So you want to be a Superhero! Mark Millar and John Romita Jr. gave us the answer and it is a violent one and definitely geared at a mature audience. Without revealing too much, this hard cover comic book, has those shocking moments of ultra violence, with some bad language and dark humour. It also uncovers the secret desires of every geek in us, but unfortunately these go wrong. John Romita Jr.’s artwork is as his usual best. Mark Millar’s writing transpires that he is totally enjoying himself weaving this story as much as I had reading it. One asks how the character can keep on going. Can’t wait for the second installment! By the way saw the movie and it kicks ass too! Really worth it!
(9.5/10)
