Reading Kick Ass 2 is like reading some of Marvel's big event- they start off promising but ultimately end up being either okay or just crap. The same could be said for Kick Ass 2. Now I do understand that this is a guilty pleasure book overall, but there still needs to be some substance and if you are going to input shock value, have it feel organic instead of having shock value for the sake of shock value. Reading issue 4 of this book was the exact equivalent of seeing the blob eat the wasp in Ultimatum and just like that scene, it felt really unnecessary. It also does not help that issues 4-6 feel like filler and messes up the pace of the issue as well as making Hit-girl's return feel slow. The book also suffers from the dialog which also was a problem in the last book. Kick Ass 2 overall was a disappointment with great ideas that never got fulfilled to make an interesting story. Here is hoping the movie sequel will not make the same mistakes. So fellow viewers, what are your opinions on KA2 if you have read it already???
