Diese düstere und satirische Serie beleuchtet die dunkle Seite von Superhelden in einer modernen Welt. Wenn mächtige Individuen zu korrupten und arroganten Berühmtheiten werden, tritt eine berüchtigte Gruppe von Außenseitern auf den Plan. Ihre Mission ist es, diese übermenschlichen Wesen in Schach zu halten, auch wenn das bedeutet, brutale und unkonventionelle Methoden anzuwenden. Es ist ein zynischer Blick auf Heldentum, Macht und die Folgen ungezügelter Stärke.

The second volume of the acclaimed series The Boys is here by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson! Dark avenger Tek-Knight and his ex-partner Swingwing are in trouble. Big trouble. One has lost control of his terrifyingly overactive sex-drive, and the other might just be a murderer. It's up to Hughie and Butcher to work out which is which, in Get Some. Then, in Glorious Five Year Plan, The Boys travel to Russia - where their corporate opponents are working with the mob, in a super-conspiracy that threatens to spiral lethally out of control.

Ve světě, kde se oblohou prohánějí hrdinové v kostýmech a maskovaní mstitelé se plíží nocí, musí někdo dohlédnout na to, aby si „supráci“ moc nevyskakovali. A taky že dohlédne. Billy Řezník, Hughík, Mateřský mlíko, Francouz a Ženská jsou Banda: tým velmi nebezpečných individuí, operující pod CIA, z nichž každý je odhodlán bojovat proti nejnebezpečnější síle na Zemi – totiž supersíle. Některé superhrdiny je nutné sledovat. Některé je nutné krotit. A některé z nich – čas od času – je nutné prostě smáznout. Tehdy přichází chvíle pro Bandu. Temný mstitel Technorytíř a jeho exparťák Švihák mají problémy. Pořádné problémy. Zatímco jednomu se vymkla z rukou jeho děsivě nezkrotná nadrženost, druhý by mohl mít na krku vraždu. V příběhu s názvem Do držky je to na Hughiem a Billym Řezníkovi, aby ty problémy rozlouskli. Ve Skvostné pětiletce pak Banda putuje do Ruska, kde její korporátní protivníci spolupracují s mafií - a to na superspiknutí, které by se mohlo zvrhnout ve smrtonosnou melu. Zaplaťpánbů, že na straně našich hrdinů je hrdina zvaný Párek lásky…
The Boys (Billy Butcher, Wee Hughie, Mother's Milk, The Frenchman and The Female) are a CIA-backed team dedicated to preventing superheroes from abusing their power. In this third volume of their adventures, each has an agenda. Frenchie and the Female are mixing it up with the Mafia, Mother's Milk goes to see his mom, Annie January wants a word with God, and Butcher has yet another ghastly tryst with CIA Director Rayner. Meanwhile, the Legend offers to tell Hughie everything he wants to know about The Boys--all Hughie has to do is take a walk with the dead.
From the sick and twisted mind of Garth Ennis, co-creator of Preacher, and the vicious pencil of Darick Robertson, artist of Transmetropolitan, comes a darkly hilarious story that will change the way you look at superheroes forever! Hughie goes undercover as Scottish mutant "Bagpipe" to join the G-Men, a mysterious and huge group of `supes¿ led by the shadowy John Godolkin, with a history of internecine conflict which Butcher is all too happy to exploit. Meanwhile, Annie sees even more of the darkness in her own super-team, the Seven...
W świecie, gdzie bohaterowie w kostiumach szybują w przestworzach, a zamaskowani mściciele mkną przez noc, ktoś musi pilnować, by supki nie przekraczały pewnych granic. Kochany Hughie próbuje wkręcić się do tajemniczej supergrupy G-Ludzi jako Kobziarz. W ich siedzibie poznaje mętną postać Johna Godolkina, mentora zwichrowanej supermłodzieży. Rzeźnik nie przepuści okazji, by namieszać i odkryć kilka brudnych, supkowych sekretów. Nawet jeśli okaże się, że jest ich więcej, niż będzie w stanie przełknąć. Tymczasem Aero- American pokazuje, czym jest płomienne wypełnianie obowiązków. Czwarty tom kontrowersyjnej serii kontynuuje penetrację ciemnej strony świata superherosów!
Wenn nichts mehr hilft, wenn das Böse so böse ist, dass die ganze Welt in Gefahr ist, dann müssen sich die Helden vereinen, um es gemeinsam zu besiegen. Doch was passiert wirklich bei solchen Crossovern? Nun steht Herogasm XXIV ins Haus, das jährliche Großereignis, bei dem die Helden zusammenströmen. Doch wo so viele Supies sind, können die Boys (und ihr Hund) nicht weit sein, oder?
In a world filled with caped superheroes and masked vigilantes, the boys, a secret CIA-backed team, protect us from the super-powered "heroes."
