Dark Horse Comics' Big Screen Triumph

Rating: 9/10 (11 May 2013)

DH Comics are a hugely under-rated brand. They have created amazing big- screen characters such as Hellboy, Scott Pilgrim, and Kick Ass himself. My personal favourite of their creations, Kick Ass, has possibly the best movie adaptation of any comic book character in this utterly brilliant flick.
The writers have stayed very true to the comic book roots of Kick Ass, which I love. Other superheroes are often referenced, jokes are scattered thoughtfully through the script and the action is wonderfully over the top and really 'comic-booky'.
Lovable characters that I can relate to are abundant too. Dave himself is just a regular kid that lives his dreams of being a superhero, and as corny as it is, he doesn't let anyone stand in his way.
As a big comic fan, I feel as though this is the perfect comic book movie. It's a must see for fans or newbies, highly recommended.
