Amazon Prime's adaptation of The Boys comic series by Garth Ennis has garnered a pretty significant reputation in the years following its initial introduction and for the most part at least, has received some very prominent praise amongst its ever increasing audience. However, the series as a whole is incredibly divergent from the source material and deviates from the core storyline of the original comic series in a lot of significant ways, and arguably the most significant example of the show's deviation from the comics is in its depiction of the characters. In most cases, such as with Butcher and Homelander, a lot of character depictions in the show line up pretty seamlessly to their original comic book counterparts. While in other cases, such as with Hughie, Black Noir and Stormfront, they couldn't be more far removed from this. As a relatively casual fan of The Boys (both the comics and the show), I thought it would be fun to try and cast the characters in such a way that would be more akin to how they're represented in the actual comic series. Let's get diabolical!
