Kick-Ass: The Dave Lizewski Years Book Four by Mark Millar

4.0

Reading this the 4th volume of Kick-ass made me wonder if there are similarities to Duterte's Philippines. Violence between vigilantes, mobsters, and crooked cops provide cover for each others' vendettas, leading to all kinds of murders and massacres. Reading this book I just realized one of the things I find so disturbing about Hit-Girl is how dead-eyed she is while she scythes down all her enemies. Now for the spoilers. I also liked Kick-Ass's efforts to go back to being normal... though I wished he chose a career closer to Valerie's career at the end. Finally, when Dave was blowing off the superherodom to be with Valerie, how were either of them also holding down normie jobs? I'd been thinking I would not keep reading the series after vol. 4.... but now I'm reconsidering. I'm a sucker for a series.
