REVIEW:
The toughest 12 year old is back and to be honest I can’t believe how much fun I got out of this title when it landed. As usual Millar’s dark humour comes through and with ironic death sequences, wonderful play on words with a second film coming to a big screen near you, really does give you something to have a lot of fun with.
Add to this wonderful illustrations to accompany this kickass story and all round it’s a book that is a whole lot of fun setting itself up nicely to be continued. All round a great read and one that I’ll be delving into again in the near future.

REVIEW:
If you’re looking for something that blends superheroes with Oceans 11 then you really have to get this cracking Mark Millar Graphic novel that waves an intricate plotline alongside cracking artwork in a high octane thrill ride to obtain millions of dollars from a retired super villain. Its got everything you’d want from some serious kickass heroes through to double dealing malicious thoughts that really keep you guessing throughout as to whom is playing who.
Back that up with great storytelling with solid prose and a cast of characters that were fun to be around which all round made this a real joy to read.
