I still remember when Kick-Ass first came out in cinemas. I had just given birth and was going through some shit (what's new? lol) when I watched the movie. A movie about a nerd (like me) who wanted to become a superhero in real life (like me) despite knowing that he didn't have any superpowers.
I remember I was the only one in my barkada who actually liked the movie. And I could not stop thinking about it. I proceeded to watch it three more times in the cinema and it became a huge part of my life.
The amazing mastermind behind it was none other than Mark Millar, a genius whose ideas never fail to amaze me. One of his comic books, Super Crooks, takes another idea that he says he believes "has never been done before". In it, supervillains come together for one last heist and it is currently being turned into an anime on Netflix!
