As someone who does like watching superhero-based shows and films from time to time, The Boys feels like a breath of fresh air to me. At the time of me writing this, I'm just about wrapped up with the first season, and it is pretty good.

My favorite thing about "The Boys" is its concept. The idea of a team of super "heroes" being owned by a big, multinational conglomerate and a team of regular, superpowerless individuals who are trying to expose them as the monsters they are is a concept I've never seen done in a superhero series.

You have plenty of mainstream superhero films and shows where the "heroes" are seen as vigilantes by some, but seen as saviors by others (i.e., Captain America: Civil War, The Dark Knight trilogy, etc.), whereas the Seven, as they're called, are essentially gods to the everyman.

As far as the production quality goes, the cinematography, the effects, and the acting are all top-notch. Karl Urban's performance is a darn good one to say the least, along with Jack Quaid's.

Overall, The Boys is a well done subversion of the superhero genre, and if you haven't seen it yet, definitely check it out if you like the superhero genre.
