How Victoria Neuman Is Connected To [SPOILER] In The Boys
Caution: spoilers ahead for The Boys season 3
Victoria Neuman's secret is out thanks to The Boys season 3. We break down her relationship with Stan Edgar, her allegiance to Vought, and her shocking Red River backstory. The Boys season 2 introduced Claudia Doumit as Congresswoman Victoria Neuman, named after «Vic the Veep» from Garth Ennis' original comic books.

I Can't Believe It's Not AOC used her powers to kill the CIA's Susan Raynor, disrupt Vought's congressional hearing, and assassinate the Church of the Collective's Alastair Adana.
