Vought international

First became a supe, she had a daughter named Chloe Vought, with her father being the company's founder. Chloe Vought died shortly before the events of The Boys season 2, but an image of an elderly version of the character standing next to Stormfront can be seen. Giving Stormfront a daughter in Vought Rising could add a much-needed human element to the character, giving her more to do than simply being an evil supe. Since characters like Soldier Boy and Stormfront are basically irredeemable, having an innocent child appear in the show could give Vought Rising some heart, making her off-screen passing even sadder. The Chloe storyline is ripe for expansion, which is why she needs to appear in The Boys prequel. 1 Frederick Vought Mentioned In The Boys Show Of all the unannounced characters who could appear in Vought Rising, Frederick Vought is one of the most important. Frederick Vought is the founder of Vought International and the Nazi scientist who invented Compound V, with him turning Stormfront into a supe. The 1950s setting perfectly lines up with this part of The Boys' lore, meaning that he needs to appear in the prequel. Since the series is titled Vought Rising, the origins of the company will undoubtedly be incredibly important to the show's story. Since Frederick Vought is the founder of Vought, it only makes sense for him to appear, as he is the character that incited the entire The Boys universe. Frederick Vought is one of The Boys'

Superhero company after recruiting Jonah Vogelbaum. The series version was founded by Nazi scientist-turned-businessman Fredrick Vought and was a 'superhero company' from the start.The series' version is far more sinister then in the comics. While they were already highly amoral in the comics, covering up heroes' vicious actions and willing to kill those who step out of line, the series version was created as a secret Nazi conspiracy to build an 'army of Supermen' to take over the world; and have also been secretly practicing human experimentation for decades. Vought is even willing to experiment on children, as Homelander's origins reveal.The company in the comics existed during World War II, during which time they manufactured aircrafts (similar to the real-world Vought corporation). In the TV series, they are not founded until after the war.A real company called Vought existed between the 1920s and the 1960s and was responsible for manufacturing many famous military planes. In the original The Boys comic series by Garth Ennis, one of the planes built by the fictional Vought company is called the F7U; this was also the name of a plane built by the real Vought company.[]Vought International is heavily inspired by real-world corporations that dominate entertainment, defense, pharmaceuticals, and media.The company shares many similarities with Disney, particularly in its control over superhero branding, merchandising, and film franchises, similar to how Disney manages Marvel Studios.Vought’s involvement with the U.S. military and its push to integrate superheroes into warfare mirrors real-world defense contractors like Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and Raytheon, which profit from government contracts and military-industrial lobbying.The development and secretive distribution of Compound V reflects practices seen in major pharmaceutical companies such as Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson, especially in relation to experimentation and ethical concerns.Vought’s manipulation of news media and public perception is similar to News Corporation (Fox News) and other media conglomerates that control narratives and political discourse.The company’s approach to manufacturing superhero personas and controlling their public image is reminiscent of the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment), which creates and markets larger-than-life wrestling characters while maintaining a tightly controlled narrative.The corporate branding and nationalist messaging around Homelander parallel elements of Donald Trump’s image and the Trump Organization, particularly in the cultivation of a strongman persona, media manipulation, and right-wing political alignment.Vought’s business practices, cover-ups, and political influence resemble those of private military firms like Blackwater (now Academi), known for their involvement in warfare and government contracts.Vought International has many similarities with Veidt Enterprises from the original Watchmen miniseries, as both are international corporate conglomerates with a monopolistic hold on consumer products and mass media. They also coexist within superhero universes where they profit off the names and likenesses of supes through merchandising and

For the Dynamite version of Vought, see Vought-American/Comics. “Today's heroes. Tomorrow's future.―Vought's official slogan[1]”Vought International, also known as simply Vought, and formerly known as Vought-American, is an American multi-billion[2] dollar superhero entertainment conglomerate, currently led by Homelander and Sister Sage. The company is famous for founding The Seven and managing the global population of licensed Supes, as well as several other businesses industries including but not limited to TV networks, sports drink companies, music apps and fast-food chains. They are the overarching antagonists of the TV series and its spin-offs, being an extremely corrupt corporation with aims for world domination.History[]“A world without crime, with liberty and justice for all, that's within our reach, thanks to the 200+ superheroes in the Vought family. We see a bright future ahead, where there is a Vought hero in every town.”Foundation[]Vought American was founded after WW2 by Frederick Vought, a Nazi scientist whom Adolf Hitler himself appointed as the chief physician at the Dachau concentration camp in 1939 where he would perform unethical experimentation on human test subjects in order to develop Compound V to enhance human beings into what are now known as "Supes". Vought eventually made the first successful dose of Compound V and with that used dosage of V created the first known superhero, his own wife, Klara Risinger, however, despite his success, Vought would never use Compound V to help the Nazi Party, since he realized that their defeat was certain. He soon defected from Nazi Germany and the Allied forces smuggled him and his wife to the US, where he would give his newly developed serum to military soldiers to increase their odds against the Nazis (with Soldier Boy being the most notable example).[4] This prompted President Franklin Roosevelt to pardon him in 1944 and allow him to continue his research on Compound V, a decision that would eventually end with Vought founding is own corporation to further the development of supes as an advanced race of living weapons.After Vought[]At some point after Frederick's death, Stan Edgar would take over as CEO and continue the company's unethical practices. Compound V, by this point, is shrouded from the public, who are led to believe that supes are chosen by God. In actual reality however, the serum was shipped across the US to hospitals by Samaritan's Embrace under the guise of medical supplies.Vought's goal has always been to capitalize on supes, cutting deals with independent cities and states for protection; Madelyn Stillwell tried to offer Nubian Prince at a price of $300 million a year to the Mayor of Baltimore, however the deal was tanked by Homelander.[3] Another of the company's objectives was to get superheroes integrated into the military as

