Some new photos from the set of the fifth and final season of The Boys have been shared online, and they reveal a first glimpse of some new Supes that will be joining the fray…

In the season 4 finale of The Boys, Homelander took a major step towards taking full control of the United States by removing all political obstacles and rounding-up his enemies, including Mother’s Milk, Frenchie, Kimiko, and Hughie (only Starlight and Butcher remain at large).

It was strongly hinted that Homelander’s plan would involve interning those who opposed him (and possibly even all humans, eventually) in prison camps, and we now have confirmation that “Freedom Camps” will indeed be employed for this purpose.

These latest set photos reveal adverts for the camps on the sides of some buses, which also provide a first look at new Supe team, Teenage Kix.

This group is a parody of the likes of the Young Avengers and Teen Titans, and counts A-Train, Sister Sage and the late Popclaw among its former members. In the comics, the roster also includes Big Game, Jetstreak, Hyperion, Shout Out and Mesme.

While speaking to TV Guide about his plans for the final season last year, show runner Eric Kripke was asked if he’s already decided who is going to survive and who will come to a no-doubt messy end.

“Anyone who dies in season 5 will richly deserve it. We have a certain sense of who live and who dies, but we don’t have it all totally figured out. But you get to do the final season of a show and go out on your own terms, so not everyone’s making it through.”

In the comics, pretty much every major character aside from Hughie and Starlight dies, with Billy Butcher ultimately becoming a full-blown villain and taking out most of his own team. The Prime Video series has never been a particularly faithful adaptation, however, so we can’t see Kripke being quite so merciless.

Yes, Butcher did embrace his darker side in the season 4 finale, but if he does go down – and we’d say both him and Homelander checking out is a given – there will surely be some redemption involved.
