So, for whatever physical violence may occur in a season 4 showdown between Butcher and the Boys, there is also a battle for his soul to consider. Also, as both Annie and Kimiko noted across the season, Compound V just makes a person more themselves, and the sadistic violence Butcher unleashed thanks to his newfound powers is very much the nature of the man: regardless of the hurt inflicted upon him as a boy, he also wants to inflict it because, deep down in his mind, it is fun. Although, the fact he can only express it to Ryan ( Cameron Crovetti) or Hughie – and never in public settings – is proof that he will always default to that more violent element of his nature. Although Butcher is a man of violence raised in a violent home, he has a more thoughtful and nurturing side. Then again, this is the dichotomy the show has been playing with the whole time. Back in the television version of events, Butcher responds to the Boys’ rebellion by identifying their next target, but we can’t help thinking some of the comic book Butcher’s more sadistic side will spill out in season 4.

But as often seems the case in the work of Boys co-creator Garth Ennis, believing in anything is the greatest folly.Īs it happens, Butcher in the comics is even more dedicated to cruelty and pain than his TV counterpart – so much so that he violently ends the Boys when they discover his true plans for the supes and the modified Compound V. Indeed, it is interesting to note the disillusionment with Butcher comes after Hughie’s notion of “the right way” is also shattered. Hughie ( Jack Quaid), Mother’s Milk ( Laz Alonso), Frenchie ( Tomer Capon), and Kimiko ( Karen Fukuhara) went through a lot this season, and it has left them all questioning Butcher’s methods. Now with Annie ( Erin Moriarty) voted in as a member – in fact, the vote itself is a first, as the others claim the team is now a democracy – it’s clear Butcher’s stated and unrevealed motivations are now in conflict with the team. Let’s start with the most direct conflict teased in the season 3 finale: Butcher turning on the Boys. Nevertheless, we are going to use some ideas from the comics, combine them with the new statuses of both the Boys and the Seven as season 3 closes, and try to discern what’s left to do and who else Butcher can kill. The season finale may have created a certain calm before the storm, but we still have to ask “where does it go from here?” Unlike many comic book adaptations, the original Boys comics are not immediately a crystal ball, as the television program remixed a lot of ideas, characters, and fates.

Indeed, for all the mayhem unleashed in the series across its third run of episodes, the devastation in Butcher’s own heart seems the most potent – and that’s considering all the casualties in the “Herogasm” episode.īut that’s just one of the things we’re left pondering as the third season of The Boys upended so much of the status quo, re-framed its satirical streak into something more real, and exposed all of the rot in its key superhero team.
