The Boys Season 3 to Feature Popular NSFW Storyline from the Comics
The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke took to Twitter to reveal the title for the sixth episode of the upcoming third season of Amazon Prime’s hit superhero series, teasing that the series will finally be adapting the fan-favorite (and NSFW!) storyline from the comics. Written by Jessica Chou, episode 3.06 titled “Herogasm,” will be based on Gareth Ennis and Darick Robertson’s six-issue The Boys spinoff comic series of the same name.

In the comics (Click here to purchase Vol. 1!), the said NSFW story arc featured the Seven including Homelander along with other Vought superheroes as they all pretend to leave Earth for a fake mission against alien threats. The supes instead go on to an island resort for a wild weekend filled with sex and drugs. Naturally, Butcher along with rest of The Boys followed them to the resort in order to discover and gain some strong evidence against the wrongdoings of Vought.

In Season 2, The Boys are on the run from the law, hunted by the Supes, and desperately trying to regroup and fight back against Vought. In hiding, Hughie (Jack Quaid), Mother’s Milk (Laz Alonso), Frenchie (Tomer Capon), and Kimiko (Karen Fukuhara) try to adjust to a new normal, with Butcher (Karl Urban) nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, Starlight (Erin Moriarty) must navigate her place in The Seven as Homelander (Antony Starr) sets his sights on taking complete control. His power is threatened with the addition of Stormfront (Aya Cash), a social-media-savvy new Supe, who has an agenda of her own. On top of that, the Supervillain threat takes center stage and makes waves as Vought seeks to capitalize on the nation’s paranoia.
The Boys is an irreverent take on what happens when superheroes, who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as gods, abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It’s the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about the supergroup known as “The Seven.” The show retains most of the comics (available for purchase here) boundary-pushing violence and sexuality while exploring the dark side of superhero celebrity and fame.

The series was created by Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen, who are responsible for another subversive comic book-inspired series, AMC’s Preacher, and Supernatural creator Eric Kripke.
Season 1 and Season 2 are available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
