Led by Homelander, the group serves as the first line of defense against disasters, whether it’s a plane crash or a PR fire. However, not every Supe that ends up on the roster is cut from the same cloth. Here’s every member of The Seven from The Boys, ranked by power.
13) Sister Sage
Unlike most members of The Seven, Sister Sage joins the team after being personally recruited by Homelander, who is sick of only having yes-men around. He knows that Sister Sage will push back against him and will also prove to be a valuable asset because of her heightened intelligence. The only downside with Sister Sage’s abilities is that they don’t give her anything in the strength department, making her a liability on the battlefield.
12) Firecracker
One of Sister Sage’s first moves is to bring Firecracker, a popular podcast host, into the fold. Sage believes the recruit can get the public back on The Seven’s side, as her show can spin the narrative in whatever direction Vought sees fit. Firecracker isn’t much of a fighter, though, as her calling card is making sparks with her hands that are more of a party trick than a weapon.
11) Black Noir 2
After Homelander kills Black Noir, Vought doesn’t want the world to believe another member of The Seven is dead. The solution is to hire a Supe actor to pose as the hero during public appearances. While Black Noir II is happy to do Homelander’s dirty work, he’s not nearly as powerful as the original. He can’t even use his flight ability because it would raise suspicion.
10) Translucent
The Boys kicks off with Billy Butcher going after Translucent, the member of The Seven who can turn invisible. Capturing Translucent turns out to be a walk in the park, but his skin is so dense that killing him is another story. Eventually, the titular team develops a bomb that kills him from inside his body, putting him out of commission for good. Losing his life to humans means Translucent can only be so high on this list.
9) Supersonic
Vought will never pass up an oppurtunity to put on a show, so when the chance to recruit a new member for The Seven via a reality show pops up, it’s a no-brainer. Supersonic, an old friend of Starlight’s, wins the whole thing, but he doesn’t last long. Despite being able to create sound waves by clapping and having super hearing, Supersonic dies at the hands of Homelander, who proves they aren’t even in the same league.
8) The Deep
The Deep has had trouble staying at the top of Vought Tower because he abuses his power. Homlander has been keeping him in check the last couple of seasons, which is easy because he’s much more powerful than his teammate. The Deep has superhuman strength and durability, can swim very fast, and can communicate with aquatic life. When he’s not near water, though, he’s a liability.
7) Starlight
Starlight meets her new teammates at the start of The Boys, and they’re not very welcoming. Part of the problem is that they don’t see her as an equal, believing her power to absorb energy and turn it into light is lackluster. Well, she proves them wrong when she masters her abilities and starts dishing out pain with her energy blasts. Starlight also learns how to fly, an ability that allows her to escape from Homelander’s forces in Season 4.
