The Boys: Best Superhero Costumes, Ranked

The Boys quickly became famous for its dark humor, shocking plot twists, and thrilling storylines. This show also has some of the most powerful and fascinating heroes and villains ever. Over the seasons, fans had a chance to learn more about their favorite characters and even meet some of the strongest superheroes who are not part of The Seven.

While The Boys never shies away from violence and weirdness, the creators also included plenty of hilarious and even wholesome moments in the series. The creators not only pay special attention when it comes to character development, personality, or storylines but also when it comes to costumes. The Boys has some of the most impressive, detailed, and purposeful costumes that fit perfectly with the supes' superpowers and personalities.

8 Starlight

Starlight's first costume was her best not only because it looked great but also for what it represented. Starlight had great moments in the series right from the start, which turned her into a fan-favorite character instantly. She's the bright and positive person who always represented hope in a world filled with terrifying and immoral superheroes.

Starlight's first white costume with the golden stars was a perfect fit both with her powerful light powers and her idealistic way of thinking. She's also one of the characters who changed the most during the seasons, and while she became less idealistic, she's still determined to use her powers for good to help humanity.

7 Stormfront

While Stormfront is one of the most despicable and most diabolical villains in The Boys, her costume is still pretty cool. She's also one of the most powerful characters in the series who definitely doesn't use her impressive electricity manipulation powers for good.

Stormfront's deep dark full-body supe costume with boots and gloves was a new look for the character compared to the comic. The black color with red stripes and the costume's more conservative style is a perfect fit with her powers as well as her close-minded and bigoted personality.

6 Black Noir

Black Noir's superhuman strength and cold yet mysteriously personality were matched perfectly with his costume. He's one of The Boys' strongest antagonists who's always ready to support Homelander in any way necessary.

Black Noir also has one of the highest kill counts among the supes and has no problem with attacking and murdering humans or fellow supes. His full-body and face cover costume looks just as powerful and mysterious as the character who wears it. Thanks to Black Noir's full face cover costume, he was also the one whose personality was hidden for the longest in the series.

5 The Deep

The Deep is one of the show's most emotional and weirdest villains with one of the most fun and coolest-looking costumes. The Deep's costume has a green color with some gold that's a great match with his powers and his extroverted personality.

The Deep has special connections with sea animals because he's not only capable of understanding them but even able to have full conversations with any of the creatures. While his special supe powers are useful, they often caused him emotional pain he's not able to control, and he lost fights because of them.

4 Lamplighter

Lamplighter was one of the most sadistic original members of The Seven. He had powerful pyrokinetic abilities he liked to use to torture and even burn people alive. He'd easily control and manipulate fire which made him one of the most dangerous enemies.

Lamplighter's costume also looked different in the series than in the comics. He wore a fireproof cloak with a hood and glasses that gave him a bit of protection against extreme heat while also giving his character a memorable look. His ominous-looking costume perfectly matched his dark and violent personality.

3 Queen Maeve

Queen Maeve is one of the most honorable characters in The Boys, and she is also one of the strongest ones of The Seven. She has superhuman strength and can easily overpower other supes except for Soldier Boy, Black Noir, and Homelander.

Queen Maeve is also one of the main characters who went through a lot of change since she was one of the major antagonists but eventually decided to join the good side and turned into a true heroic supe. Her costume looks empowering, and thanks to its Amazonian-like design, it perfectly matches Queen Maeve's exceptional fighting skills and almost unmatched strength.

2 Soldier Boy

Soldier Boy's character is one of the best superhero parodies in The Boys, who quickly became a fan-favorite character during the show's 3rd season. Even though he was one of the season's main antagonists, fans fell in love with him and can't wait to learn more about his character and see how his personality will develop in the series.

While Soldier Boy doesn't have a problem with using his power against innocents or causing pain for others, he always takes his job seriously as a supe and believes that they have to be true patriots. He has superhuman strength and possibly might even be capable of overpowering Homelander under the right circumstances. Soldier Boy's costume is a perfect blend of a soldier's uniform and a supe's superhero costume, which perfectly reflects his personality.

1 Homelander

Homelander is The Boys' main antagonist fans love to hate. Over the seasons, Homelander has done some horrible things that turned him into one of the most terrifying superheroes ever created. He's a narcissistic and sadistic psychopath who enjoys hurting others, especially if things don't go the way he'd want to.

Even though he's the leader of The Seven and should be the face of peace and hope, he's secretly an evil maniac who uses everyone around him. His red, blue, and white true American superhero costume, which he never fully removes, is the perfect fit and helps Homelander keep up the fake appearances as the Nation's most honorable supe.
