		<description><![CDATA[Ah, it's that time of year again. The cold snows of Winter are about to thaw, new leaves begin to bud on the trees and the stream of Oscar films are making way for the torrent of big budget blockbusters. First on the list is the heavily-hyped and long-awaited adaptation of the Watchmen graphic novel. A complicated and detailed tale of an alternate history in which superheroes were embraced as bringers of justice, only to gradually become marginalised as dangerous and unregulated menaces to society. Interweaving the story of two generations, the story is an expansive discussion of power and justice that draws in detail on the lives of 8 (yes, eight) heroes.

However, amid the accusations that WATCHMEN will be confusing and complicated, it is worth remembering that the director is Zack Snyder: the man who implified and stylised 300 SPARTANS in to 300, and took the politicized zombie world George Romero and made the glossy 2004 version of DAWN OF THE DEAD.

His work on WATCHMEN is no different. The story is broken down admirably well, and told in a series of sequences that are absorbing, exciting and, perhaps best of all, manageable. Sure it's a plot with several big ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It wouldn’t be far from the truth to call fan-favourite comics writer Mark Millar’s latest miniseries KICK-ASS a phenomenon. From store shelves to movie production in the time it takes most people to earn a week’s holiday, Millar’s story of a young super-hero fan imitating art is well on its way to cult status. Oh, and it’s ultra-violent, foul-mouthed and brimming with character.

So if you wanna know about the source material of one of next year's most anticipated Summer movies, read away..
The Story So Far…

Millar’s story is about Dave Liezewski, a young, un-hip and un-cool riff on the angst-ridden teen made popular by a certain web-slinging Stan Lee creation. The difference here is Millar’s angsty teen occupies a world with entirely different rules to that of the Daily Bugle. Millar’s world is one without super-powers and one where a fight, even a quick skirmish on a sidewalk, can lead to hospitalisation.



KICK-ASS' first three issues are a master-class in simple, effective, high-concept story-telling.
