Kick Ass: The Board Game

Not knowing anything about the comic (or the movie ?) does this have enough of a mainstream following to warrant a proper release ?

I read and enjoy a lot of comics, but Mark Millar is one of my all-time least favorite comic writers. He likes to write superhero comics, but he is apparently too much of a sociopath to understand heroism. So instead he writes about amoral assholes like Hitgirl or the Ultimate Avengers. I am giving this game a hard pass.

That said, if this game was coming out in 2011 or even 2013, I think it could have gotten a fair amount of mainstream interest due to the movie. But it is 2018, and the zeitgeist has moved on.

Agreed. Not really my generation but I have a hard time believing there's a lot of nostalgia for Kick-Ass.

This game will soon be sitting next to other timely releases featuring an I P nobody cares about such as The Dark Crystal and X-files. That is to say on the discount table in the back of the shop.
