I think we’d be crazy not to,–because Soldier Boy and Stormfront founded it, and they are the two leads of this new show.
Fans have already seen that those squeaky-clean superheroes people love to adore are actually a bunch of hormone-fueled party animals. And its biggest proof comes inSeason 3 Episode 6ofThe Boys,as viewers get a glimpse of the event that Soldier Boy first set in motion, and it’s clear that, decades later, it’s still thriving, to say the least.
In the comics,Herogasmis an infamous annual event where every year, these supes ditch their capes for something a little less…heroic. They jet off to a secret location for a weekend of absolute obnoxity. Think ogies, dugs, and the whole nine yards of visibly very illegal activities one has the capability of imagining. All while the public back home is cheering them on for“saving the world”or whatever fake crisis Vought cooks up to cover their tracks during their time off.

Vought, as everyone knows, is now one of the most dominant conglomerates globally, practically owning everything in sight. But how did it all begin? What exactly is Compound V? And what else is lurking in the shadows of this vast empire? All these burning questions will be explored inVought Rising.

We cannot wait to blow your minds and trouble your souls with this salacious, grisly saga drenched in blood and Compound V.
