Starlight aka Annie January is the secondary main character of the Amazon series "The Boys". She's a member of The Seven, a group of exploited superheroes. She was briefly excommunicated from the group after she was discovered to be a mole and ally of "The Boys". "The Boys" is set in a universe where superpowered individuals are recognized as heroes by the general public, and work for the powerful corporation Vought International, which markets and monetizes them. Outside of their heroic personas, most are arrogant and corrupt. The series primarily focuses on two groups: the Seven, Vought's premier superhero team, and the Boys, vigilantes looking to bring down Vought and its corrupt superheroes. Annie January is as down-to-earth and sincere as they come. She's the wholesome girl next door, with superpowers. As Starlight, "The Defender of Des Moines", all she's ever wanted to do is save the world, and while a lot of people say that as a corny catchphrase, she actually means it. So when she's selected to join The Seven, it's every dream she's ever had come true. However that dream becomes her worst nightmare when this fresh-faced Midwesterner arrives in New York, and learns that the old adage is true: Never meet your heroes.
