Soldier Boy seems like an important character in The Boys season 3, so here's everything you need to know about him and his powers.

The Boys has changed a lot since its first season. Now it's not just about The Seven, the most important superheroes of the Vought International, but the show is focusing on the other Supes as well. The first three episodes of The Boys season 3 were released just recently, and there's a long list of new superheroes introduced in the show. The one that got the most attention from the fans was Soldier Boy, a Supe who was a part of Operation Charly with Grace.

Soldier Boy In The Boys: Character Explained

We got the first introduction of Soldier Boy in season 2 when Stan Edgar made Homelander the leader of The Seven. But we didn't get any proper introduction to his character until now. He worked alongside Grace and other Supes like Swatto, TNT Twins, Noir, Gunpowder, and others in Operation Charly. He wasn't part of The Seven but another group known as Payback. Stormfront and Black Noir were parts of that group as well, and Soldier Boy was the leader of the group. You can consider him as the Captain America of The Boys, but obviously not as kind and heroic as him.

Soldier Boy Powers Explained

Just like every other Supe, Soldier Boy has incredible strength, far beyond the reach of a normal human. Unlike Homelander, he cannot break the sound barrier with his speed, but he possesses the speed of a superhuman. Soldier Boy was alive during the time of WW2, and he is still in great shape. So it's safe to assume that he doesn't age normally and has a longer lifespan.

When Soldier Boy is in extreme anger, he unintentionally fires deadly energy blasts, but it's quite rare. His extremely protective suit, shield, and combat knife add to his strength. Being a near copy of Captain America, Soldier Boy is a skilled combatant and an expert in handling knives and artillery.
