How did A-Train die in The Boys TV show?
A-Train was one of the most powerful and dangerous characters when viewers first saw him in Season 1 of the show. By Season 3, however, his heart condition had turned him weak and fragile. The season also portrayed the superhero rebuilding his reputation in Vought and redesigning his suit after being inspired by African-American heritage.
Despite his multiple efforts, he was unable to prevail over his brother Nate, who asked him to confront Blue Hawk - who was assaulting the African-American community. A-Train agreed to this and had called Blue Hawk to apologize, but his immature apology backfired when Hawk started assaulting people, and ended up hurting Nate, causing his paralysis.
A furious A-train then went to Ashley to let her know about the mess Blue Hawk created, pleading her to take some action against him. However, Ashley refused to do so after considering A-Trains' past records.
Filled with rage, A-Train then decided to take the matter into his own hands and avenge his brother's condition. While Soldier Boy is attacking the Herogasm party, A-Train spots Blue Hawk fleeing from the location.
Knowing that Hawk would continue with his crimes if he let him escape, A-Train grabbed his feet and dragged him while he ran at Superhero speed.
Following that, viewers see A-Train holding his chest while his heartbeat spirals out of control. The episode concludes with him lying on the road next to Blue Hawk's mutated body, thereby confirming his death.
