Lionsgate Releases Kick-Ass Posters

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Marvel Comics,

Lionsgate provides a nice treat for fans of Mark Millar‘s and John Romita, Jr.‘s Kick-Ass, unmasking four posters for the film adaptation.

Directed by Matthew Vaughn, the film hits theaters April 16, 2010.
