The Boys is one of the finest comic book adaptations on the small screen, but it's far from the most faithful. The show treats the original source material like a bucket of ideas to mold into a new story. Every element of the series improves on the comic, with very few exceptions. One of the strangest changes comes in the cast of the titular Boys. Marvin "Mothers" Milk fits perfectly into the series, but his story bears little resemblance to the one in the comics.
