Dave Lizewski is a cop

Dave Lizewski is a cop.
Hit-Girl is out of the country.

Someone needs to kick ass.

Kick-Ass: The New Girl #1

And here we go...

Off to a good start

kick-ass? more like ass-kick hurr hurr

thanks op for story timing this.

...

Another Kick-Ass story? Oh god, why can't Millar and Romita Jr just leave it be. Thank you btw, OP.

Nah, Ass-Kick is still mooching off of Big Daddy's fortune.

And no problem.

My bet?
Millar trying to revive the brand after the movies fizzled off.

...

Sounds horrible

This is way more polished than I was expecting.
It's a nice feeling.

As long as it's still fucking horrible to be a vigilante, I'm cool with it.

...

...

for some reason i didn't think JrJr was drawing this

Hahah, holy shit.
This motherfucker.

>Dave Lizewski is a cop.
Huh, I never finished Kick-Ass past the original but I'm surprised he didn't wind up dead

Probably just the first arc.
I don't see him or Millar sticking around after that, despite claims to the contrary.

He's already fobbed off the Hit-Girl series to Kevin Smith for the second arc.

There were so many death flags it was ridiculous.

I agree, also thanks for the storytime

Isn't Mark Hamill writing one of these books?

...

...

...

Oh come on, even Dave had the excuse of being a near-psychopath.

How's this gonna make money?

Not that I've heard of.

WE WUZ ass

Dear lord the "credits" portion of Kick-Ass 3 was embarrassing to read through.

...

>come wipe my butt

Haha! That's kind of odd, but cute.

I liked the credits.
The series was so fucking insane - it felt oddly fitting.

>How's this gonna make money?

If you don't buy this book, then you're a cis-white Trump loving Nazi Russian collaborating North Korea hating racist homophobe 1% psycho!

...

...

given that this is miller,. shes gonna die a gory death next page isnt she

...

That would be racist, user. Millar is out to chase some of that Black Panter/Nu-Star Wars/Pacific Rim 2 money

...

Nice. Thank you for the story time.

...

Alright, I like this conceit. She's just straight up Blue-Morpho-ing this shit.

I hope it stays this way and she doesn't have to become real heroic immediately.

Hit-Girl in Colombia #1 is next week

YAAS ASS!!!

Millar is releasing re-edited tpbs of the original series because he kept changing shit for SYNERGY and so these will smooth out the retcons

yeah this twist actually has be kinda interested beyond issue 1. kick ass as robin hood is a pretty solid start

See you next week and then next month.

Let's see where this goes.

He should just focus on Jupiter for now, the last part of the saga needs to start.

He says it won't start until 2019.
I figure it'll last long, especially if it's Hitch this time around like I guess.

What a piece of shit, might be understandable if it were just the two of them but with kids it’s just selfish.

>SYNERGY

how funny is Millar trying to get Tessa Thompson for the movie already

Yeah, that's probably the only reason he did this.
One of his properties is dead?

Make it a legacy so they have reason to do another movie.

She is army, so it isn’t too hamfisted.

>adulterer husband is also a numale soyboy antifa
It's so dense

he just needs to get the director of the first kick-ass movie back, thats what made it great, the second movie sucked cause of the director change and the 2nd guy basically adding new stuff while not editing the stuff from the comic that doesnt work on film, the first director was great at using the story of kick-ass as a blue print and making a version that worked on screen with movie audiences.

I'll agree that the first movie was better for audience, but outside of the stupid Hit-Girl subplot - the second movie was so much better as a Kick-Ass movie.

What better way to reignite the brand, than with a completely unmarketable protagonist.

>strong Black single mother who don't need no man
>unmarketable
lad

Epin, simply epin.

Yeah, wasn't there even a hospital bed with his name slapped on it or something? I'm shocked he isn't dead

>dat soyboy

I'm liking this series already.

