What to Watch After The Boys

Beyond Heroes: Four Darkly Delicious Picks for The Boys Fans

If you love the razor‑sharp satire and brutal hero‑busting of Amazon’s The Boys, you’ll want to dive into four standout series that each spin the formula in a fresh direction. Devil May Cry erupts onto the scene with a brand‑new animated spin on a demon‑hunting anti‑hero, Cashero flips the superhero trope into a cash‑driven Korean drama, Néro the Assassin drags the assassin‑revenge narrative back to 16th‑century France, and The Copenhagen Test delivers a high‑octane techno‑thriller about hacked senses and corporate espionage. Together they form a quartet that balances the new, the classic, the fan‑favorite, and the unmistakable perfect match for The Boys’ gritty, morally‑gray universe.

What ties these picks together is a common thread of power‑corruption, gritty realism, and protagonists who must wrestle with their own demons—whether literal, financial, or digital. Devil May Cry’s fresh animation and over‑the‑top combat satisfy the craving for new blood, while Cashero’s satirical take on wealth as super‑power grounds the fantasy in contemporary social commentary. Néro the Assassin offers a timeless, blood‑soaked redemption arc that feels both classic and visceral, and The Copenhagen Test caps the set with a sleek, audience‑approved thriller that explores surveillance and identity. For fans of The Boys, each series promises the same blend of high‑stakes action, dark humor, and a relentless questioning of who really holds the reins.
