“Kick-Ass” By Mark Millar Review

The greatest super hero story of all time is finally here! Acclaimed writer Mark Millar (“Wanted”) and award-winning artist John Romita Jr. (“Amazing Spider-Man”) unite for one of 21st century’s most outrageous and acclaimed series! Dave Lizewski is just an ordinary American teenager. He has a MySpace page, he loves comic books, and he is unable to find a girlfriend. Then an idea hits him: why not become a real life super hero? Soon, his life will never be the same again. Soon to be a major motion picture directed by Matthew Vaughn and Jane Goldman, “Kick-Ass” starts where other super hero stories draw the line, taking comic book realism to a whole new level! Warning: This title is for adults only!

To be fully honest I was never a fan of “kick-ass” neither this comics nor the movie. At the same time I haven’t read many comics but this has to be the worst comics I read so far.

The plot of this book is intriguing to say at least. A teen without any fighting skills decides to dress in mask and Halloween costume and start acting like a superhero at night because he is bored.

In my opinion the plot was very weak, and there were some logic holes like how will a teenager without any fighting skills save people ? The proper answer to this question is that he will not save anyone but rather get killed himself. 

The characters are pretty weak as well. But this is a comic book so we don’t get to know them in the same level as we do while reading a book.

This book is very boring and uninteresting. However the art in a way makes up for it. But not so much as to make me give this comic a higher rating.

This comics is very hollow to read, because other than the good drawings there isn’t anything good to say about this one.

I Give This Book 1 / 5
