It doesn't work, and Vought's wettest supe ends season 2 still reeking of shrimp and desperation.
Voiced by his live-action actor, Chace Crawford, The Deep's next appearance comes in «BFFs» — an episode of animated anthology spinoff, The Boys: Diabolical. The story stars Sky (voiced by Awkwafina), who finds a stolen sample of Compound-V and gives herself superpowers. Because a regular kid like Sky knows what Compound-V is and what it does, «BFFs» must take place sometime after The Boys season 2, which is when the blue goo went public.

Though not exactly the sharpest tool in Vought's box, there's no faulting Deep's logic here. Stan Edgar will be apoplectic
