,000 in restitution for their loss. Her family took the money and agreed to keep quiet about the incident.

### Season Two

#### Questioned About Liberty

After Mallory tips the the Boys off about investigating a former Supe named Liberty, Hughie, Mother's Milk, and Annie take a road trip and visit Valerie. Valerie denies any claims they make until they reveal they're not with Vought and M.M reveals his story about his father, who also wanted to get justice against Vought but worked himself to death trying. Valerie hesitantly let's them in and allows them to ask their questions. She reveals that her brother, Myron, was killed by Liberty, but no one would support her claims due to the situation of "A little black girl accusing a white superhero of murder in these parts." Valerie wanted to get justice for her brother but she was silenced by her parents and Vought. After she finished telling them the story, Valerie then pleaded with the three not to tell anyone else that she told them, out of fear Liberty will track her down and kill her. Hughie tried to reassure Valerie that Liberty has to be dead because no one has seen the superhero since 1979. Valerie denied the statement and dropped a news paper in front of them with Stormfront on the main headline, claiming that Stormfront and Liberty are one and the same.

#### Connecting the Dots

Hughie, Mother's Milk, and Annie then debate over what Valerie told them. Hughie is doubtful that Stormfront is Liberty due to her suspected age (70+) not matching Stormfront's physical appearance, and that Valerie could've been wrong due it raining that night and that Valerie was only a little girl at the time of the story. While Annie is persistent due to how certain Valerie seemed and that no one knows the full effects of Compound V, hinting that it could slow aging. Despite the three's search for answers, it only ends with them asking more questions.
