The Boys hypes Herogasm week with an apt new emoji that it couldn’t get Twitter to approve. Based on Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson’s comic, The Boys was created by showrunner Eric Kripke alongside Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg. The series follows a group of dysfunctional, non-powered vigilantes who team up to bring justice to abusive superheroes, a.k.a. “Supes,” and the conglomerate that enables them, Vought International. Throughout season 1 and 2, The Boys has put its TV-MA to use, with season 3 upping the ante in almost every perceivable way — from a bizarre opening Termite scene to the demise of the Deep’s friend Timothy. That said, The Boys season 3, episode 6 is poised to be the most outrageous yet.
Ennis and Robertson’s original Herogasm event was a giant, secret and depraved party for superheroes. Following season 2, Kripke announced that The Boys season 3 would feature a live-action version of the Herogasm story, and that it would be as wild as the one in the orignal The Boys comics. This sentiment has been echoed by the show’s cast and crew, who have already talked about the strange experience they had filming Herogasm. Since season 3’s episode titles were revealed in advance, audiences knew to expect “Herogasm” in episode 6, which drops on Prime Video later this week.
