I checked Wikipedia, and there are three trade publications that compile the series, with the creator considering a live action movie. :xx:

either get what loki linked (or "cbr reader"), or rename it to .rar and extract the files

I just opened it with rar. There's also a nifty program called CDisplay that lets you read it like a comic book.

Yeah, same deal as Comic Book Reader, but I like CBR better :santa:

Pretty sure there's a compiler program for that somewhere.

It really was. I would watch a live action movie if it were exactly like this.

i'm not sure if i'm into the premise, but garth ennis wrote it so that's enough to convince me it's worth a shot.

The premise is wholly ridiculous, so I'm down. I just hope it doesn't get the treatment that Mark Millar's books get when they are sanitized heavily. You couldn't get away with Wanted as written in the graphic novel, but you certainly don't have to make them good guys. Kick-Ass was the same way; you didn't have to change certain elements in the plot. Nemesis has two issues so far, and they're fantastic. I really don't want to see it dumbed down when the movie is made.
