The Boys #2 DC comics (Wildstorm)


Now, the Wildstorm Universe, which has been my favourite hunting ground for awhile has had a bit of a soft reboot. One of the new series to come out of this is the boys. The premise is basically a group of people who keep the heroes in check, or punish them when they do bad, or even just randomly smack one down just cause. This issue is pretty much an intro issue, setting up the main players, and getting across that they don’t care, and how violent and dangerous they are. The everyman character, who I am positive is based on Simon Pegg, is being sort of seduced into joining this group of sociopaths. I haven’t seen anything extraordinary yet, but I am going to give this book a shot for another little while. Hopefully it goes somewhere good, in Wildstorm fashion.
