Kick-Ass TPB Library Rebrands and Lands At Image
Another shoe has dropped with the post-Netflix Millar situation. Just a bit ago, we told you about the new Hit Girl series landing at Image. Now we’re informed that the original Kick-Ass series of TPBs are moving to Image under the title KICK-ASS: THE DAVE LIZEWSKI YEARS. Probably to better differentiate from the new series of Kick-Ass. And so, […]
Hit-Girl is coming back in a new ongoing from Millar, Kevin Smith and pals
I think you could argue that in some ways it was the image of Chloe Moretz as Hit-Girl in the 2010 Kick-Ass movie that set off the current era of fighting heroines in film. While Hollywood had shied away from female superheroes as much more than cheesecakey stuff, a little girl who slashed throats as […]

Stuntmen on location to rig stunts for a “Kick-Ass 2” party save a distraught woman from jumping. Police were called about 2:40 p.m, but before they arrived the stunt men grabbed some harness rigging and scaled a security fence at the 33-story high-rise. They talked to a security officer who told them the woman was […]
Fight! Jim Carrey vs Mark Millar over Kick-Ass 2 gun violence
The fight will be gentlemanly fisticuffs only. Carrey—who has been coming out pretty strongly for gun control in recent months—portrays Colonel Stars and Stripes in the KICK-ASS 2 film coming out in August. (BTW, we get a strong Sergeant Hatred vibe from this, image; do you?) But in two weekend tweets, Carrey distanced himself from […]