Marketable to single black mothers who don't go to the movies anyway because they're stuck working 3 jobs to pay the bills or simply sitting at home collecting welfare checks.

Me Too

Thanks Dave! You're my favorite of the namefags.

At least the meta commentary is worth it

damn
i might pick up this after all

Thanks for the storytime!
This was along the lines of what I expected, so I don't really have much to say. I didn't account for the Robin Hood archetype, but it is pretty reasonable. So far it's just okay; less edgy than the original. I hope it gets more brutal soon though.

>Thinking Millar of all people is SJW
THE CROW WAS SUCKING DICK FOR A REASON

>I hope it gets more brutal soon though.

Me too. I mean, it just ain't Kick-Ass if it's easy.

welp that was better than expected

first time I didn't hate le frizzy haired black girl protagonist

Can someone explain to me why normies like this series so much?
The comic is apparently used in my college's writing course along with Watchmen and A Contract with God.

I have absolutely no idea.
I like it because it can be entertaining cape-sploitation. Except for KA2. Which took itself too seriously.

>literally the series the series whose most noticeable feature was a 10 year old, who was trained by a fucking comic book nerd, kicking adults as.
>mad when a women who was at least in the military do it
When did it all go to shit?

>women in army
wew

>How's this gonna make money?
She's probably planning on stealing dirty money from drug dealers.

>Women in combat roles.

Gotta say, the art is DEFINITELY an improvement over the original series.

Love the fonts.
Does anybody know which fonts they used for this comic?

Weird, she kind of looks like a black female version of Dave. Face, build and all.
It's kind of creepy.

How did she even get the suit? Didn't Hit-girl gave it to some random kid?

Dave bought the suit online.
I figure the manufacturer is still in business given how much it got fucked up.

That ain't what sunport looks like at all. It has way more native American themes and wood on the inside. Not to mention jrjr didn't add the mountains behind it and completely made up what the building looks like from the outside. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>Silencer: dark-skinned single mom anti-hero
>new Kick-ass: dark-skinned single mom anti-hero
Is this JRJR's fetish or a new fad?

New Kick-Ass is cute, CUTE.

EVERY TIME

She is a dark skinned woman so she would never be an incompetent hero just like the real Kick Ass, but at least she could have been a normal person instead of a soldier, this story betrays the spirit of the original kick ass story.

She shouldn't have married if she wanted go the collage.

>WHIRRRR

Sheeeet.

I liked it. Some one who knows the shit is taking the shit down. Didn't think this was going to be good, but there is great start. Now if only she became the real Punisher.

I hope this guy gets his testicles removed with a rusty knife.
What a piece of shit character.

>the crime lords find out her identity
>decide to get leverage on her
>kidnap and threaten this piece of shit

Please let this happen. It'd be amazing.

Oh yes!

And then her reaction will be the equivalent of someone saying "meh"

>all the fucking secondaries ITT upset about a black girl
Casuals need to GTFO

I would cum buckets for another Millar/Hitch story

Yeah, cause Hit-Girl was so incompetent.

Hit-Girl wasn't Kick-Ass

Those are the dumb wannabe-Sup Forums tourists from Sup Forums who never read the comic in the first place

That doesn't really make much sense.
Why would she pick up the same suit as Dave? He's famous. Kick-Ass was this national phenomenon/viral celebrity that inspired others to do the same in the previous series.

If people saw her with the Kick-Ass costume then they would think she was an impersonator trying to cash in his fame, not a deranged comic fan.

If he's still sticking in tone with the other minis then I almost expect it to happen.

Kind of weird that the Hit-Girl mini is now part of "The Dave Lizewski Years". I mean technically it's true, but still.

Yeah, honestly the HG mini was a proper sequel and everything, but the banner of "The Dave Lizewski Years" is just clunky.

A black woman in the military doing anything besides crying racism and getting hair nails done.

What a joke

>trusting a white man
Not even once, Patience.
