VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
Written by Mark Millar

From Marvel Comics. It's never been offered in Marvel Previews, only as a line listing in the June 2010 PREVIEWS Order Form. But here now is the sequel to the biggest creator-owned comic of the decade -- the one that spawned the number one hit movie and the worldwide phenomenon--is here! Kick-Ass is back, just as over-the-top as ever! As everybody's favorite psychotic 11-year-old, Hit Girl, trains Kick-Ass to be...well, a bad-ass, Red Mist gathers a team of super-villains to take them down! It's super hero mayhem as only Mark Millar and John Romita Jr. can bring you!

BONUS REVIEW by JOHN ROBINSON

I really enjoyed KICK ASS 1 and even the KICK ASS movie, and I like MARK MILLAR's writing. But honestly, I wasn't looking forward to this book, I'd recently grown weary of Millar's constant use of swearing to try and seem hip or relevant, and the non-stop over the top violence isn't shocking or funny when you've grown to expect it. Amazingly I ended up really enjoying KICK ASS vol. 2 #1 and can't wait for #2 to come out! Millar did not simply repeat himself in this book and I didn't know what to expect with each page turn. Character development, quiet moments and everything! A well rounded fully developed comic lies within! Certainly worth giving a shot!
I give it 9 out of 10 Grahams
