Publisher's Summary
For the first time ever in audio! GraphicAudio and Dynamite Comics are proud to present The Boys, produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects, and cinematic music.
This is going to hurt!
In a world where costumed heroes soar through the sky and masked vigilantes prowl the night, someone has to make sure the "supes" don't get out of line. And someone will!
Billy Butcher, Wee Hughie, Mother's Milk, The Frenchman, and The Female are The Boys: a CIA-backed team of very dangerous people, each one dedicated to the struggle against the most dangerous force on Earth - superpower!
Some superheroes have to be watched. Some have to be controlled. And some of them - sometimes - need to be taken out of the picture. That's when you call in The Boys!
Fourteen issues adapted to GraphicAudio containing The Name of the Game, Cherry, Get Some, and Glorious Five-Year Plan. Joseph Rybandt, executive editor of Dynamite and editor of The Boys, says, “While I did not grow up anywhere near the Golden Age of Radio, I have loved the medium of radio and audio dramas almost my entire life. Podcasts make my commute bearable to this day. To have such an important and powerful piece of graphic fiction adapted into a series of audio dramas? Well, it’s perfect, innit?”

So-So Adaptation
I read the original comics. There were some cool dream sequences and flashbacks in the comic that contain lots of character depth and humor. This adaptation cut these sequences out. Bad decision, Graphic Audio.

Real heroes don’t wear capes
I mean wow just wow. It’s hard to have words on how good the performance is for this. I heard these books where not as good as the tv show. The further could not be the truth. The show tries to be gritty but falls short. It’s like the difference between cooked and raw sushi.

A Great Ride
as an avid watcher of the TV series, I have admittedly been very curious about checking out the comic that inspired the show. I also have been incredibly lazy and haven't gone out of my way to find or purchase it. but just as luck would have it, I come across this audio dramatization of the comic book, which is a happy medium for me. I love everything about this. the acting is great, the story as it is adapted to this format is great, and it's different enough from the show to still be a surprise. I love this and I'm definitely going to be purchasing the other volumes.

Amazing story, but....
I absolutely LOVE this series. I've listened to it multiple times. it's INCREDIBLE and my only complaint is that Butcher sounds exactly like Michael Cain. It makes it difficult to see him as a badass.

Not like the show...and that's good.
Some very big changes in what I was expecting after seeing the first three seasons of the show. This kept me guessing and I was sad when it was over. Definitely going to listen to the next book.

they should double the books up instead of selling them separate

Holy cow
I was a little blown away by this, being a large fan of radio dramas I was curious as to how they would convert a comic book into a audio drama. An boy did they deliver.
I especially like the voice actor they got for Homlander.

More gritty than the series
Loved it. Definitely worth a listen, deeper insight into the characters as you would expect. On to the next one :-)

Absolutely appalling accents
I tried to like this, but I can’t get past the accents which are so bad, they are almost funny. In fact, I wondered if they were being done like this as some kind of joke. Shame because the material really deserves a good adaptation.
