Many of the characters and scenarios seen in The Boys comics have taken their inspiration from Marvel and DC, with Garth Ennis creating a world where nothing was off the table. This is an element that's been retained in the adaptation of The Boys but also its spin-off, Gen V. The show focusing on young Supes making their way through their education to be Vought's next generation of Supes is something that's explored in the "We Gotta Go Now" comics arc, when Hughie infiltrates the school where the G-Men are being trained by John Godolkin This is a very unsubtle reference to the X-Men and Charles Xavier.
