The Boys omnibus. Volume four
Synopsis
This omnibus collects The Boys #39–47 alongside the Highland Laddie miniseries. In the main series, Hughie crosses paths with the teenage hero team Super Duper just as Butcher uncovers a secret that sets a brutal scheme into motion, all coming to a head at Believe, a superhero-evangelist festival, where Hughie's relationship with Annie January (Starlight) reaches a breaking point.
Highland Laddie pulls back to follow Hughie alone, returning to his hometown of Auchterladle to reconnect with family and friends and try to process the trauma of his time with The Boys — a quieter, more personal counterpoint to the main series' escalating war with Vought.
