Furthermore, it became famous for deconstructing the superhero myth that has become popular since the recent flood of superhero content from DC comics and Marvel. The idea of Superman has been hit the hardest, with Homelander becoming the most irredeemable version of the character possible.
Billy Butcher teaches children about the Supes
In a tweet byThe Boys‘ Twitter handle, we see Karl Urban’s Billy Butcher sitting in a classroom with a few kids and teaching them about the dangers of superheroes. The character gets rather graphic while describing what the supes are capable of, he says:
“A supe might walk into the pub you might look at her the wrong way she might just go whoop up your bleedin face all the way to China and if you think that your parents are gonna do something about it, well, you think again… they’ll burn your entire fu**ing family”

Considering the brutality ever present in the show, this teaser might be hinting at a far more gruesome installation. Billy Butcher also referred to a superhero hitting a normal human at superspeed, probably referencing events from the pilot.
All seasons ofThe Boysare streaming on Prime Video.
