In The Boys it’s perfectly acceptable for supes to murder criminals in the most horrific ways they can come up with, unlike in Marvel, and usually without any kind of reaction from the public.
This begins in the opening scene of The Boys series premiere. Queen Maeve and Homelander team up to stop some bank robbers. After Maeve takes out their truck, two of the robbers take a pair of boys hostage.
Homelander disarms one of the robbers by heating up his gun with laser vision. He picks up the second robber and hurls him into the air. While he’s taking selfies with the boys he saved, the robber lands on a car a quarter mile away.
Later that season Homelander pushes his hand into a shooter’s chest and in Season 2 of The Boys Homelander needlessly crushes a robber’s skull while’s he’s being pleasured by Stormfront.
Even Homelander’s son, Ryan, accidentally kills a supposed kidnapper—actually a stunt coordinator in a staged kidnapping—when he throws him against a wall.
In spite of some of these examples unfolding around plenty of people taking pictures and videos, nothing ever happens as a result.
