Good video and I loved the new review style - but I'd love to hear some thoughts of Lil G-Man xDD
About The Boys, it's a great series and the parody of the comic industry is just hilarious. Not only about the JLA, and now with the G-Men mocking of the X-Men and all the X-titles, but what I enjoyed the most was the Batman parody (Tek Knight) and the angle about his sexuality and the relation with his sidekicks.
But, the last 2 stories ("I tell you no lie" and "We gotta go now") seems to be a little bit slower than the rest of them. I don't find those shocking moments and stunning cliffhangers, but I'm sure we'll see more action in the following issues.

This is my favorite comic right now. I agree with Baal Zak that the Tek Knight parody of Batman was excellent.

The art inside is all Darick. It's his and Ennis' comic.

The cover art for that issue is a spoof of Animal House. It's supposed to be silly. I agree I was not into the cover either since it broke from the normal flow of cover art for The Boys.

Ive read it before but its is just one where I never can take it out the store. Im still technically underage but I love how real the story is. I agree if people had powers they would be doing the same thing but I also love how much it satires the other comic books. I think my fav is how if you have enough compound V some guys just come back to life. and its funny cause some times I get tired of all the ways people come back to life , but if you get pass the sex and violence it is a good book. It like the lives of real celebrities if they were real heroes.

I loved the book, up until about issue 20. I gave up, I was bored. Still a great read... at least the first 18 were.