As the most powerful company in America.Starlighters: An anti-Vought/Homelander countermovement consisting of Starlight's progressive fans. Both before and after taking over America, Homelander began a personal crusade turned government-sponsored crackdown against the Starlighters, declaring them an existential threat to the whole nation.Antifa: A decentralized, anti-fascist political movement of different, loosely affiliated left-wing groups collectively opposed to various forms of discrimination, oppression and authoritarianism. Prior to taking over the country, Homelander tried to use Ryan to create a propaganda PSA to convince children to report their families, teachers and friends to the corporate-controlled authorities if they were supposedly a part of Antifa, as part of his efforts to get rid of any opposition to his rule.[15]Former Enemies[]Chemical Liberation Front: An eco-terrorist group who took a bunch of Cruz Chemical employees' hostage in an effort to stop the chemical plant from polluting their neighborhood with deadly substances. After the death of all the hostage takers that were present in the chemical plant, at the hands of Homelander, the group presumably does not exist anymore.[16]Soviet Union: During the Cold War, Vought's Payback and the CIA-backed Contras took part in a joint-covert mission codenamed: Operation Charly in Nicaragua. The mission ended in failure when the Soviet Spetsnaz and their Sandinistra allies raided the Contra's camp and massacred most of its inhabitants before capturing Soldier Boy who had been incapacitated by his fellow teammates after striking a deal with Stan Edgar to get rid of him. Vought also participated in America's propaganda efforts against the Soviets, producing multiple anti-communist films and even participating in congressional hearings during the Red Scare, with Soldier Boy testifying before the House Un-American Activities Committee against numerous purported communists within the US government.Nazi Germany: Despite Frederick Vought originating from the country, Vought-American's first superheroes would (allegedly) fight against the German Wehrmacht in the last stages of World War II.Walter Milk & Associates: After Soldier Boy accidentally killed Marvin's grandfather, his father would spend years of his life fighting Vought to get proper justice. He believed that no one was above the law, and he would try to use his knowledge as a lawyer to defeat Vought at the court of law. However, he failed at achieving his goal and died at 55.Trivia[]There are several differences between the series version of Vought and its comic counterpart.The comic version of Vought was known as Vought-American, whereas the show version is known as Vought International. As a nod to the comics, its revealed in flashbacks that the company was originally called Vought-American; the name was changed at some point between 1984 and the present, likely after the Cold War ended.In the comics Vought was an incompetent arms company that hastily rebranded as a

Death: A canned-water company. The Deep has done two commercials for the company, one where he advertises the product as an eco-friendly replacement for plastic water bottles (since aluminum cans are more recyclable and are less likely to end up in the oceans) and another one where he states that Liquid Death's canned-water is a preferable alternative to soda as it contains less sugar.Enemies[]Vought has acquired a large number of enemies and rivals over time, among them:Shining Light Liberation Army: A Philippines-based far-left terrorist organization that started committing attacks against the infrastructure and personnel of both Vought and the US government after the company's superheroes were given congressional approval to operate overseas as private contractors serving in the military and took part in killing of members and supporters of recognized terrorist groups, even going as far as the wholesale slaughtering of their entire families/innocent home villages in response to the group's actions, that had been supplied with Compound V by Homelander and A-Train. Their New York City clandestine activities/operations would later be shut down after its terrorist cell was effectively wiped out by The Boys members; Kimiko and Hughie.Bremer and Bremmer Law Firm (B&B Law Firm): A law firm that has a history of filing lawsuits against Vought International on behalf of it's victims.Federal Bureau of Superhuman Affairs (FBSA): A government agency dedicated to dealing with supes who have committed crimes. However, there mission and purpose were undermined by the fact that it's director, Victoria Neuman, was secretly a Supe double agent and adopted daughter of Vought's CEO Stan Edgar.Russian Federation: After the involvement of American superheroes in the Cold War, anti-supe sentiment became very strong in Russia. Unlike the Americans, most Russians see supes in a negative way to the point that graffiti depicting supes as monsters is quite common in the country. Due to Russian hatred of superheroes, Vought products are also considered contraband, however the Russian media is still allowed to talk about superhero related topics. Besides that, the Russian military is also secretly studying Compound V, most likely so that they can gain an advantage over the USA in case of another war.CIA: America's premier foreign intelligence service, they had begun and undertook a dedicated effort to covertly weaken, reduce and/or otherwise eliminate Vought's influence on U.S politics through sabotage and other means like attempted assassination after it was revealed and brought to their attention that the V.P candidate was the head-popping Supe secretly working for Homelander.The Boys: A team of vigilantes under the CIA with the mission of bringing down Vought International and The Seven.Walt Disney Company: A multi-billion-dollar mass media and entertainment corporation and one of the few remaining rivals that threatens Vought's position
