Which publisher released The Boys comic issues #7 through #72?

The story behind the answer

Dynamite Entertainment released The Boys comic issues #7 through #72.

The comic began at WildStorm, a DC Comics imprint, with issues #1 through #6. After WildStorm canceled the series, Dynamite Entertainment picked it up and published the remaining main-series issues, from #7 through the conclusion at #72.

The series was written by Garth Ennis and co-created and illustrated by Darick Robertson. Its story follows a covert group confronting superheroes whose public image hides corruption, violence, and corporate control. The comic’s change of publisher did not end the story; instead, Dynamite continued the run through its final issue in 2012.

Dynamite also published related material, including the spin-off mini-series Herogasm, Highland Laddie, and Butcher, Baker, Candlestickmaker. It later released the eight-issue epilogue Dear Becky. Those projects are separate from the main numbering, so the publisher question’s issue range specifically identifies the core series’ Dynamite-era run.

A frequent mix-up is naming WildStorm, which is correct only for issues #1–6. Dark Horse, Image, and WildStorm were not the publisher of issues #7–72.
