Product Information

Next up was The Ultimates, a new rendering of the Avengers that was to continue building on the success of the Ultimate line. Seeing Romita restrain himself to a grittier, more low-key setting often feels like a square peg being shoved into a round hole.

While he co-created Kick-Ass, I've always questioned whether Romita was the right artist to bring this sort of story to life . The hope was that moving Kick-Ass to a new publisher and introducing a new protagonist would be enough to kick this franchise into gear and allow it to finally start seizing on its potential. All it needs is some time to grow and a fine balance of smart storytelling and exhilarating action to turn it into a success.This New York Times bestseller became a worldwide phenomenon overnight, spending three months at the top spot on the Diamond Direct Market chart and spawning the Kick-Ass movie that opened at No.

Seller has stated it will dispatch the item within 1 working day upon receipt of cleared payment - opens in a new window or tab . The original “Kick-Ass” volumes (and its parallel series, “Hit-Girl”) have always been about ordinary people entering the fray of extreme violence, for reasons that are far more linked to real-world scenarios and themes rather than impossible, supernatural justifications.

Dies zeigt sich besonders durch die erste Konfrontation mit den Straßengangs und die darauf folgende Rehabilitierung von Kickass.
