Character Stats and Profiles Wiki

In the past, we have encouraged users to create new pages for powers and abilities they thought the wiki lacked. However, as of now, we want new pages to be approved by the staff, meaning that new powers and abilities pages must be suggested. This can be done in our official Discord server in the suggestion channel, or messaged to a staff member. Of course, users can always create blogs about powers and abilities to include in their profiles if they don't want to attempt creating official pages. Linking to other wikis' powers and abilities pages is also permitted.

See, people love that cozy feeling supes give them. Some golden c**t to swoop out of the sky and save the day so you don't got to do it yourself. But if you knew half the shit they get up to? Ooh... fuckin' diabolical. But then... that's where I come in.

Summary[]

Billy Butcher was the husband of Rebecca Butcher, a Vought International employee who disappeared after being violated by the Homelander. Following this, he accepts an invitation by CIA officer Grace Mallory to join The Boys, a team she had founded aiming to expose the crimes of other corrupt superheroes like Homelander, but the team is disbanded after a failed mission ends with a hero killing Mallory's grandchildren.

Eight to nine years later, Billy approaches Hughie Campbell when Hughie's girlfriend, Robin Ward, is accidentally killed by A-Train, with the two reforming and expanding the team as they launch a secret war against the Seven (and Vought) in an effort to end their superhero menace once and for all.

    Intelligence: Gifted. (As the leader of the Boys, Billy is a federally trained tactician who has directed successful operations in espionage, capture and blackmail against even the most powerful superheroes and corporations in the world. Came up with idea of bluffing about having evidence of Homelander's son to Edgar in order to stop Black Noir's attack on the spot and succeeded. He is also a clever fighter, as he revealed Translucent's invisible body by spitting his own blood onto it during their fight, and fabricated an explosive vest, that was activated by pressure-controlled remote, so that if Homelander killed him the explosives will still go off)

    Weaknesses:

    Standard human weaknesses. Reckless in his desire to take the Seven (especially Homelander) down. Is willing to throw away missions and even risk his life in other to protect those he care for.

    Same as before, minus his human limitations. Temp-V is only temporary and its effects only last for 24 hours. Its effects can make Billy feel ill and it causes brain lesions, with 3 to 5 doses stated to be lethal. The regeneration from taking Temp-V only heals injuries the user had prior to taking it. After taking several doses of Temp-V, Billy eventually developed brain tumors, and has an estimated lifespan of 18 months. As a supe, he is vulnerable to high-frequency sounds, which can cause him immense pain.

    His health is slowly deteriorating due to the evolution of his cancer, which also started to cause him to see hallucinations of his deceased wife Becca, as well as from an ex-coworker named Joe Kessler, who Butcher thought was real and alive for a time. After taking Compound V to try and cure himself, it ended up giving powers and sentience to his tumor, which (represented by this hallucination of Joe Kessler) constantly tries to influence Butcher to follow his darkest desires, eventually succeeding. Initially, Butcher had no control over his tumor's powers, though by the end of Season 4, he seems to have control over it, as long as he follows his dark side.

    Note: While every weapon would include the Tsar Bomba, there’s reasons why the statement likely wouldn’t include that bomb. For one, at this moment in time, only Russia had access to the Tsar Bomba, so it’s not very likely that they had used that specific nuke on him. The second issue is that Soldier Boy, who is considered nearly as strong as Homelander himself was stated to be able to die to Hydrogen bombs which include the Tsar Bomba, and three, Vought likes to lie a lot and they aren't credible at all, so its very unlikely that Theye'd actually have access to nuclear weapons. Also, regarding Nubia, Homelander wouldn't scale to it as we don't see her create her storm in a combat applicable way, plus I've heard that the feat has apparently been debunked to Large Building Level, i don't not have the debunk, but i did send a friend request to someone who supposedly has it and im waiting from a response from them. Its also a Hax thing as well. So it’s very likely that Soldier Boy, Homelander, and Billy wouldn’t upscale nukes.
