The Seven, Payback, Teenage Kix, Fantastico, and every other supe on Earth team-up for an annual event like no other...and where the supes go, can a certain "five complications and a dog" be far behind? Vought-American prepare to make their move, in a story that will change the world of the Boys forever: Herogasm!

Interesting volume.  I could have done without all the "activities."  I did like the reveal of what's been going on in the White House.  It leads to some intriguing conclusions and speculations about just what the war is about.  I can't wait to find out what happens next...
