Once known as brooding heartthrob Nate Archibald in Gossip Girl, Crawford is now the somewhat unlikely source of both comic relief and a perverse kind of pathos on The Boys. That Giant Penis From 'The Boys' Season 3 Is Real You just have to look for it in some very, very unusual places-like the doe eyes and quivering lip of one its stars, Chace Crawford, when his character is caught mid-coitus with an octopus during an instant-classic scene in "Herogasm." Crawford's character is called the Deep, and he has the ability to survive under water and commune with sea life, often in uncomfortably intimate ways. He would have been eaten alive at Herogasm, probably literally.īut that doesn't mean The Boys is devoid of subtlety.

And if that wasn't enough, fans of the original comic series by Garth Ennis eagerly anticipated the show's latest episode when they recognized that it shares its title, "Herogasm," with that of an infamous arc from the comics. Heads explode, people explode, whales explode the current third season opens with a penis exploding when an incredible shrinking hero (let's call him an "Ant-ish Man") crawls into his lover's urethra, sneezes, and accidentally bursts back to his normal size. The hit Prime Video show is, after all, a subversive take on the superhero genre whose "heroes"-and those scare quotes are doing some super-human heavy lifting there-routinely do much more damage than good. T he Boys isn't exactly known for its subtlety.
