The Boys Volume 6: The Self-Preservation Society by Garth Ennis

5.0

I was a little exhausted by some of the more excessive elements of Herogasm (which I appreciate is quite a "well duh" kind of statement when applied to a Garth Ennis series, but hey, it's the truth) so the first half of The Self-Preservation Society, whilst entertaining as ever, had me a bit worried that I would lose interest in the series. But then the second half came along and put my mind to rest, providing delightfully demented back stories for three of The Boys as well as showing more tantalising glimpses of a shadowy figure that I for one want to know more about. This volume has also made Frenchie my favourite character. Hilarious and surprisingly thought-provoking stuff.
