Hughie is viewed as a genuinely decent guy by most people who know him, and he has several times risked himself to try to help people who were vulnerable or victimized: his rage over Swingwing callously killing a young man in #10, his attempts to save G-Wiz, and trying to fight the horrifically powerful Malchemical to defend Superduper in #43. Butcher was confused and irritated by the latter incidents, as he had advised him several times that the superhuman population largely does not care about normal people and are not worth his concern. The "Highland Laddie" miniseries had Hughie feeling discontent that, unlike Butcher, he isn't a hard man, but he seems incapable of being one. Annie would later tell him that he is just too nice because of his upbringing, but that this doesn't make him any less of a man.

In season two, Hughie and the Boys, sans Butcher, go underground when they are marked as fugitives as a result of Butcher's alleged murder of Madelyn Stillwell. The Boys must deal with a "head-popper" assassin who kills their victims by telepathically popping their heads, in addition to Stormfront, the newest addition to the Seven, who is secretly a Nazi and the first Supe ever created by Vought. After several failed attempts to instigate Vought and to recruit assistance from the CIA, the latter ending with the assassination of Assistant Director Rayner by the head-popper, Frenchie contacts Butcher due to their need for a "captain". Butcher and Hughie's rift grows. Butcher punches Hughie and threatens him with death after interfering with the capture of the "supervillain" Kenji, Kimkio's younger brother, as it potentially jeopardised his chance of reuniting with Becca (although, Butcher later apologises, to which Hughie attempts to punch him in retaliation); Butcher downplays the Boys' achievement of leaking the existence of Compound V to the media, much to Hughie's chagrin; and Butcher abandons a traumatised Hughie inside a whale that the former drove a boat into. However, their relationship begins to be repaired after MM asserts that Hughie is Butcher's "canary" (whose death would signal when Butcher went too far), and after Hughie learns about the suicide of Butcher's brother Lenny, and his physical resemblance to him. Annie, disillusioned by Vought, decides to secretly help the Boys and meets with Hughie at remote locations to exchange information, occasionally joining them in-person for certain missions. Hughie reaches a breaking point, but later learns to be more assertive and stands up to Butcher more. He rescues Annie with Lamplighter when she is caught and imprisoned by Vought, then later helps Butcher and Becca save her son, Ryan, from Homelander and Stormfront. In the end, Hughie, Annie, and the Boys are exonerated, and Hughie decides to work for congresswoman Victoria Neuman, unaware that she is the head-popper.
In season three, Hughie investigates Neuman's past after discovering she is the head-popper. After discovering that she is in fact the secret adoptive daughter of Vought CEO Stan Edgar, and her anti-Vought policies to be controlled opposition, he reaches out to Butcher to reform the Boys and take down Vought "his way", a decision leading to his own steady disillusionment. After learning Butcher had been taking a temporary version of Compound V dubbed "V-24", Hughie secretly takes some himself while on a mission to Russia to find a superweapon supposedly able to kill Homelander, acquiring the ability to teleport (although losing his clothes with each teleportation) along with a superhuman strength and durability. Hughie then joins Butcher in recruiting the Supe Soldier Boy to their cause after accidentally freeing him from Russian captivity. Hughie alienates himself from Annie, defending his use of V24 by saying that "for once" he wished to be able to save her despite her saying that she does not need saving. Whilst on a mission to kill Soldier Boy's former Payback team-mate Mindstorm, Hughie betrays Soldier Boy after he leaves a mesmerised Butcher for dead, and learning that Soldier Boy's reputation as a war hero was just propaganda; Mindstorm revives Butcher, who Hughie referred to as "family", though is killed before Hughie can deliver on his promise to teleport him to safety. After Butcher punches him unconscious and abandons him in a gas station bathroom to prevent him from taking another potentially fatal dose of V24 (albeit without telling him after learning about the fact from Annie), Hughie comes to realisation that he did not need V24 for strength, relaying to Annie how his father provided for him after his mother left.
Hughie Campbell was a typical, average and regular male, possessing no superpowers or extraordinary abilities, until he was injected with a shot of the enhancement drug Compound V.[8] The dosage applied to Wee Hughie was worth 19 billion dollars. This gives Hughie superhuman levels of strength and durability, the likes of which means he can casually injure and kill regular humans as well as some superhumans. In the show, Hughie gains the power of teleportation, accelerated healing, and superhuman strength after taking a temporary variant of Compound V, however he is only able to teleport himself and not his clothes, leaving him naked when he rematerialises.
Unico (Japanese: ユニコ, Hepburn: Yuniko) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Osamu Tezuka. It was serialized in Sanrio's shōjo manga magazine Ririka [ja] from November 1976 to March 1979 and collected in two volumes. A pilot film for a potential television series was produced in 1979. Two theatrical anime film adaptations were produced by Tezuka Productions and Madhouse in the early 1980s.
While very short-tempered and calls Unico "bonehead", she's very sweet and friendly when it comes to Unico feeling sad. Such as telling him that Cheri left him behind out of love so Unico won't have to suffer the same fate as her parents.
Written by Osamu Tezuka, Unico was serialized in Sanrio's shōjo manga magazine Ririka [ja] (Lyrica) from November 1976 to March 1979. Its chapters were collected in two volumes published by Sanrio.[1] The manga was re-published by Shogakukan in 1984 in a learning magazine for children.[citation needed]
The next creature Unico encounters is Chao (Katy), a black-and-white cat who dreams of becoming a witch. Katy and Unico befriend a lonely old woman, whom Katy mistakenly believes is a witch and will teach her some magic as well as transform her into a human girl. When Unico changes Katy into a girl, Katy at first believes that the old woman did it, until Unico proves it was his doing by changing her back into a cat; but Unico, seeing how selfish Katy has become, refuses to change Katy back to a girl, until one day when Katy saves the old woman from drowning. Katy then becomes entranced by a man posing as a lord ("Danshaku" in Japanese, "Baron de Ghost" in English). He invites her to his castle, gets her drunk and attempts to seduce her. Unico follows, rescuing Katy (with help from Beezle) after transforming into a majestic white winged unicorn and destroying the demonic monster that the "lord" had transformed into. Afterwards, the West Wind comes to take Unico away again, and Katy moves in with the old woman.
