I stumbled upon the first Kick Ass series (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kick-Ass_(comics)) around the time that the movie was first getting some press. I'm certainly glad that I did - I would have been shocked at the nature of the movie, given that the "real kids trying to be comic characters" usually is light and wholesome - John Romita Jr.'s art also makes it look like a '70's Spider-Man comic.. Kick Ass being bloody and violent was a surprise.
I did like the series and the subsequent movie. I read the first issue of Kick-Ass 2 which is also very good. Not for kids though.
