Kick Ass Archives

Just reading between the lines. Exactly. Mark Millar has been teasing a "huge announcement" that will make Kick Ass 2 fans "very happy". There seems to be no sign now of a Kick Ass 2 movie Vaughan and Goldman are looking elsewhere, and a new director/production team for a spinoff rather than a sequel would go down better. Chloe[...]

Earlier today, retailers were informed that even though Kick Ass 2 #5 had been featured in October's Marvel Previews, it had somehow not actually made it on to the retailer order form. It's now been added onto Previews Plus, the additional Previews publication, but a number of retailers don't read that and only order from the[...]

The couple were caught when they trued to get the photos developed and a friend wasn't working at the developer that day… …anyway that's what I was reminded of when I picked up the new issue of CLiNT #10 this week, with more pages from Kick Ass 2 yet to be seen in the Marvel printing[...]

It was only weeks ago that I talked to friends of Leandro Fernandez who told me he was still working on Mark Millar's upcoming Hit Girl series. Well, today Mark Millar has announced that Fernandrez no longer drawing the book and that John Romita Jr, artist on Kick Ass and Kick Ass 2 is coming on[...]

We suggested last night this may be coming. Kick Ass 2 #1 was published on October 20th 2010 . Kick Ass 2 #2 was published on March 20th 2011.

Mark Millar and John Romita Jr's sequel to their Marvel comic Kick Ass has been plagued with delay, rather, which Millar has attributed to John Romita Jr having to prioritise company-owned Marvel work as part of his contract with the publisher. However he tweeted today a committment to a Kick Ass 2 schedule in coming months,[...]

Such as this green nippleage on a variant cover for GG Studio's The Bodysnatchers #3. And in Previews UK, some Kick Ass merchandise that's usually censored, and indeed is in the solicitation listings, this time in the visuals… isn't. Dear me Diamond Previews, wash your mouth out with soap and water! Diamond Previews has a reputation amongst[...]

But what does it have in common with Kick Ass, the comic by Mark Millar and John Romita Jr or the movie by Matthew Vaughn and Jane Goldman?

The Reprint TP category is honoring any collection that re-prints a serialized comic series into a trade collection.

But you do get is another  six pages of Kick Ass 2 #2, still yet to be published by Marvel.

That's Mark Millar's big comics news for today, and we had a good guess at it at the weekend too. As to why it is big news, well it is so easy to say "From the co-creator of Watchmen and the co-creator of Wanted/Kick Ass" and, purely in terms of money, that's a massive impact[...]

I also know who I'd have draw it. So, can be see this as a timescale for Joe Quesada stepping down from Marvel? Or an indication that Mark Millar is changing his mind… even if it's in the long term. Oh and in other news, just as he did with Kick Ass/Old Man Logan/Fantastic Four/1985, he's finding[...]

English film blog Hey You Guys was offered the original Kick Ass costume by Universal Studios to play with, and asked Bleeding Cool's Brendon Connelly to help make a film for them Basically the final idea was to create a video that the London version of Kick-Ass, Kick-Arse would make to put on the internet.

Reviews have been universally good, and this relatively-unknown superhero movie made a big splash in today's papers, thanks to the London premiere – and Jane Goldman wearing a very interesting dress.
