The Boys parodies the "girl power" scene in Avengers: Endgame, highlighting its vacuous attempt at pandering to female fans.
The show mocks Vought's faux feminism and exposes the mistreatment of female Supes, critiquing how women are treated in superhero stories.
The Boys' Season 2 finale offers a satisfying and brutal portrayal of women teaming up to fight a real and terrifying villain, contrasting with Marvel's more fantastical approach.
