Synopsis
This omnibus collects the "Big Ride" arc (The Boys #48–59) alongside Butcher, Baker, Candlestickmaker, which finally reveals Billy Butcher's history with Becky, the woman who once pulled him back from a life of violence before tragedy set him irrevocably on his current path. Told largely in Butcher's own voice, the miniseries traces their relationship from London's East End through the Falklands War to its devastating end.
Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson keep the series' brutal satire of superhero culture running alongside this deeply personal detour into what made Butcher the man leading The Boys' war against Vought.
