Overview
- On July 14, Vought International’s official X account declared rumors of “Herogasm Files” a “fake news” spoof, denying any superhero orgy or attendee list.
- The post mirrors President Trump’s rhetoric and the real-world Epstein Files controversy by adopting “fake news” language and denial tropes.
- “Herogasm” is an established storyline from Garth Ennis’s comics and Season 3 of The Boys, grounding the stunt in the franchise’s existing lore.
- Fans on X responded with both support and skepticism, including demands to “release the Herogasm Files,” driving high engagement around the parody.
- The Boys, now filming its final season, continues to use immersive viral marketing to blur the lines between its fictional universe and real-world political satire.
