The Compound V ensures he is, yet again, the fastest speedster on Earth, gaining positive publicity for Vought. Vought offers Hughie Campbell compensation for A-Train's mistake, but Hughie is reluctant to take it, turning to Billy Butcher and The Boys for revenge.Ī-Train's abuse continues, however, as his race with Shockwave approaches in " Get Some", he juices up again despite warnings from girlfriend Popclaw. Vought covers the incident up, however, at a press conference by claiming that A-Train was attending to a bank robbery.
This abuse, however, comes at a price when he accidentally kills Robin Ward by running through her. During his time on the team, he abused Compound V to maintain his status as the fastest man alive.Ī-Train has a history of abusing Compound V - a chemical substance engineered by Vought International - to ensure he is the fastest speedster in the world. After leaving Teenage Kix, A-Train attended Godolkin University and upon graduating, he was drafted into the Seven, replacing Mister Marathon. At some point, he became a member of Teenage Kix where he entered into a relationship with another member named Popclaw. Reggie's superhuman speed allowed him to become a celebrity for Vought International under the name A-Train and aspired towards superhero stardom. He eventually became Reggie's personal trainer after his powers began to develop. Because of this, his older brother Nathan raised him. Reggie's father died when he was very young and his mother had to work two jobs. It is implied that he grew up poor during his childhood. Reginald "Reggie" Franklin was born in 1987. 1.5.5 "Here Comes a Candle to Light You to Bed".1.5.3 "The Last Time to Look on This World of Lies".He'll do whatever it takes to remain in The Seven, because he knows it's only a matter of time until a younger, faster challenger takes his place - and that's a problem even the fastest man in the world can't outrun. Underneath the cavalier exterior of a celebrity superhero lies the soul of a mortal athlete, with a deep insecurity about staying at the top.
He inadvertently killed Robin Ward, girlfriend of Hughie Campbell, with his powers while high on Compound V, an action which led to Hughie becoming his archenemy, ultimately leading to him joining The Boys and the events of the show.Ī-Train was let go from The Seven, but has since been asked to rejoin, and is the current "fastest man in the world". He is a speedster who used to be a part of the team known as the Teenage Kix, and is a returning member of The Seven. Reginald "Reggie" Franklin, better known as The A-Train, is a major antagonist in the Amazon series The Boys, serving as the central antagonist of Season 1, and a major antagonist in both Season 2 and Season 3.
