I guess the appeal of The Boys to me is that it goes more into how “Super Heroes”. Would be exploited in a capitalist war fuelled society like the US. What happens when the people that are currently in power, would get access to such a thing. When it becomes about profit and image rather than the actual good of society. No sugarcoating whatsoever.
I mean that is kinda the plot of The Boys.
And Captain America civil war
And Hancock
And the incredibles 2
And one of the Spider-Man movies.
And The Incredibles
And one of the Avengers films
