Wanted

[Yoshi]

I don't know much about Wanted, but the Super Bowl commercial kicked ass.

edit: It stars James McAvoy, Morgan Freeman, and Angelina Jolie and opens June 27th.

If you read the comic, you would have cried.

In a bad way.

[bbobb]

I've seen the trailer, it looks horrible.

As sleeve mentioned they're ruining the comic. What is this good guy assassins bullshit?

[Yoshi]

I had no clue this was a comic. It must be something fairly recent.

[bbobb]

Sometime in the 2000's, I don't remember when exactly.

[Yoshi]

Yeah, that's well after my comic book days. I probably bought my last book in about 1993.

The premise of the comic (avoiding spoilers OMG) was that Wesley discovers he's the son of the Killer, the greatest assassin who ever lived, and a member of a society of supervillains.

But the best part was, the supervillains had already won. By the time Wesley joined them, they had already killed every superhero in their way. So they resorted to raping and pillaging other universes, and killing their superheroes. Over the course of the story, Wesley goes from being a mild-mannered office drone to a depraved, violent, amoral sociopath.

"Kill one man, save a thousand," my ass.

Yeahhhhh... this is going to be a giant piece of shit.

The comic's actually pretty awesome, Yoshi. Worth picking up used on Amazon at least.

Fuck. The comic sounds awesome.

Don't get too carried away, the main character's drawn to look like Eminem.
