    Kick-Ass

    Character » Kick-Ass appears in 69 issues.

    Dave Lizewski was an average high school student, who's dream was becoming a hero. Dissatisfied with his underwhelming life, he created an improvised superhero suit and armed himself with a pair of batons. As time went by, he became known as the "greatest superhero of all time", Kick Ass.

    Extremely excited. Anything written by Mark Millar is great in my book.

    I enjoyed this less than I enjoyed the original arc, although the art was really nice. All the characters feel very affected by their movie incarnations. I don't think a full-blown hero team is the next logical step for the book. If anything I'd think Dave would be more disillusioned about team ups after his experience the first time around.

    The art is so much better without all of JRJ's total input. Yes. I am a hater.

    I thought this was a pretty great opening issue for the new arc. It sets things up nicely with the main characters - Kick-Ass himself, Mindy and the little cameo from Red Mist - and the last couple pages give us an idea of what's to come.
     
    As mentioned, the art looks awesome. I'm not a huge JR JR fan, but I'm by no means a hater, but it certainly seems to pop more than the art he did on his own.

    I'm really excited to see where this story goes with a super team in the picture. These people look insane! Mindy's story has taken a real interesting turn. Good conflict there. This along with Walking Dead where my top two picks for the week.

    Of course hit-girl will be back, it's just the generic thing we see all the time, like when B.A. swore not to kill in the A-Team, only to change his mind later.

    It says "taste the awesome" on the cover, that is not the reviewers reaction.

    Ah, the paradox that are women. They hate it if you lie to them, but they never seem to want you to be too honest either. One of the reason I love 'em. That, and a few more "other things". lol
     
    I still haven't seen the movie.

    Can't wait for the last issue to come out right as the movie is about to be released! And the graphic novel 5 years later.

    I think Mark Millar is a pretty good writer who gets way too much credit. I liked the issue, it sets things up pretty good, but people need to manage expectations.

    The issue was meh.  I can't agree on the art sentiment, as this issue felt like a decline over the original series.  Yeah, JRJR is doing Avengers, but it's not just JRJR that is the issue here.  Dean White's colors against that less detailed look from JRJR is kind of...bland.

    But you'll be fine, G-Man, because sometime later, a random  would appear and offer you a way erase everything in exchange of something you love the most, so you can have a brand new day!
