You know how it is: You’re just trying to live your life one day, spending time with your girlfriend, going for a walk, all that normal stuff. And then one of those ding-dang superheroes suddenly explodes her into a million little pieces because he wasn’t paying enough attention while fighting someone while moving at super-speed. That’s the (extremely graphic) set-up for Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson’s The Boys, one that Amazon subscribers will soon get a chance to enjoy for themselves when the TV adaptation of the comic series comes to streaming service next month. Starring Karl Urban and Jack Quaid as vigilante killers targeting rogue superheroes, the series—produced by Preacher’s Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, plus Supernatural’s Erik Kripke—arrives on the service on July 26.
And if you’re looking for something just a tad lass brutal than black-ops murder masters ripping apart sociopathic gods, well, Amazon has you covered there, too: The service is also offering up the second season of Indian comedy showcase Comicstaan, plus the sports docuseries All Or Nothing, centered this year on the efforts of Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers. (None of which, presumably, feature anyone being torn limb from limb.) Ditto the new season of Kung Fu Panda: The Paws Of Destiny and Dino Dana, although you might want to steer clear of Mike Leigh’s Peterloo or David Robert Mitchell’s Under The Silver Lake, which, while not an Amazon original, is coming to the service on July 1.
