Summary
"A child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth."
Before Homelander, Vought had Ellie.
A little girl whose ability to form attachments made her a liability.
They never made that mistake again.
Years later, Ellie meets the man who came after her.
The one they raised knowing exactly what love had cost them the first time.
Because Vought didn't fail Homelander.
They built him that way.

Summary
Cecil Stedman's first year as the Director of the GDA has concluded, and he's more stressed than ever. When a reality breach, however, drops a terrified, superpowered child (Homelander) into the forest of Maryland, Cecil expects an invasion, a weapon, or the beginning of another apocalypse. Instead, he finds eight-year-old John in a hospital gown.
Raising a frightened, superpowered child may be the most dangerous thing Cecil has ever attempted.

Summary
Vought scientists built a kill-switch into Homelander with the most state-of-the-art brainwashing techniques ever seen. And the best part? He doesn't even know it. Unfortunately, the files with the activation code were lost over time, leaving an invincible killing machine unchecked and unleashing him on the world. Not even Stan Edgar has the ability to control him.
When Ashley Barrett stumbles across the folder while digitizing classified documents and certainly not snooping, she figures, 'what possible harm could a beige folder do to a god?' She writes it off as pseudoscience while at the same time memorizing the activation phrase 'just in case'.
She never expected to have to use it. Not until now.

Summary
Homelander is beaten to death on live television. The world watches him die...
Or at least, they think they do.
When Ashley Barrett watches this happen on her phone in the safety of the tunnels beneath the White House, she realizes she needs to see him with her own eyes. And when she does, everything falls apart.
---
This is a sort of fix-it for the series finale of The Boys. What if Homelander survived his encounter with Butcher? What if he were forced to live as a human with the horrific injuries inflicted upon him?
What if being beaten to near death on live TV turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to him?
