We see a supe experience a dream sequence where he sees the police trying to capture him as puppets as well as himself. He goes on a rampage and murders them all with the blood shoeing as glitter and the gore in cloth puppet form.

It is worth nothing that the puppet scene in itself is not overly violent, however, if the scene was live action, it could be the goriest The Boys universe scene to date.
A character frequently has seizures and eye bleeding. This is a side effect of her Compound V-powers. Later it is revealed that these effects are not directly caused by usage of her powers, rather a power-dampening pill.
