Superhero daydreams meet real-world danger

Dave Lizewski begins as an ordinary New York City teenager whose enthusiasm for superheroes leads him to put on a costume and patrol the streets. The story turns on the gap between comic-book fantasies of heroism and the risks of trying to act them out in a city where danger is real. This compendium gathers all four volumes of the original Kick-Ass: The Dave Lizewski Years series, collecting issues #1–8, #1–5, #1–6, and #1–8, respectively.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in superhero stories grounded in a contemporary city setting.
  • Those who want the complete four-volume Dave Lizewski series in one collection.
