After the disappearance of his wife, Becca, Butcher dedicated his life to fighting Vought and its corrupt Supes, especially Homelander. Butcher crossed a line he never imagined he would when he took Temp V, a variant of Compound V that gives you superpowers for 24 hours, so he could take the fight directly to Homelander and Vought. But doing so came with a devastating cost: he now has less than a year to live. Will that be enough time to finish the war that he started?
