The sixth Dynamite collection of Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson's The Boys is here, with The Boys, Vol. 6: Self-Preservation Society! You can only maim and murder so many superheroes before someone decides to do something about it, and in The Boys' case that means Payback - a superteam of unimaginable power, second only to the mighty Seven. Pulping teenage supes is one thing, but how will our heroes fare against Soldier Boy, Mind-Droid, Swatto, the Crimson Countess, and the Nazi juggernaut known as Stormfront? Blood flies and bones shatter, as Butcher and company meet fire with fire. And in the origin tales of Mother's Milk, the Frenchman and the Female, Hughie learns of the strange paths by which this disparate trio came to join The Boys. From tragedy in Harlem to the slaughter on the Brooklyn Bridge, from the festival of Les Saints De Haw-Haw to the horror lurking under Tokyo, this is a journey of discovery like no other - with only the flickering lamp of insanity to light the way.

Oy. Especially given what she's actually been through, which is I suppose the point. Just. Oy.
Otherwise, this is primarily a bit of backstory on all of the Boys and a bit of the world, which is pretty interesting. Especially... Frenchie being French:
It doesn't make much more sense in context. :)
I enjoyed it.
Pretty[^oy] pictures and spoilers:
Butcher's a badass, who can actually take on five supes and be expected to do fine:
And Britishly snarky (next: WHAT HE SAID, heh):
Grusome of course. Bit off his nose. And it's funny because he can't talk anymore? Oy.
A bit more backstory on exactly what happened with the Brooklyn Bridge. We had a similar plotline in the TV series, but I like how they did it this way better. A bit more direct:
[^oy]: Pretty is... not at all the right word. ( )
