The Boys stands as one of the most popular superhero series globally. This dark twist on the superhero genre, adapted from the comic book of the same name, gained widespread acclaim on Amazon Prime and continues to push the boundaries of television with its provocative content.
Fans have embraced the series since its debut, often praising its audacious satire of cultural and societal elements as a key factor in its success. Recently, viewers have revisited Season 2 and noticed how the show parodied a pivotal moment from Avengers: Endgame, which many found cheesy and cringeworthy.
In a recent wave of rediscovered admiration for the series’ sharp satire, fans have taken to the internet to applaud how effectively The Boys mocked one of the most successful superhero films of all time. This renewed enthusiasm is why we’re bringing it to your attention.
The discussion began with an Instagram post where the author pointed out the similarities:
He then elaborated on why The Boys exemplifies genius-level satire:
This is why The Boys is goated 😂
The “Girls Get It Done” part in The Boys is a direct parody of the all-female superhero team-up scene in Avengers: Endgame.
In The Boys Season 2, this phrase is used as a marketing slogan by Vought to promote the female members of The Seven—Starlight, Queen Maeve, and the newly introduced Stormfront—highlighting their girl-power image to the public.
However, the show uses this slogan to satirize how media and corporations often exploit feminist messaging for profit, without genuinely supporting gender equality.
This theme culminates in the finale of Season 2, where the female characters—Starlight, Queen Maeve, and Kimiko—team up to beat down Stormfront in a brutal fight.
While this scene does genuinely showcase female strength and solidarity, it’s laced with The Boys’ signature dark humor, mocking the superficiality of how “girl power” is sometimes presented in superhero films like those in the Marvel universe.
And the fans agreed. If you look at the comments section, matthew_d.101 and sevensovercast wrote how “its funny because later in the same season The Boys did it again unironically but it was actually good” and “That scene in Endgame would’ve been better if nothing was said”. jordancaruso ultimately added that “The Boys is such a freakin awesome show”.
