Superheroes, but make them corporate, corrupt and terrifying. 
This show flips the superheroes genre on its head. 
Homelander is Superman with a god complex and zero empathy. 
The Seven are more brand ambassadors than heroes and Vought International runs it all like a PR machine. 
Enter Billy Butcher and his crew, regular humans with vendettas, grit and a lot of swearing. 
The violence is brutal, the satire is razor sharp and the moral compass spins like a broken drone. 
It’s not subtle, but it’s smart. 
The show dives into power, media and manipulation with a wink and a sledgehammer.
