Kick Ass - Any Questions? - Ben Rosenthal



1.  Kick Ass stands at a podium, surrounded by the media.  He has called a press conference.

KICK ASS
I've called you here today to make an announcement.


2.  Kick Ass is reaching for his mask.  He is pulling it off.

KICK ASS
However as you all know, I believe that actions speak louder than words.


3.  Kick Ass’ identity is revealed.  However it is not David Lizewski but Chris Genovese.


4.  In David’s room.  His hands are on either side of the TV.  He is dumbfounded that this has happened.  On the tv screen Chris is staring right down the camera, smirking.  It is almost as if he is staring directly at Dave through the screen. 

DAVE
No no no no.

CHRIS/KICK ASS

Any questions?

  1. Masterpiece. The Civil War reference was pretty funny, but then you turned it into a classic-style cliffhanger. Great switcheroo.

  2. Kick ass is seen my most as all about the over the top gore and violence, the fact you took us on such a different path was a great move.

    This page builds quickly then swerves us at the last second for an unexpected yet brilliant final panel reveal.
