Kick-Ass Compendium

Description

The Kick-Ass Compendium brings the entire original Kick-Ass story back into one massive volume. This is the complete collection of Dave Lizewski's years, comprising all four volumes of the original series created by Mark Millar and John Romita Jr.

Dave Lizewski is an ordinary New York teenager obsessed with superhero comics. One day, he decides to become a superhero himself – donning a costume and heading out onto the city streets to protect the innocent.

However, Dave quickly realizes that the real world is nothing like comics. There are no magical powers here, and every fight can end in real injuries or even death. Nevertheless, Dave has no intention of giving up, and his decision soon draws him into a much more dangerous world than he could have imagined.

The Kick-Ass Compendium collects the entire original story of Kick-Ass: The Dave Lizewski Years – from Dave's first attempt to become a superhero to all his subsequent adventures.
