| Summary, Etc. |
"This is going to hurt! In a world where costumed heroes soar through the sky and masked vigilantes prowl the night, someone's got to make sure the 'supes' don't get out of line. And someone will! Billy Butcher, Wee Hughie, Mother's Milk, The Frenchman, and The Female are The Boys: A CIA-backed team of very dangerous people, each one dedicated to the struggle against the most dangerous force on Earth -- superpower! Some superheroes have to be watched. Some have to be controlled. And some of them -- sometimes -- need to be taken out of the picture. That's when you call in The Boys!" Desperate to understand the world he's now a part of, Hughie turns to the man behind it all -- the bizarre figure known only as The Legend. Sixty years of the Vought-American corporation's superhero agenda for America are soon revealed, with the worst secret of all beginning on 9/1101. As Hughie's affair with the beautiful young Annie January blossoms into love, The Boys take a run at Vought's number one franchise The G-Men -- but neither they, G-Force, G-Coast, G-Style, G-Wiz nor the G-Nomads are about to give up their slice of the G-Pie. For the worst reasons in the world, their millionaire leader John Godolkin must be protected... even unto death."-- Provided by publisher.
