The character was born in Russia as Vasily Vorishikin, a policeman by day and a super by night. In the Prime Video series, Love Sausage arrives in the United States and immediately becomes the subject of tests by Vought International. He receives a brand new stabilized version of Compound V, which gives him a somewhat unusual superpower. After his role in the episode «Herogasm» of the third season of «Guys», Love Wiener only briefly appears in the fourth season.
