Only three episodes remain in The Boys season four, and the battle drums are sounding across a Vought-dominated America. As Cate and Sam, the formidable Guardians of Godolkin, appear to have aligned with the Seven in their towering fortress, a showdown between Supes seems inevitable.

All hopes now rest on Billy Butcher, who’s aiming to extract more doses of the Supe-killing virus from Sameer Shah. If he succeeds in this risky venture, his next move might involve picking off as many Seven members as possible before his own health deteriorates. The primary targets in his sights: The Deep, Firecracker, and the trio of fresh faces who recently joined the Seven’s ranks.

Black Noir, or rather his successor, also looms large on the hit list. The fate of Black Noir’s disfigured face is a grim reminder of his past. Allegedly mutilated by Soldier Boy during their tumultuous history with Vought’s original hero team, Payback, Black Noir not only bears scars but also endured brain damage that rendered him mute—a tragic twist for the typically silent vigilante archetype.

Intrigue surrounds Noir’s replacement in the Seven, stepping into the shadow of his predecessor following a violent end at the hands of Homelander. As season four unfolds with new episodes dropping weekly on Prime Video, fans brace for the culmination of this dark, twisted saga, with a fifth and final season already confirmed to bring The Boys to its ultimate conclusion.
