Synopsis

This omnibus collects two arcs of The Boys: Good for the Soul, in which Butcher sends Hughie on a solo undercover mission inside a reckless young superhero team while an aging insider lays out Vought-American's real relationship with the U.S. government, and We Gotta Go Now, in which Hughie and Mother's Milk investigate this world's answer to the X-Men after one of their own dies in a very public suicide.

Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson keep expanding the series' corrupt-superhero satire while deepening Hughie's disillusionment with the world Butcher has pulled him into.
