The Boys Omnibus Vol. 4 TP cover

This volume combines the seventh and eighth installments of the series, following Hughie as he navigates new challenges, confronts past relationships, and discovers that returning home may not be as comforting as he hoped.

The Boys Omnibus Vol. 4 TP compiles both volumes 7 and 8 of the renowned series, delving deeper into the world of superheroes and the complexities that surround them. The story follows Hughie, who begins to question the existence of true heroes—those who genuinely fight for truth and justice without ulterior motives. His journey takes an unexpected turn when he encounters a group of teenage adventurers known as SUPERDUPER. However, unbeknownst to Hughie, Butcher has uncovered a significant secret that sets off a series of troubling events.

As the narrative unfolds, the superhero evangelist festival, BELIEVE, serves as a backdrop for pivotal moments in Hughie's life, particularly his relationship with Annie January, also known as Starlight of the Seven. Their bond faces a harrowing climax, forcing Hughie to confront the realities of love and betrayal amid the chaos of a world dominated by superhuman beings.

Seeking solace after the tumultuous events in New York, Hughie returns to his hometown of Auchterladle, a seemingly idyllic Scottish seaside town. However, his hopes for a peaceful retreat are dashed as he discovers that the familiar landscape is fraught with danger. Old friends have changed, new faces harbor sinister intentions, and a figure from his past returns to settle unfinished business. This volume explores the theme of homecoming, questioning whether returning to one’s roots is truly a sanctuary or a catalyst for further turmoil.
