The Boys (2007)
Comic
Published
The Boys, the full 72-issue run by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, 2006 to 2012
If the Prime Video series felt savage, the comic is meaner, filthier and more openly satirical. DC's Wildstorm imprint dropped it after six issues, and Dynamite picked it up from issue 7 with the same creative team, which tells you how far it goes. The show kept the premise but rebuilt most characters and arcs, and its ending goes its own way, so the comic reads as a genuinely different story rather than a rerun. Read it in the omnibus volumes, and be ready for content the show never attempted.
