 Hit-Girl #1 (2012) $4.99 Quantity
VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
(W) Mark Millar (A/CA) John Romita From Marvel Comics. Hit-Girl spins off into her own blood-soaked series by the sales-busting creative team of Mark Millar and John Romita Jr. This story takes place between Kick-Ass Volumes 1 and 2 as Mindy McCready tries to settle into life as a regular school-girl, but wants nothing more than to be dispensing hot justice to the scum of New York City. Her mother and step-father think she's doing her homework, but in reality she's taken Kick-Ass on as her sidekick and is training him up to punch, shoot and stab ... just like Daddy would have wanted. Date Available: 06/27/2012 BONUS REVIEW by John Robinson  It's another KICK-ASS book, just focusing on HIT-GIRL. Unfortunately I was expecting this comic to pick up right where KICK-ASS 2 left off. It doesn't. This HIT-GIRL mini-series instead takes place between KICK-ASS 1 and KICK-ASS 2. Not necessarily a bad thing, it just threw me off guard. If you've ready either KICK-ASS mini-series then this is just more of the same. Same writer, same artist, same approach. Only thing that felt different was the coloring. Between Tom Palmers ink washes and the color choices, the whole thing comes off as really dark, sometimes muddy. But hey, it's about HIT-GIRL, easily the best character in the whole KICK-ASS Universe so it's still a great read. 8 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
