The Boys Creator Eric Kripke Defends Decision To Kill [Spoiler] In Series Finale

Summary: In the series finale of "The Boys," fans were sad to see Billy Butcher's adorable bulldog, Terror, pass away. Creator Eric Kripke explained that the dog's death was a major turning point. Terror represented Butcher's last bit of humanity. When the dog died, Butcher's humanity died too, sending him on a warpath.

Luckily, the show gave Terror a peaceful death from old age and a medical condition requiring daily pills. Fans were relieved he didn't have a violent end like he did in the comic books, especially in a show famous for exploding heads and tentacles!
