Synopsis
Nella serie sono narrate le avventure di un quintetto di agenti della CIA denominati "The Boys". I loro compiti sono essenzialmente quelli di sorvegliare, tenere sotto controllo e, quale extrema ratio, eliminare i supereroi quando le loro azioni superano il limite. La squadra è composta dall'inglese Billy Butcher, che ne è anche una sorta di capo; Latte Materno, un gigantesco afroamericano che si occupa dell'intelligence del gruppo; il Francese, un pazzoide dalle maniere gentili e dal carattere imprevedibile; La Femmina della Specie, una taciturna e letale agente che in passato ha lavorato come sicario per la mafia; e dall'ultimo arrivato, lo scozzese Piccolo Hughie, aggiunto alla squadra dopo la misteriosa defezione di uno dei membri fondatori, Mallory. A completare la squadra c'è Terrore, il bulldog terrier di Butcher, vero e proprio alter ego canino dell'agente britannico. I Boys sono spesso aiutati da La Leggenda, ex editor di una casa editrice di fumetti apologetici dei supereroi dai modi bruschi e dagli atteggiamenti scorretti. Nel corso della serie altri personaggi hanno aiutato i cinque, come ad esempio La Salsiccia dell'Amore, un ex supereroe sovietico che li aiuterà a risolvere un intricato caso ambientato in Russia. Il gruppo prende ordini direttamente dal direttore della CIA Susan L. Reyner, una donna sulla quarantina che ha anche una bizzarra e movimentata relazione con Butcher. L'interfaccia della CIA con i Boys è l'agente Kessler (detto "La scimmia") che spesso viene brutalizzato e motteggiato da Butcher, specialmente per via della sua perversione, ovvero il masturbarsi guardando atlete mutilate impegnate in attività sportive quali le Paraolimpiadi.

The Boys #72
This review contains spoilers for the final issue of “The Boys.” “The Boys” #72 caps the end on this titanic run of superheroic commentary from Garth Ennis, Darick Robertson and the other admirable artists who stepped up to the plate. When this book started, it was a revolution. With noses out of joint and publishers changed, “The Boys” was a force of nature sweeping through the superhero comic landscape. The subversive commentary and disdain for superheroes kept this pseudo-satire of violent proportions at the pinnacle of comics over the years. This final epilogue issue makes readers think, but only after the soft nature of the ending finally washes away. Garth Ennis used this book to give his personal thesis on superheroes. This issue seems to ram home two points: in the words of one character, superheroes are “bad product.” You can change superheroes, reboot them, give them wardrobe malfunctions but in the end they’re always broken icons unable to be fixed. “The Boys” doesn’t exis

The Boys #71
All but four pages of “The Boys” #71 occurs within the same few feet of Empire State Building rooftop between two badly-injured, barely moving characters. There’s a lot of talk, but every sentence in this penultimate issue by Garth Ennis and Russ Braun draws on a seventy-issue-rich history, and every scene has the resonance and momentum of a confession. It’s always a pleasure when creators can wrap up projects in a way and time of their own choosing, and “The Boys” #71 builds inexorably towards its cliffhanger ending with a controlled cascade of emotional force. “The Boys” #71 is one last aria before the curtain with its outsize pathos, dramatic crescendo and its familiar (yet still shocking) plot twists. Russ Braun does a masterful job with the facial expressions and body language in this issue, and since “The Boys” is all emotional fallout, Braun’s share of the storytelling is enormous. Ennis may write the score, but Braun’s drawing sings the notes. If Ennis is a musician, he is

The Boys #65
“The Boys” #65 gets us straight into the action after Butcher stormed off to face the Homelander in last month’s cliffhanger. This storm has built over 64 issues and the wait was worth it. Garth Ennis decides to throw a curve ball into the monumental moment that is either genius or completely ridiculous depending on whether you wanted this book to live up to its farce foundation or were hoping for something more serious. When you take into account all the things that have come before, this bloody denouement is the climax the central animosity deserves. While the concept of the introduction of a third party in this issue makes for interesting retroactive knowledge, the characterization is mostly distracting and downright silly. It’s a great idea that reads well on the first pass but loses fidelity with inspection and any desire to find deep understanding. From here, the madness descends and readers will be given the violence and grand ideas they crave from this title. It’s a shame it

The Boys #64
My first review for CBR was of “The Boys” #24 back when the book was mostly concerned with making fun of superheroes. It spent so much time running the theme into the ground that most people wrote the series off as nothing more than juvenile mockery of superheroes. Three years and four months later, “The Boys” is a very different book, one with origins in earlier mockery and has grown into a disturbing meditation on power and corruption. Superheroes in “The Boys” aren’t a joke anymore; they’re deadly serious. The Homelander has finally put his plan into play for superheroes to run amok and possibly take over the United States government. In response, Butcher has released all of the dirt he and the Boys have collected on the supes over the years. Some of that material is of the Homelander slaughtering people, exposing him and creating a situation where there’s no turning back. Yet, despite these obvious conditions for extreme violence, “The Boys” #64 is a quiet issue of building tensi

The Boys #63
This is the beginning of the end game and it’s exactly what any fan of “The Boys” could hope for. For all the ups and down this series has experienced, when it is good it has been great. This issue shows Garth Ennis is going to bring this saga down with as much force and impact as he can muster. Hughie is a character who’s been bottling up a lot of emotion and confused feelings for a long while. It’s about time for the top to blow and Butcher sets up the perfect situation for it. This is a full circle for Hughie, and while the ultimate moment might actually lack as much heart as it deserves — it’s over too quickly and feels throwaway in a schlock gimmick sense — the exciting aspect is that Hughie now has a clear future ahead of him. With so much baggage stored away, Hughie is open to go in any direction and that adds a possibly dangerous variable to this climactic time. The central action sequence featuring Frenchie and the Female is quintessential “The Boys.” The action borders on
