It's Millar time!

With Kick-Ass 2 hitting cinemas soon, we tread (carefully) into Mark Millar’s controversial and violent Millarworld brand.

IF there were a line of comics that truly exemplifies the cliché that comics are no longer for kids, it’s Mark Millar’s Millarworld, the Scot writer’s very own brand of creator-owned titles, which include the movie-spawning Kick-Ass franchise and Wanted. To say his books are controversial would be an understatement – most of the Millarworld stories feature excessive violence, bad language, and brutal, sadistic and bloodthirsty characters that would make The Punisher seem like a choirboy.
