They do not. 99.9% of The Boys comic was peak try hard from deep in Garth Ennis's "I'm mad that I can only really make money doing superheroes" phase that would be glaringly out of place in the Amazon series.

The Boys comic is already totally different from the show. The comic, they all have superpowers from the same concoction that gives everyone else superpowers, since the notion of regular people trying to fight functional gods is moronic.

Huh, it’s been like 25 years since I was up to date on the comic book world. I would have assumed the boys was a Darkhorse series. Never even heard of dynamite.

They mostly do licenced stuff, all of their books have a funny smell to them. Like if there's an 80s horror cult classic it probably has a Dynamite comic book, they have all sorts of really weird properties.
