The Boys is a new series on Amazon Prime Video that focuses on a team of vigilantes who take self-serving superheroes down a peg or two. Star Trek star Karl Urban is the leader of the vigilantes, called The Boys. The superheroes, who are warped by fame and various vices, are called The Seven.

The Boys plot (season 1 recap)

In season 1, the corrupt superheroes known as The Seven cause a young man named Hughie (Jack Quaid) to seek out revenge when they accidentally kill his girlfriend. Hughie hooks up with anti-cape vigilantes called The Boys.

The team consists of charismatic leader Billy Butcher (Karl Urban), along with Mother's Milk (Laz Alonso), Female (Karen Fukuhara) and Frenchie (Tomer Capon).

But there's also strife within The Seven when newcomer Annie January/Starlight (Erin Moriarty) joins the superhero crew. She wrestles with everything from the perils of fame to dealing with a #MeToo nightmare. Through her eyes, we see everything that's wrong with The Seven and how they abuse their power as superheroes.
