Hughie and the Boys weren’t the only ones that A-Train pissed off in season one. After promising his girlfriend, Popclaw, that they could take their relationship to the public, he backed out at the last minute. One thing led to another and she took a dose of his Compound V and killed her landlord.

Billy and Frenchie used this as leverage to get not only info on the drug from the movie star, but incriminating info on the fastest man on the planet as well: where he makes the Compound V drops, which was the reason he ran through Robin at such speed as he did.

After admitting to her boyfriend that she gave Billy this information, A-Train used his signature speed to inject several needles into her arms, causing an overdose, killing his love and the best thing that ever happened to him.

After, when A-Train is finally alone with Hughie, the two talk and the superhero even has the audacity to blame Robin’s boyfriend for Popclaw's death. While the Boys may have been the ones who got her involved in their war with A-Train, there was no reason for her to die.
