After seeing the movie, I had to read the comic. Kick-Ass is by Mark Millar and John Romita Jr.. Well if you've never read it or seen the movie, the comic is about an average kid who day dreams about super-heroes and fighting crime, but actually takes it to the next level and tries if for himself. After his first encounter, he get severely injured, and then out of nowhere gets hit by a car. After many surgery procedures, he aquired a couple metal plates in his skull and reinforced in other areas. So with this tragedy, comes rebirth, by becoming somewhat immune to pain, allows him to kind of fulfill his dream. On his journey, he meets a rag-tag team of real super-heroes who are trained killers that stop at nothing for justice to put an end to a large crime mob. At the beginning of the climax of the comic, it starts with a major twist, but ends with poetic justice. If you haven't read it but seen the movie, you won't find most of the filler drama, but all straight intense storyline. The art in this comic is awesome. I love how the artist intensifies the action and the intense violence, it really makes it what it is. Id recommend this graphic novel to anyone who enjoyed the movie or is a fan of intense action. I really enjoyed reading it and finished it in one sitting, it was intense and straight to the point, you can't complain. Thanks for reading and please follow the blog.
