Summary
The Boys is a comic book franchise that includes a television series adaptation. It follows a CIA-based black ops vigilante team known as "the Boys" and their campaign to take down the world's corrupt "superheroes" who, despite their great public image, are secretly the most heinous villains of all.
Power of the Verse
The characters in the comic series are currently determined as Small Building level (Homelander, Billy Butcher, and likely other supes and The Boys members).
The characters in the television series are generally stronger than their comic counterparts. The Seven's and The Boys' general tiers are currently determined as Street level to Small Building level, possibly Building level, with the god tiers such as Homelander and Soldier Boy reaching Large Building level.

Notes:
- The human members of The Boys scale to 9-B from this calc, and so do comparable and far stronger supes.
- The 9-As like Kimiko and Annie scale from hurting Stormfront, who is implied to be able to survive an RPG shot.
- This characters also have a "possibly 8-C" rating, scaling from Lamplighter vaporizing a hole in a metal door.
- The High 8-Cs such as Homelander and Soldier Boy scales from above the power of this explosion.
Speed
- Homelander outspeeds an explosion - Mach 10.28-18.2 (Hypersonic+)
- Stormfront's flight speed - Mach 1.327 (Supersonic)
- A-Train's Speed (With an unknown amount of Compound V) - 371 m/s (Transonic)
- Shockwave's Speed - 342 m/s (Transonic)
- Post-Heart Attack A-Train speed - Mach 0.35 - (Subsonic)
- Starlight's flight speed - 78.46 m/s (Subsonic)
- The fastest characters such as Homelander and those that can keep up with him scale to being faster than this explosion.
- Nobody (so far) scales to A-Train's peak speed showings, as he is faster than virtually everyone besides the god-tiers like Homelander.
- The Superhuman speed ratings for most supes come from Black Noir, who was stated to be faster than a car, and Queen Maeve, who can run on walls
