Crashing through plate glass unscathed? Child’s play. Jumping over moving cars? Whatevs. When Hit-Girl is your mentor, you’d better keep up. Kick-Ass is taking lessons in Advanced Bad Assery from Mindy McCready, and in return, he’s teaching her to survive middle school. The question is, can she dispatch the Mean Girls without severing any arteries? Meanwhile, Red Mist gets serious about making his mark in the world of super crime.

@kingshnake after a while after it, I think. So, I gues this is kinda Kick-Ass 3.

this is good different funny but good.
and romita senior was a great artist very constant but jr does do good work when the mood or the subject takes him.
this i believe is based in the gap between kickass1 and kickass2.

john romita jr was a good artist when he drawing daredevil & the uncanny x-men in 80s/90s,he has gone downhill quite abit i think the last thing his drawn that i thought was good was world war hulk.

First, I want to see this Dredd movie but this ad started playing even after I x-ed it out. That shit really f*cking pisses me off. Now I have to turn off what I'm listening to until this shit ends. And having it start every time I click back to the page while I'm trying to read the preview pages is especially f*cking annoying. I know that ads are necessary to fund this site, but ones that are this intrusive are a real pain in the ass.

Now as to the story here, I agree with Chiles. I hope that some of this is incorporated in the new Kick Ass movie. Some truly funny stuff.
