Summary

This volume is issue #7 of the Kick-Ass 2 series, the extended final installment of all seven issues, written by Mark Millar, drawn by John Romita Jr., inked by Tom Palmer, and colored by Dean White and Michael Kelleher. The story picks up from what came before: after their identities are exposed, their training, and the formation of their team, Dave Lizewski (Kick-Ass) and Mindy McCready (Hit-Girl) face a final reckoning with Chris Genovese ("the Motherfucker") and his gang of "toxic mega cunts." The climax of this issue is a large-scale melee in Times Square—Justice Forever and dozens of costumed figures from the villain camp collide head-on, while the NYPD takes on both sides in the name of "stopping a riot," pushing the absurdity and cost of "ordinary people dressing up as superheroes" to its extreme. Another main thread is the life-or-death duel between Hit-Girl and Mother Russia, neither of whom acts on fantasy: one was trained as a warrior from childhood, the other is a professional killer. This issue is known for extreme violence and profanity; several characters are gravely wounded or killed in the conflict, and it closes with a rooftop standoff between Kick-Ass and the Motherfucker that leads into later works.

Editor's review

作为《海扁王2》的最后一话,这一册几乎是“反超级英雄”命题的集中爆发:米勒把几十名穿紧身衣的业余人士和同样荒诞的反派丢进时代广场,让警察不分敌我一并镇压,用最直白的方式回答“现实世界里当超级英雄会怎样”。小约翰·罗米塔的分镜在混战中依然清晰,汤姆·帕尔默的墨线与迪恩·怀特的色彩让动作场面有冲击力;读者普遍给出四星以上的评价,认为这是全系列动作密度最高、情绪最紧绷的一话。需要提醒的是,本书含有大量血腥暴力与粗口,是明确面向成年读者的作品,并不适合青少年或习惯主流超级英雄漫画风格的读者。若你读过前六话,这一册能提供完整的情感与叙事收束;若只是看过电影,请把它当作另一个更粗暴、更不留情面的平行版本。

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • 读过《海扁王》前作、想看到系列收束的读者
  • 喜欢“现实感超级英雄”与反英雄题材的成年读者
  • 能接受高强度暴力与粗口的欧美漫画爱好者
  • 对马克·米勒与小约翰·罗米塔合作感兴趣的读者

Not a good fit for

  • 未成年人及对血腥暴力敏感的读者
  • 期待电影版轻松幽默风格的人
  • 偏好传统英雄成长叙事的读者

Reading tips

  1. 建议先读完《海扁王》第一部与《海扁王2》第1至6话,否则混战中的阵营与人名会显得杂乱。
  2. 留意时代广场混战与超杀女对俄罗斯母亲两条线的交叉剪辑,它对应“幻想”与“现实”的对照主题。
  3. 读完可与电影版《海扁王2》对照,体会漫画在结局处理上的差异。
  4. 书中暴力与语言尺度较大,建议成年人自行判断阅读场合。

FAQ

这一册是整套《海扁王2》吗?
不是。《海扁王2》共7话,本册是第7话,也是加长版终结篇;若想完整阅读,需要从前几话开始。
没看过前作能直接读第7话吗?
可以读,但这一话几乎是连续混战与多条人物线的收束,缺少前文铺垫会难以辨认角色关系,建议至少先读第1至6话。
这是漫威出的吗?
本册由漫威旗下的 Icon 厂牌发行,属于 Millarworld 作品线,与漫威主宇宙(Earth-616)没有剧情关联。
和电影《海扁王2》情节一样吗?
不完全一样。漫画在人物关系与结局处理上与电影存在明显差异,本话的时间广场大战和结尾走向尤其如此,可视为独立版本。