The sixth Dynamite collection of Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson's The Boys is here, with The Boys, Vol. 6: Self-Preservation Society! You can only maim and murder so many superheroes before someone decides to do something about it, and in The Boys' case that means Payback - a superteam of unimaginable power, second only to the mighty Seven. Pulping teenage supes is one thing, but how will our heroes fare against Soldier Boy, Mind-Droid, Swatto, the Crimson Countess, and the Nazi juggernaut known as Stormfront? Blood flies and bones shatter, as Butcher and company meet fire with fire. And in the origin tales of Mother's Milk, the Frenchman and the Female, Hughie learns of the strange paths by which this disparate trio came to join The Boys. From tragedy in Harlem to the slaughter on the Brooklyn Bridge, from the festival of Les Saints De Haw-Haw to the horror lurking under Tokyo, this is a journey of discovery like no other - with only the flickering lamp of insanity to light the way. The Boys, Vol. 6: Self-Preservation Society collects issues 31-38 of the New York Times Best-Selling series by Garth Ennis, Darick Robertson and Judge Dredd co-creator, Carlos Ezquerra, and features all of the covers by Robertson!
So where are the real superheroes? The warriors for truth and justice, the defenders of the American way, the heroes who fight to make things right and ask for nothing in return? Hughie finds out when he meets the teenage adventurers known as SUPERDUPER... but unknown to the little Scotsman, Butcher has finally learned his secret. A dire scheme is set in motion, and at the vast superhero evangelist festival of BELIEVE, Hughie's relationship with Annie January - aka Starlight of the Seven - reaches its terrible conclusion. And soon The Boys themselves risk being torn asunder. The Boys, Vol. 7: The Innocents reprints issues 39-47 of the New York Times Best-Selling series by Garth Ennis, Darick Robertson, Russ Braun and John McCrea, and features all of the covers by Robertson!
Out of Dynamite Entertainment's critically acclaimed title, The Boys, comes a special story featuring everyone's favorite pint-sized Scotsman, Hughie, with The Boys: Highland Laddie, written by Garth Ennis, with covers by Darick Robertson and art by Herogasm artist John McCrea. Mind reeling from cataclysmic events in New York, Wee Hughie heads home to Auchterladle - the semi-idyllic Scottish seaside town where he grew up. All Hughie wants is some time to himself, to return to the bosom of family and friends, and get his head together after two years of unimaginable chaos. But our hero's luck has always been more cloud than silver lining, and the familiar surroundings he craves are not all they might be. Old pals are warped beyond recognition, strangers in town are up to no good, and a figure from Hughie's recent past has come back to resolve some unfinished business. You can go home again - but whether or not you should is another matter entirely. The Boys, Vol. 8: Highland Laddie collects issues 1-6 of the hit mini-series, The Boys: Highland Laddie by Garth Ennis and John McCrea, and features all of the covers by The Boys co-creator, Darick Robertson!

All the pieces are falling into place, for the Boys as well as their most mortal enemies. The long-dreaded superhuman conflict is on its way. But first there are secrets still to be uncovered: like the story of the team's first encounter with supergroup The Seven, and the shockwaves from that disastrous meeting that still reverberate today. Hughie, meanwhile, discovers his comrades' hidden history, as their original leader Colonel Greg Mallory takes him through sixty years of the filthiest black operations imaginable. And finally, with good and bad guys teetering on the brink, a shadowy force sets events in motion that will push even Butcher over the edge.

He could have been a very different man.

This is the story of Billy and Becky, told by the man himself: from the backstreets of London's East End to the carnage of the Falklands War, from the heights of love to the depths of tragedy. And when he's done, he'll be ready ... to finish things once and for all.

The Boys prepare for one last terrible battle, as the Homelander finally bites the bullet and sets an army of superheroes against the forces of the United States military.
The war is over and the world is saved. The supes have been beaten down so far they'll never get up again. So why would anyone want one hundred and eighteen metric tons of the only substance on earth that can kill them all stone dead?
