The Boys: 5 Supes From the Comics We Won’t See In the Show as Finale Nears

The Boys is going to end with just one more episode, and it looks like we won’t have time to see new supes in the endgame. With too many threads to tie, the story will focus more on Homelander and the Boys’ final battle rather than introducing new supes. Existing supes will enter the battle, picking a side, and we might get a glimpse or two of supes we haven’t seen before.

Either way, The Boys has omitted a lot of supes from Garth Ennis’ comics or reworked them into different supes in the show. A noticeable absence is the lack of G-Men in the show: the parody of X-Men characters in the comics. We’ve covered five supes from the comics that we are highly unlikely to see as the show nears its end.

1 Jack from Jupiter is a Martian Manhunter Parody

In the comics, Jack from Jupiter is The Seven’s Martian Manhunter parody. Shown as an orange-skinned hedonistic alien who is capable of flight, the supe has near-indestructible skin. Much like the other depraved supes in Vought, he’s a drug-addicted racist on par with the worst of the lot. Showrunner Eric Kripke purposely kept him out of the show as he didn’t want aliens from other planets to break the grounded myth of the show. He revealed in an AMA:

2 Blarney Cock is a Teenage Kix Member

While we did get to see Teenage Kix’s headquarters along with a few members in The Boys, the infamous Blarney Cock was absent from the show. The supe is a vile racist whose claim to fame is keeping the supe-hamster Jamie inside his body. In a grotesque moment from the comics, Hughie accidentally punches through the supe and kills him in the process while freeing Jamie. The lore deepens when you find out he’s Queen Maeve’s and The Legend’s son.

3 Mind-Droid is a Human in a Robot Suit

Mind-Droid is a fake “android” who’s actually a human with telepathic abilities. He just happens to be in a robot suit, parodying Marvel’s Vision. During the comic’s Herogasm/Payback arc, he tries to take down The Boys but is brutally decapitated by Butcher with a shovel.

4 Five-Oh is a Twisted Cyclops Analogue

Five-Oh is one of the standout members of the G-Men as a helmeted motorcycle‑gear‑wearing supe that resembles Cyclops from the X-Men. Before Vought infamously massacred the entire team, he was an active member who populated the G-Men.

5 The Divine is the X-Men Angel Parody

Continuing the lack of G-Men in the show, The Divine is a minor but memorable antagonist in the comics. The supe is a dark reflection of the classic angel archetype using flight. The Divine is a gay superhero trapped in Godolkin’s school that prioritizes marketing despite the trauma inflicted on its heroes.

Here is a summary of the characters mentioned.
