The Boys #6 - WildStorm


I like this book. But, it is a little disturbing. This issue are group, or rather Buther's group, finally goes in to action. They've called out the Teenage Kix. It would be a pretty lopsided fight, but , Butcher's guys are on Blue (?). At least I think that's what it's called. Anyways, it gives them superpowers for a short period of time. But what really surprises the Kix, is how brutal these guys are coming after them. The only one who isn't ready for it is Hughie. He gets jumped by Blarney Cock. Nice name, huh? Anyways, Hughie freaks out and ends up impaling him with his own arm. He feels so bad, he even takes the guys gerbil because he feels bad for him. Even though, I think, it just crawled out of the guys ass. Anyways, Hughie is ready is to quit the group when Butcher sits down with him to tell him his reason for wanting to go after the big guns. It seems one of them raped his wife. While she was caring the baby, she was killed when it burst out of her stomach. Butcher says he knows who did it, and that's why he's going after the 7. Pretty intense book. But I expected nothing less from Garth Ennis. And Darick Robertson's pencils are awesome. You should give it a try. If you haven't.
