Rezensionen für Kick-Ass 1, Band 2

[ennuiprayer · Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen]

Only a few months have passed since the first book's ending. While Dave Lizewski trains to better himself as a superhero, Mindy Macready struggles with a normal life. Inspired by the events in Kick-Ass, several citizens are inspired to don the mask and fight alongside the hero. But a world of superheroes is nothing without a challenging nemesis. Embittered by the slaying of his father, Red Mist organizes his own team by gathering people from all over the world to take down Kick-Ass, Hit-Girl, and their superhero brethren. How far will each side go to live up their comic book fantasies? Who stands in the way? And will Mindy have to break a promise she made in order to save the city?

Maybe it's the fact that Kick Ass 2: The Movie hasn't even begun pre-production - I'm only assuming here - but this book is way better than the first one. Way better than anything I ever read by Mark Millar. If I could, I'd marry this book. That is, if I didn't know there was a third book on its way.

It was brutal and bloody just like the first volume. The movie, meanwhile, had a tighter, meaningful narrative that was more restrained in its action. Both are good.

Riddled with foul language, but inevitably will be of teen interest because of the movies.

A shocking, brutal and worthy continuation of Kick-Ass. If you like the first book, you'll want to get your claws on this as soon as you can.

Catching up with the Millarworld, I picked this up on eBay in hardback. It's another romp that replaces some of the wit and originality of the first series with more ultra-violence and a dash of pathos. It's still bold and silly, though, so don't worry.

I've never been the biggest fan of John Romita Jr.'s square-faced mesomorphs, but he may be the perfect artist for this screwed up, comic book world.

Roll on Kick-Ass 3.

This is a big, bloody mess. I'm not sure if Romita Jr gave up more control of the visuals to Tom Palmer, but the art was actually a little better than the standard, horrible Romita Jr offerings. He still draws people as squat creatures and children with insanely large heads, but really that's not what you read Kick-Ass for now, is it?

So, on to Millar. He seems to be attempting to make each Kick-Ass outing more bloody and disgusting than the last. I think his death of Mother Russia in this one pretty much is the high point (low point?) of the violence so far.

Overall, the story is dumb, but dammit, it has flashes of genius in it and that (and the movies) are the only things that keep me coming back.

It has been awhile since I read the first one so I can't remember exactly how violent it was. For this one I was a little surprised by the level of violence, in particular one act which I thought was a bit gratuitous.
