Darick Robertson - The Boys #1

The Boys #1 changed the way we look at traditional superheroes. It challenged the tropes built over decades in the bestselling of titles and brought a satire to its storytelling that changed the medium forever. Written by Garth Ennis and illustrated by Darick Robertson, the series introduced readers to a twisted set of superheroes who were as corrupt as they were powerful. The Boys were set up as a covert group willing to do whatever it takes to expose and stop them. Ennis's incredible satire, sharp critique of corporate superheroes, and brutal realism captured the imaginations of fans looking for more mature and over the top storytelling. Amazon Prime's series based on The Boys has become one of its most successful and wonderfully gonzo programs ever.
