The members of The Seven often enjoy plenty of publicity thanks to the marketing efforts of Vought International. However, they aren't the only Supes (Super-powered individuals) roaming around Earth. The Supes came into existence because of a Vought experiment years ago in which a couple of children were injected with Compound V.
So far, the Supes in The Seven have already proven to be incredibly strong, with Homelander being the most powerful of them all. Since he is modeled after Superman, most of his powers are like those of the Man Of Steel. Some of the Supes lucky or not lucky enough to be in The Seven have proven to be quite strong too
12 Doppelganger
It's a shame that Doppelganger doesn't have a detailed spy storyline. He can turn into anyone he pleases. Madelyn Stillwell tasks him with blackmailing Senator Calhoun and he does so by changing into a young woman and sleeping with him before changing back to a man to portray the senator as gay.
Doppelganger can't do anything else apart from shapeshifting and that makes him one of the weakest Supes. He angers Homelander when he shapeshifts to him and is unable to to defend himself when The Seven leader grabs his neck and snaps it.
11 Eagle The Archer
Eagle is a clear parody of DC's Green Arrow and Marvel's Hawkeye. The only unique thing he has is his telescopic eyesight. This has enabled him to have great proficiency in archery.
As one of the recruiters of the Church Of The Collective, he helps The Deep find inner peace again after being booted from The Seven. He later leaves the cult after he is instructed to isolate his mother from his life. This sets him as a possible ally for The Boys in the coming season.
10 Gecko
Starlight's childhood friend Gecko becomes a Supe after he ingests Compound V while working in the Vought labs. Starlight blackmails him into stealing a sample of Compound V, something which upsets him because he thought they were still friends.
Just as a gecko grows back its tail, the Super can regrow any part of his body as soon as it's severed. He is completely immune to pain too and barely reacts when his arm gets chopped off.
9 Ezekiel
Ezekiel is one of the few characters in the show that doesn't exist in the comics. A preacher and organizer of the Capes for Christ convention, Ezekiel keeps denouncing homosexuality though he is despite being gay himself. Hughie blackmails him with compromising photos, forcing him to reveal the location of a Compound V shipment.
The preacher has extreme elasticity, able to easily elongate any part of his body like Fantastic Four member Mister Fantastic. Weakness? He can't do that in cold temperatures. Just as rubber breaks when it's frozen, Ezekiel's body part will break if he tries to elongate it at low temperatures.
8 Mesmer
Mesmer is approached by The Boys to help them know more about Kimiko since she doesn't talk. He is said to have achieved celebrity status for being able to read minds. Through physical contact, he can tell what people are thinking as well as what they intend to do. In addition to that, he can access people's memories.
The Supe greedily betrays The Boys by telling Homelander their identities. His weakness? He lacks recuperative abilities. Mesmer takes days to recover when he breaks a wrist. He has no combat skills or strength either. He is easily overpowered by Butcher (who is human) and beaten to death without putting up a fight.
7 Blindspot
Blindspot is briefly considered as a replacement for Translucent in The Seven. He is blind but Compound V has enabled him to develop Superhuman Hearing. Despite not being able to see, he throws daggers and spears with great accuracy. Blindspot's martial arts skills are quite superior too, judging from his training session at the Vought gym.
Unfortunately for Blindspot, Homelander makes him lose his Superhuman Hearing when he bashes his ears in. The moment reveals that Blindspot has Superhuman Durability since a normal person's head would have been completely crushed0.
6 Kenji Miyashiro
Kimiko's brother Kenji gets his powers after the terrorist group—The Shining Light Liberation Army—inject him with Compound V. He thus begins working for them.
Kenji's special ability is Telekinesis. He psychokinetically moves a ship freighter without any effort. He also moves concrete rubble and subdues Homelander. Sadly, he can only channel this ability using his hands, and Aafter Stormfront breaks his wrists, he is unable to do anything. His durability is low too since Stormfront is able to break his neck easily and kill him.
5 Popclaw
A parody of Wolverine, Popclaw has a brief relationship with A-Train before he kills her for telling The Boys about Compound V. Like Wolverine, she is able to extend claws from her wrists and use them as weapons.
Popclaw exhibits great strength during her time on the series, as she can squat-lift 900 pounds/408 Kgs on her shoulders. There is even a weird moment too when she crushes the skull of her landlord, while he performs oral sex on her. The force is too much that his head explodes.
4 Naqib
Naqib is an Arabian man who is given Compound V by Homelander. He is then forced to become a terrorist as part of a bigger plan by Homelander to force the American government into incorporating The Seven into the military.
After ingesting Compund V, Naqib is able to create huge explosions without being injured. He thus attacks an American military base in full view of cameras, getting the attention of the government in the process. Black Noir is then sent to deal with him, showing the world that The Seven can deal with terrorists in a more efficient manner than soldiers.
3 Victoria Neuman
The congressman is eager to take down The Seven after they are exposed for using Compound V. It turns out that she is also a Supe with her own secret agenda. The politician has a special ability—Cranial Explosion Inducement. She can exert pressure on the cerebral tissues of a person's brain, causing his head to explode.
When Butcher convinces retired Vought scientist Jonah Vogelbaum to testify before congress, Neuman causes his head to explode. This unique ability makes Neuman one of the most formidable Supes in the series since she can take down anyone without using any force.
2 Kimiko aka The Female
Kimiko is the only member of The Boys who has powers as opposed to the comics where each member took Compound V. She doesn't talk but she is a very capable fighter, thanks to her previous training and her unique abilities.
Her strength is far superior than that of most living beings. She tears an enemy's face with her bare hands and makes Stormfront bleed, which something even Homelander couldn't achieve with his laser. Her healing ability is impressive too as she quickly recovers from being slashed and stabbed by Black Noir. Her other abilities include superhuman speed and superhuman reflexes.
1 Ryan Butcher
The youngest Supe is also the most powerful. This is because he is Homelander's biological son. Both Butcher and Homelander discover that Becca has been raising Ryan in secret. While Homelander forcefully tries to be a great father to Ryan, Butcher comes off as the better father figure, thanks to his genuine love.
Ryan has a variety of powers. His heat vision is stronger than that of Homelander. He even injures Stormfront's limbs with it and burns her face. He is invulnerable too as he survives a 20-foot drop from the roof as well as a deadly car crash. Even more impressive is his strength as he manages to shove Homelander to the ground, which is something no one else can do.
