Warning: The Boys Season 2 spoilers below.

With Season 2, The Boys proved that it's one of the best shows on TV--as well as one of the goriest. If you've ever wondered what it would really look like when Superman directed his "heat vision" someone's way, or what would happen to a whale if a pointy speedboat hit it broadside, full tilt--not that that's a normal thing to wonder about, but still--The Boys is the show for you.

That level of blood and guts doesn't get cobbled together in an afternoon, particularly when heads are popping like bubble wrap in a crowded congressional hearing. To find out just how much work went into those effects and more, we jumped at the opportunity to chat with The Boys associate producer and VFX supervisor Stephan Fleet.
