I want to give this book 5 stars, but I can't. If I could, I'd give 4 and 3/4 stars. It's an awesome book, but it falls short of 5 stars. The artist, John Romita jr., whom I love has some awkward times where things look too cartoonish or out of place. And the secret origin of one of the characters was kind of a letdown for me. I didn't find the language as shocking as everyone said, but it had some great moments that made me laugh. Bottom line, it's an awesome book just a hair away from perfection. But it is a must-have for any serious graphic novel lover. After finishing it, I can't wait to see the movie, or to read the sequel coming out this year.
Exactly what I wanted thx!

The Kick Ass hard cover collection is a must have for any/all comic collectors! Vivid and graphic cover to cover, great story and flawless style. The quality of the book itself i extremely good glossy pages and perfect color. A must buy comic!
The first storyarc in the Kick Ass universe is 8 issues long. Every book in it is an absolute joy to read. They tell the story of a boy who decides to dress up and become a real life superhero. He kicks some ass, and gets his ass kicked... makes friends and enemies along the way... and definitely isn't your average superhero!
