The Boys season 4 continues to awe fans and even leave them making theories by introducing multiple characters from DC Comics. In episode 6, the show introduced Tek Knight, a character who was featured on Gen V and made a debut in The Boys season 4.
Tek Knight has super senses as powers, making him an iconic character. In the comics, he is eerily similar to Batman since Tek Knight is also a billionaire with access to high-security areas like multiple jails across America.
However, Tek Knight often leans towards dark and villain-like tendencies instead, using his Tek Cave for nefarious activities. However, his most iconic asset is his suit of armor.
The Boys season 4 episode 6 introduces the character but does not depict the armor, leaving it shrouded in mystery. This has left fans to speculate whether the armor will show up later in the season, or whether its fate has been abandoned for good.

Did Tek Knight die in The Boys season 4?
During The Boys season 4 episode 6, Tek Knight was countered by Annie and Kimiko who saved Hughie from him. Hughie was caught on an undercover plan as he disguised himself as Webweaver. But his cover was exposed as he didn't know the proximity of their relationship.
Meanwhile, they later tied Tek Knight up and used him to get information about Sister Sage's plans. They decided to leave him there initially but then Elijah decided that he did not want to be a puppet.
Elijah declared that he despised the deal that Tek Knight had made with Homelander and The Seven. After this, he stabbed Tek Knight and said that it would look like an accident to anyone who saw the body.
Later, Firecracker tells Homelander that Tek Knight has been murdered. This confirms that the character died in episode 6 of The Boys season 4.
The mystery surrounding Tek Knight's powers in The Boys season 4 explained
Tek Knight was a character initially introduced in Gen V. He was featured on The Boys season 4 as the host of a mysterious party that became the center of the episode's conflict. However, Tek Knight does not make it very far into the story, as he is stabbed and murdered by his butler Elijah in the very same episode.
It is revealed that Tek Knight's powers include enhanced vision, smell, taste, hearing, and touch. Essentially, he has super-senses that allow him to prevail.
According to DC lore, Tek Knight is very rich and has control of multiple prisons across America. He is a super detective and also has a 'Tek Cave', meant to be similar to the Bat Cave. He is also seen wearing a suit of armor in the comics.
However, the armor does not make an appearance on the show. This has left fans wondering whether Tek Knight's armor might return later in some capacity. Some fans are still holding out hope:
On the other hand, most fans believe that the chance to depict the armor on screen has ended with Tek Knight's death, and due to budgetary constraints of the show.
Fans can watch the latest episodes of The Boys season 4 streaming on Prime Video.
