The second season of The Boys was recently released for fans to indulge in once more. And they’re already excited to see what will happen to Homelander and his team next. One thing fans are sure of is that another Supe, Soldier Boy, will be coming on board in season three. And that role will be played by Jensen Ackles of Supernatural fame. If the show follows the storyline of the comics, he’ll also get beaten up quite a bit by Billy Butcher.
But Soldier Boy is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the number of superheroes in the comics. The Seven is also not the only team—there are many groups, like G-Men or Payback, in existence. Hopefully, fans will get to see them all in the Amazon Prime adaptation.
10 Jack From Jupiter
A being from outer space, Jack from Jupiter is an original member of The Seven who hasn’t been shown on screen yet. He is a heavy drug user, often the logical one in the group, and also quite fond of A-Train.
He can take flight, and sometimes even takes those in the group who cannot fly along with him if the need for that arises. But his most important power lies in his skin tissue, which is capable of being impenetrable when he uses a secret word.
9 Mister Marathon
In the comics, before A-Train came into the picture, it was Mister Marathon who filled in the shoes of the fastest Supe in The Seven. It is implied that he was replaced before the events on the show took place, but it's unclear if he’s dead or alive.
In the comics, he dies during the 9/11 crisis when Homelander tries to stop the plane but accidentally crashes into it and kills Mister Marathon in the process. As a non-flying member of the group, he had to be carried around by either Homelander or Jack from Jupiter.
8 Blarney Cock
Blarney Cock is prone to robbing painkillers from children’s hospitals to indulge in his drug habits. He does so by accompanying his best friend, Whack Job, for these trips. Later, he accidentally gets killed by Hughie—there is even a funeral for him—but then comes back from the dead, only to be killed off once again by Hughie.
This itself would enough to make Blarney an interesting character. However, it was also revealed that he was Queen Maeve’s son with The Legend, and it was the latter who ordered Hughie to kill him the second time.
7 Tek Knight
Tek Knight is a bit different than the other Supes, for he doesn’t have any innate powers. Instead, he wears a suit with all the technologically advanced functions. Although he can fly using the very same suit, he tends to use a variety of vehicles to move around. The most notably un-Supe characteristic part of his personality though, is that he is actually nice (and boring, according to Butcher).
Former member of the Maverikz and current associate of Payback, Tek Knight also has a sidekick by the name of Laddio and a frenemy called Talon who often changes sides.
6 Whack Job
A member of the Teenage Kix, another Vought-sponsored superhero team, Whack Job is perhaps the most punk Supe out there with a Mohawk on the top of his head. A close friend of Blarney Cock, he falls into a great depression when his best mate dies.
His power is similar to that of Starlight; he has electrokinesis, granting him the ability to conjure electricity. But he is more interested in his drug habit, running off to hospitals to steal painkillers from young children admitted there.
5 Five-Oh
Wearing a helmet on his head and sporting a wardrobe fit for motorcycle rides, Five-Oh is an emotionless, slightly rude, member of the G-Men. The team’s name itself is a play on the X-Men, although its members aren’t perhaps as just as Charles Xavier’s group of mutants.
He doesn’t seem to hold many superheroes or ordinary people in high regard—the only exceptions being John Godolkin, who he’s fiercely loyal to, and Cold Snap, with whom he seems to have formed some sort of a friendship.
4 Silver Kincaid
A member of G-Men, Silver Kincaid has a variety of gravity and pressure-related powers. Hers is not a particularly happy life, for she is kidnapped by John Godolkin, leader of G-Men, and is forced to join his team. She suffers quite a lot as a result of the traumatic experience and later tried to do the right thing by contacting the CIA about the misdeeds of G-Men.
Unfortunately, it all only led to more depression in her case, and in a moment of great, terrible pain, she killed herself in a public area.
3 Critter
Perhaps the tallest and furriest of Supes, Critter is an unusually irritable team member of G-Men who is also both homophobic and racist. He has no fear of contradicting his boss, Godolkin, and is quite direct in confronting him about the functioning of the team.
Around his neck, he wears an Elizabethan collar and on his hands, he puts on a pair of boxing gloves so as to not scratch himself all the time. Going on physical appearance alone, Critter is perhaps the oddest looking of all the superheroes.
2 Ground Hawk
Ground Hawk is yet another rude and temperamental Supe in The Boys universe. He has sledgehammers for hands, which makes him unable to eat or drink on his own. He has to depend on others to consume anything. He also has the rather brutal, and cannibalistic, tendency to eat his enemies alive. But the one great thing about his hammer-hands is that he is capable of killing someone with one hit on the head.
Another personality trait of his is his preference for the word “gonna” in conversations. But overall, what comes across when one looks at Ground Hawk is a parody of X-Men’s Wolverine from the comics.
1 Oh Father
Homelander first meets Oh Father, a preacher and a superhero, during a religious festival as a part of his plan to help convince the military forces to include Supes in their armies. He believes that Oh Father might be able to act as an intermediary between Vought and the military since he is a very well-connected man.
Aside from this, Oh Father is also in charge of the group, Sidekicks 12, made up of superhuman children—who, it's hinted, he sexually abuses—and possesses himself the powers of flight and enhanced strength.
