Garth Ennis, John McCrea, and Darick Robertson bring another tale from The Boys with The Boys, Vol. 5: Herogasm! An evil so profound it threatens all mankind! The mightiest heroes on the planet uniting to defend us all! A secret crisis of such utter finality that a countdown to civil or infinite war seems unavoidable! But have you ever wondered what really happens during Crossovers? The Seven, Payback, Teenage Kix, Fantastico, and every other superhero on Earth team up for an annual event like no other - and where the superheroes go, can a certain "five complications and a dog" be far behind? But as the fun and games begin, it seems our heroes have set their sights on bigger game than usual. Secrets and blood are spilled in equal quantities, as the Vought-American corporation prepares to make their move - and the truth behind a great American tragedy is finally revealed. For those left standing - and unscarred- the world of The Boys will never be the same again. The Boys, Vol. 5: Herogasm collects all six issues of the first-ever The Boys spin-off mini-series, Herogasm, by Garth Ennis and Hitman artist John McCrea, and features all of the covers by The Boys artist and co-creator Darick Robertson!

Story
Well if I didn't this series was over the top before, I definitely did so after this one. With a title like Herogasm, it makes you wonder what's going to happen and it was far crazier than even I thought.
I'm not sure if I'm just starting to get desensitized to the sex and ultraviolence or simply enjoying the story more.
Artwork
Well with how insane this volume was I sometimes found myself looking around me as I was reading to ensure no one was around. It's very well drawn and I guess Darick Robertson has had a lot of practice for this one.
