Kick-Ass 3 Artwork

CBR interviwed the creator of Kick-Ass, Mark Millar and premiered the John Romita Jr. artwork for the first six pages of the Kick-Ass 3 comic book.

“The whole plan, all along, is that "Kick-Ass" was about a guy growing up. This is a John Hughes movie meets "Kill Bill." It's all about a rite of passage. It's about a kid whose mum has died and he's not really that enchanted with the real world. He's become absorbed in this fantasy world of comics but he's taken it to the next level and gets dressed up as these characters.

And "Kick-Ass 3" is the moment where he says, "Hang on. This is a bit weird." He suddenly thinks, "I love doing good and everything, but I've met this girl and real life is becoming all right." He questions, does he really need to be Kick-Ass anymore?

It's an unusual thing, because you've got a natural ending for a story. And it can end a number of ways without giving anything away. But yes, to answer your question, it's very much the end of a journey that we started in 2008. When I had the first issue out in 2008, I knew what the last scene in this was going to be.”
