History Characters / TheBoys2019Other

* InsistentTerminology: Whenever someone falls out of favor with him, they become a "toxic" individual. Eagle's mother was dubbed as such, and when he refused to cut ties with her he too was dubbed "toxic" and [[{{Unperson}} excommunicated]]. Likewise, when The Deep throws a fit with A-Train being reinstated into the Seven instead of him, if he didn't calm down - [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and meet his]] [[OnlyInItForTheMoney monthly payment]] [[BlackmailIsSuchAnUglyWord plan on time]] - he too would be "toxic" and removed.

* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: In the comic, he's an ex-Haliburton executive who took Dan Quayle's place as George Bush Sr's vice president, before finally becoming president. In the show, he's a democrat and a military veteran, [[AdaptationalJobChange serving as secretary of defense]].

* SuperpowerLottery: [[spoiler:While initially presented as having the power to simply explode people's heads, her powers are gradually clarified as being able to sense and physically control blood. Given that her powers are said to be the same as Marie from ''Series/GenV'', it's implied that Victoria can also do what Marie does, including reverse or slow massive blood loss, lower someone's blood pressure, detect anomalies and foreign bodies inside a person's blood, and turn blood into whips and projectiles]].

* BloodyMurder: [[spoiler: Turns out this is her actual SuperPowerLottery with the explosion just being one of its byproducts. She basically has Marie’s abilities with more skill and experience which she demonstrates to Marie herself.]]

* KickTheMoralityPet: When her friend Tony meets up with her, she shows genuine affection towards him, [[spoiler: but kills him after he reveals he wants to expose what Red River did to them, despite feeling bad about it.]]

* LudicrousGibs: [[spoiler: Her powers aren't limited to making just heads explode, as shown by her final meeting with Tony. The latter's various body parts are reduced to pieces when Neuman is deprived of much of her focus before Tony is killed.]]

* SuperpowerLottery: [[spoiler:Her ability to blow up anything with zero ways of tracking it is a game changer, even in a show ''full'' of superheroes. Furthermore, it's revealed that she has the same powers of Marie from ''Series/GenV'', and it's implied that Victoria can do the same things Marie can do (such as reversing or slowing massive blood loss in wounded bystanders, detecting anomalies and foreign bodies inside other people's blood, killing people in a method similar to a cardiac arrest, and adding arrows to her blood-weapon arsena).]]

* AffablyEvil: [[spoiler:Despite being a CorruptPolitician and a superpowered assassin for Vought, Neuman is genuinely friendly towards Hughie before he figures out her identity, often playfully stealing his food and joking around with him. Post-reveal, she's still a MamaBear trying to protect her daughter.]]

* SuperpowerLottery: [[spoiler:Her ability to blow up anything with zero ways of tracking it is a game changer, even in a show ''full'' of superheroes.]]

* AWolfInSheepsClothing: A champion of advocating Supe accountability, congresswoman Victoria Neuman is revealed to [[spoiler:have killed Raynor, Adana, and committed the Vought testimony massacre by way of her concealed [[YourHeadAsplode mind-blowing powers]]]].

* YourHeadAsplode: [[spoiler: She was actually the super with the power to kill other people by making their head explode just by looking at them. She needs to look directly at her target to do this and her eyes apparently blur when she uses her power. Later, in season 3, it's revealed that she's not limited to just the head but [[LudicrousGibs can dispose of an entire body this way]], although based on the short struggle with her victim beforehand, it's implied that this is easier to do with a corpse than a live, fighting target.]]

* AmbiguouslyBrown: She's an olive-skinned woman, although her ethnicity is not stated, and her last name is of German origin (in many cases used by Ashkenazi Jews). The actress is Australian of Italian and Lebanese ancestry.

* SuperpowerLottery: [[spoiler:Her ability to blow up anything is a game changer, even in a show ''full'' of superheroes.]]

* * TheQueenpin: She's the female leader of a Russian gang in New York.

* TheMafiya: She's the leader of a Russian gang in New York.

* AdaptationBackstoryChange: In the comic, he's an ex-Haliburton executive who took Dan Quayle's place as George Bush Sr's vice president, before finally becoming president. In the show, he's a democrat and a military veteran, [[AdaptationJobChange serving as secretary of defense]].

* SparedByTheAdaptation: In the comics, Vic the Veep [[spoiler:ends up decapitated by Homelander, who then sexually assaults his chopped-off head.]]

* Hypocrite: She tries to convince Starlight to work with her so she can protect her from Homelander and help a lot of daughters. [[spoiler: This coming from the same woman who immediately cowed to Homelander when he confronted her and also blew up people in Congress who definitely had children of their own. All to better serve Vought's interests in which many innocent people died because of their machinations. It is clear she doesn't really care what she is saying and just wants Starlight as a pawn for her plans.]]

* SparedInTheAdaptation: In the comics, Vic the Veep [[spoiler:ends up decapitated by Homelander, who then sexually assaults his chopped-off head.]]

* CreatorCameo: Seth Rogen makes a OncePerSeason appearance as himself.

[[/folder]]

* RedemptionFailure: Her efforts in season 2 to make up for what she did to Annie make things much worse. She talks with Stormfront in an attempt to find answers on how to reconcile with her daughter, which made Stormfront implicitly threaten her to get Annie in line, [[spoiler:Then her attempts to terminate Annie's contract with Vought to get her some time off backfire when Vought takes the opportunity to capture and imprison them both]]. Only then does she get the seriousness of the situation, [[spoiler:agreeing to go into hiding with her cousin and giving a new cross to Annie as an ApologyGift for messing up her life]].

* BerserkButton: Don't mess with her daddy [[spoiler: Edgar]]. She was fine cooperating with Alastair until he mentioned his plans to put the screws on Edgar, at which point all bets were off.

* CoDragons: While Black Noir handles missions, Victoria is Edgar's most trusted political associate.
* CompositeCharacter: She's adapted from Vic the Veep but takes elements from the comic's version of Little Nina. She's involved in an internal coup with her nation's government and is planning on using Compound V to detonate people's heads to meet her faction's goal. She differs by being a Supe instead of applying laced Compound V onto others, and she's taking control of the U.S. government as opposed to Russia's.

** She shows great loyalty to her adoptive father Edgar and almost all her actions seem to be in service of his goals. [[spoiler:Unfortunately for him, she loves her daughter more. She's still clearly broken up about having to betray him, though.]]
** She seemed genuinely remorseful over having to kill her childhood friend Tony.

* TheManIsStickingItToTheMan: She's rallying most of her support thanks to her constant condemnation of Vought and their operations, one of her points being about the damage that Compound V and Supes cause. Unbeknownst to everyone but Edgar, she herself is a Supe and uses her powers to further his agenda.
* TheMole: Her role is controlled opposition of Vought to behalf of Edgar.

* WalkingSpoiler: Her identity as [[spoiler:the head exploder makes her one]].

* EvilIsPetty: She frequently stole Hughie's food when he was working with her. However, the two times she's shown actually doing it, it's more playful teasing than anything actually malicious.
