Gore in superhero movies and television is nigh inescapable these days. Prime Video’s The Boys <\/em>has undoubtedly been a trendsetter since its 2019 premiere, followed by other recent examples like James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad <\/em>and Peacemaker<\/em>the animated series Invincible<\/em>and Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, <\/em>each offering their own version of blood and guts in a superhero story.<\/p>\n The third season of The Boys<\/em>which premiered with its first three episodes on Prime Video Friday, takes this to new heights with an extended and extremely X-rated gag featuring an Ant-Man-type character named Termite.<\/p>\n [Ed. note:<\/strong> This piece contains spoilers for The Boys <\/em>season 3 episode 1.]<\/p>\n In the first episode of the new season, Frenchie (Tomer Kapon) and Kimiko (Karen Fukuhara) are hunting down a superhero named Termite. He is able to shrink down to a miniscule size, much like Marvel’s Ant-Man.<\/p>\n When we meet Termite, he is the life of the party – the guests are all watching him simulate sex with a doll in a dollhouse. Soon after, he retreats to a private room with a romantic partner. The pair snort lines of cocaine together, and then, on request, Termite shrinks down and jumps into his romantic partner’s penis, like a spelunker walking into a gigantic phallic cave. When inside, he touches the walls of this \u201ccave\u201d playfully, to stimulate his partner di lui. <\/p>\n
