The latest stretch of The Boys final season is beginning to reveal new players, with one name drawing attention as the story moves deeper into its endgame.

Episodes leading up to the midpoint introduce Bombsight, a figure tied closely to the origins of Compound V and the long-running conflict at the center of the series.

His name first surfaces during discussions about the early version of the serum, often referred to as V1, which both sides are now racing to locate.
