Premise/Story:
The Boondock Saints are a group of Irish-American vigilantes on a mission to kill every criminal in Boston. The Saints are catholic and bless the bodies of those they kill. A common trademark of the Saints is to place two coins on the eyes of a dead victim.
Members:
- Connor McManus - Eldest brother, leader and strategist for the saints.
- Murphy McManus - Younger Brother, often rebellious, yet still doting to his brother, friends, and father.
- Noah McManus (Il Duce) - Il Duce was a ruthless, though moralistic killer for hire specializing in the murder of rogue mafia members. He is now a vigilante.
- David Della Rocco - A former low ranking member of the Boston mafia, Rocco grew to hate his employers, and joined the saints to become a vigilante.
- Romeo - A former prizefighter, Romeo knew of the saints for years, and was only too happy to join them. He is borderline psychotic.
