In "Good For The Soul" (issues 15-18): Hughie visits The Legend, determined to find out more about The Boys - their history, their personalities, and their mysterious hidden agenda. Meanwhile, Annie January (alias Starlight) has her own doubts about membership of The Seven. This storyline also reveals a little more about the other members of the team - beginning with Butcher, and his relationship with CIA director Susan Rayner. In "I Tell You No Lie, G.I." (issues 19-22): Wee Hughie sits down with The Legend to get the lowdown on the Boys and their enemies from the very beginning. All will be revealed, or at least that's what Hughie's expecting - who started it all, who did what to whom, why the Twin Towers are still up and the Brooklyn Bridge is down. Meanwhile, Butcher and the others meet their sparring partners...and deep down in the bowels of their hovering headquarters, Annie and A-Train discover the Seven's darkest secret. Also includes a complete cover gallery!
----------
In a world where costumed heroes soar through the sky and masked vigilantes prowl the night, someone's got to make sure the "Supes" don't get out of line. And someone will.
Billy Butcher, Wee Hughie, Mother's Milk, The Frenchman and The Female are The Boys: a CIA-backed team of very dangerous people, each one dedicated to the struggle against the most lethal force on Earth - superpower. Some superheroes have to be watched. Some have to be controlled. And some of them - sometimes - need to be taken out of the picture.
That's when you call in The Boys.
In Good For the Soul, everyone has something to get off their chest: Frenchie and the Female are up to something nasty with the Mafia, Mother's Milk goes to see his mom, Annie January wants a word with God himself, and Butcher enjoys yet another ghastly tryst with CIA Director Rayner. The Legend, meanwhile offers to tell Hughie everything he wants to know about The Boys- all Hughie has to do is take a walk with the dead. And in I Tell You No Lie, G.I., the beans are spilled: sixty years of Vought-American's superhero agenda for America, with every dirty trick, shady deal and black operation since World War Two revealed at last. The Boys, meanwhile, confront the Seven on the site of the superheroes' greatest failure. The worst secret of all is what really happened ealy one September morning, not so long ago in New York City...
