In a world where superheroes roam the earth in search of justice for the
common man, who brings justice to the superheroes? The Boys do. Butcher, Wee
Hughie, Mother's Milk, The Frenchman, and The Female are the badasses that keep
the supes in line — protecting mankind from some truly deranged
superheroes. Now, for the first time ever, fans can experience the entire
collection of fantastically controversial cover art from series artist and
co-creator Darick Robertson. This edition also includes all of the exclusive
variant covers by legendary guest artists Jim Lee, Dave Gibbons, Howard Chaykin,
David Lloyd, and John Cassaday. Topped off with a bonus Afterward by producer
Adam McKay (Anchorman, Talladega Nights), the definitive
collection of covers fans have been clamoring for has officially arrived —
all in one glorious hardcover!
Creator Commentary from Darick
Robertson:
"What's really fun about this book, in my opinion, is to watch the covers
unfold like a story in and of itself. I hope that's what you'll get out of it.
Ennis had a great imagination for covers and I always looked forward to what
he'd suggest next. In the beginning, I was coming up with numerous sketches and
ideas to present, but as we went on, the covers became a real collaboration and
he always had a good idea. Some of these sketches (sometimes it would take more
than one) are presented here so you can see the evolution of the process.
Revisiting the world of The Boys by creating a new cover for this project
only seemed appropriate, like spending time with some not-so-friendly old
friends."
