"The Boys," which is based on Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson comic-book series, debuted on Amazon in July 2019. The show received rave reviews from fans and critics and returned for season two in September 2020. The eight-episode season concludes on Friday, October 9.
Cash's Stormfront suit that she wears on season two includes red accents on the knees and arms, a silver belt, sturdy black boots, and a billowing cape.
