Everywhere is metaphor. And in the world of Gen V, that is almost literally true.
Gen V is the latest (and perhaps first fully fledged) spin-off from the deliriously brilliant, ultraviolent satirical superhero series The Boys. It is set between series three and the forthcoming series four of the original, with characters from those series showing up at various points, and it centres on the upcoming generation of “supes”. They are the first to know that their superpowers are derived from Vought’s elixir Compound V that was given to them by their parents.
