Season 4 ofThe Boysraised the stakes as the series races toward its final time of year , andthe show premise a smorgasbord of new characters . SinceThe Boysarrived on Prime Video in 2019 , the pop superhero series has redefined what superhero fib are . Based on the comic Word of the same name by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson , the show present a reality of powered people who start to view themselves as above even humans . Rather than protecting the weak , these supes live according to any whim they have , regardless of who gets injure .
The first three seasons of the show have established a well-defined line dividing crooked heroes like The Seven , and humans that maltreat up to protect those without power , like The Boys .

8Ambrosius
Voiced By Tilda Swinton
perhaps it ’s unfair to place the defenseless octopus , Ambrosius at the bottom of this list , but their role in the news report in the end adds up to some of the most disturbing scenes in the series . The Deep , aka Kevin Moskowitz , has an strange intimate appetite , possibly stem from his powers , where he becomes unbelievably aroused by sea wight .
