What's up, Golden Boy?
―Steve to Luke Riordan.[src]

Steve, better known as The Incredible Steve, is a minor character in Season One of the Amazon series Gen V, a spin-off series of The Boys. He is a student at Godolkin University.

Background[]

Steve was born in the early 2000s, and shortly after his birth, his parents accepted Vought's offer to inject him with Compound V, subsequently transforming him into a Supe and granting him superhuman powers and abilities.

Gen V: Season 1[]

"God U."[]

At Godolkin Stadium, Steve greets Luke before their match. The two students then engage in a fight that ends with Luke overpowering and ripping off Steve's arms. Fortunately, Andre and Luke bring back his arms, which reattach onto him. Luke compliments Steve on his performance, and Steve thanks him.

Powers and Abilities[]

Powers[]

  • Superhuman Strength: Steve possesses superhuman strength, which makes him stronger than humans and some Supes. The full extent of his strength is unknown.
  • Superhuman Durability: Steve exhibits a level of resilience that surpasses that of an average human due to his exceptional abilities. He stoically endures a barrage of blows from Golden Boy, seemingly impervious to their impact. This is a remarkable sight in the world of intense sparring sessions. He is subjected to an immense amount of force, even to the point where Golden Boy's might is tearing his arms apart, but despite this, he shows a faint sign of discomfort, a testament to the incredible strength that has been applied to him.
  • Regenerative Healing Factor: Steve exhibits an exceptional ability to quickly regenerate damaged body tissues, enabling him to successfully reattach severed body parts.
  • Superhuman Hearing: Steve possesses superhuman hearing, allowing him to hear better than humans. Like all Supes, he can hear higher frequencies that humans cannot.[1]

Weaknesses[]

Biological[]

  • Brute Force/Limited Durability: Despite being more durable than humans, Steve can still be stunned, knocked unconscious, and killed by extreme force. Golden Boy stuns Steve with a punch, knocking him down and ripping his arms off.
  • High Frequencies: Due to being a Supe, Steve is susceptible to high frequencies. When a high frequency is playing, it can induce immense pain and temporarily neutralize him.
