Review:

'Kick-Ass was always one of the prettiest comics of recent years, and the detail of both the original artwork, and its real-life translation, is stunning.' --Shortlist

'This is one of those rare titles that uses familiar superhero tropes to fresh, novel effects, and with stinging emotion. Grade A.' --Entertainment Weekly

'Wanted [is] the highest-selling creator-owned comic of the decade. Kick-Ass has the potential to surpass that.' --The Independant
