REVIEW: Hit-Girl #1 (of 5)

Or – “She Looks Really Weird On That Cover, Doesn’t She?”

I’ve been a fan of John Romita Jr. since his run on Spider-Man decades ago, and have appreciated Mark Millar’s work since the early 90′s.  When they work together, though, I find my opinion of their work to be all over the place.  Can Hit-Girl get past the novelty value of a foul-mouthed 12 year old murderess?  Your Major Spoilers review awaits!

Big Daddy, Hit Girl Trailer NSFW

We linked to the Hit Girl trailer last week, but now you don’t have to push your way through some age verification B.S. thanks to YouTube.

Be warned though, this is the Red Band trailer, which means there is a lot of cursing, blood, violence, and the C-Word.  This definitely NOT SAFE FOR WORK!  You’ve been warned.

Good lord that was a lot of fighty-fighty!
