The comic book TV adaptation also subverts expectations by showing us what happens if the heroes protecting us and supposedly saving the world are controlled by big capitalist businesses that seek to make a profit at every turn. The appropriately titled “Seven on 7” are a series of videos that are released on the 7th day of every month and that act as meta-trailers of sorts that help tease the upcoming season. In the latest story, Vought News Network introduces a new character that has close ties to Starlight.
Say hello to Supersonic
Supersonic is the new character introduced in the latest Vought News Network trailer. He was formerly known as Drummer Boy years ago when he served as the co-leader of the Young Americans along with Starlight. As it turns out, the two weren’t just co-leaders. They apparently had a romantic relationship that did not end well. It appears that Season 3 will explore Supersonic’s relationship with Starlight and the expected lingering tension after the two broke up once Starlight found out that Drummer Boy had slept with other members of the Young Americans. Speaking of Supersonic, his re-emergence as the ideal for “what people really want from a hero” should put a damper on Starlight and Huey’s relationship. The two were hinted to have gotten back together by the end of Season 2. In addition to SuperSonic, the latest teaser trailer for The Boys Season 3 also expanded on the plot threads left hanging by the end of Season 2. This includes The Deep’s campaign against The Church of the Collective and A-Train coming out of retirement to rejoin the Seven.
