"Was made into a film which did not entirely do it justice. An enigmatic righteous rebel in an all-too-possible post apocalyptic Thatcherite Britain. Alan Moore's finest work to date"
"Alan Moores next finest. At the time a wonderfully original and dark vision of a "what if super heroes had existed during the cold war" which has influenced countless writers since."
"Ennis does it again. What if Superheroes behaved like real people i.e massively flawed egotist bullies? Someone needs to keep them in line. Enter "The Boys"! A joy to behold for any comics veteran."
"yet again with Ennis. Anyone born and bred in belfast will immediatly understand the characters in this wonderfully funny tale of bad luck, violence and stupidity."
