Ezekiel

* Organizer of Capes for Christ
* Spokesman of Samaritan's Embrace

**Ezekiel** is a supporting antagonist in Season 1 of *The Boys*. He is a Christian supe and one of the main organizers of Capes for Christ. While he publicly promotes traditionalist values and denounces homosexuality, he is secretly attracted to men.

## *The Boys* Series

### Season One

Ezekiel is first seen engaging in a foursome with several male partners in a Supe nightclub. He later headlines a Capes for Christ convention as the guest speaker, where he charges attendees thousands of dollars for a meet-and-greet. After a group baptism, Hughie attempts to blackmail him with compromising pictures, but his plans are foiled after his phone was short circuited by the baptism. Forced to improvise, Hughie bluffs, claiming to have a video of him and Ezekiel having sex, and demands information on Samaritan's Embrace' Compound V shipments. Ezekiel relents and gives up the information, allowing Butcher to track the latest Compound V shipment to a hospital.

### *Seven on 7 with Cameron Coleman*

During the October 2021 segment, Cameron Coleman says Ezekiel was reported and that the FBSA had begun to charge him with multiple accounts of abuse and misconduct from anonymous sources.

### Ezekiel's Prayer's & Thoughts

On September 1, 2022, Vought International announced that it was partnering up with Ezekiel for a new app called Ezekiel's Prayers & Thoughts.

## Personality

Ezekiel's public image is that of a preacher of fundamentalist Christianity, who promotes traditionalist values and condemns homosexuality. In reality, Ezekiel is a hypocrite and enjoys threesomes with men.

## Powers

* **Elasticity**: Ezekiel is capable of stretching, twisting, and contorting his limbs and body to extraordinary lengths and proportions.
* **Density Changing**: Ezekiel can augment his body's shape including compressing it down into a compact form, with his mass remaining the same, and can increase or decrease accordingly.
* **Superhuman Hearing**: Ezekiel, being a supe, has better hearing beyond that of ordinary humans, capable of hearing certain frequencies.

## Weakness

* **Freezing Temperatures**: If Ezekiel is exposed to extreme cold, he will be unable to use his powers. Much like how rubber breaks when it's frozen, the same principle will happen to him if he tries to stretch in freezing temperatures.

## Trivia

* Ezekiel is a composite parody of plasticity superheroes like DC's' Plastic Man and Elongated Man and Marvel Comics' Mr. Fantastic and Ms. Marvel who have the power to stretch themselves.
* The Boys blackmailing him with a clip of him being homosexual is a reference to when they blackmailed Jack from Jupiter with a clip of him having sex with a couple of transvestites. He is homosexual but his public image is "*pray the gay away*", but in reality, he is attracted to men and engaged in threesomes*.*
* Strangely enough, when Homelander exposes Hughie as being one of the people who killed Translucent, he lists Ezekiel as another example. Ezekiel was never shown dying and was later confirmed to be alive in 2021. It is possible Homelander was lying about his death to further criminalize Starlight or was simply listing Ezekiel as another victim of the Boys, albeit one of blackmail rather than murder.
