When Adam woke up in the world of The Boys, he thought he was lucky. A glowing 'System' screen appeared in front of him, promising him great powers to survive.
But there was one huge problem: the system's loading bar moved very, very slowly.
For twenty long years, Adam had to live as a normal, weak human. In this world, Vought's "superheroes" treated normal people like trash. Adam stayed quiet, hid from danger, and safely survived for two decades while watching the loading bar slowly go up. 98%... 99%...
Finally, after waiting in the shadows for twenty years, the system reaches 100%.
His reward for being so patient?........The Superman Template.
Right now, his body can only handle 5% of Superman's powers. But Adam knows that even 5% of a true hero's power is enough to crush Vought’s fake, selfish heroes. Because he has watched this world for 20 years, he knows exactly what to do. He finds Billy Butcher and 'The Boys' and joins their team.
Adam doesn't just want to fight Homelander—he wants to play with his mind. Using his new super strength, speed, and bulletproof body, Adam and The Boys make a smart plan to completely scare him.
Homelander has lived his whole life believing he is an untouchable god. But now, a mysterious enemy is hiding in the dark. Someone who can take his laser eyes without a single scratch. Someone who is faster, stronger, and not afraid of him at all. After waiting for twenty years, Adam is finally ready. He is going to make Vought's strongest hero feel something he has never felt before: Pure fear.
