Well, I've just finished reading this re-booted Clint. Have to say, I'm extremely underwhelmed. "Supercrooks" art was about it's only saving grace. I quite liked it. Sadly, It's truly terrible story, ideas and dialogue wise. Millar on auto-pilot. I have no clue whats happening in Rex Royd. At all. Maybe I'm just not clever enough for it? As for "Secret Service".....it was OK. Gibbons artwork is, of course, fantastic. I like the setup of the first episode, too. So, it's a thumbs up for only one of the three strips from me. Not enough for me to continue to buy it from here, really.

I had planned to stop buying Clint when it reached the end of V1 but thought I'd give it another go. The new strips seem ok, especially Secret Servicwe which got off to a good start. Rex Royd however can just fuck off. It's an incoherent mess that becomes even more stupid with every issue. Any other editor would have put it in the bin rather than indulge this crap.

I had planned to stop buying too... until I saw that secret service and supercrooks were both featured. It's not that I'm a massive Millar fan but it seems to be such good value for money that it's silly not to buy it.

The newsagents I usually get this from had none in stock, although they also seem to have stopped stocking the Meg :(
if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

My tragic dilemma too, Danbell.
One US copy of either Secret Service or Supercrooks costs bout the same as Clint...

Shhiiiit, if anyone out there hates Millar that much, a copy of Clint is probably cheaper than a pack of toilet roll.

It's all right, that's in every contract.
That's what they call a sanity clause.
You can't fool me, there ain't no sanity clause.

It's out now. I bought it in FP London yesterday.

sorry to necropost, but is CLiNT still a thing or has it gone the way of Crisis and Deadline? I can't find any reference to it on the web past 2.6. I haven't brought it since issue 3, just wondering like.

Last I heard, they'd put it on hiatus until they had enough completed Kick Ass pages to be able to guarantee a chunk of it every issue.

Wow, they can't have much faith in it outside its flagship strip then.

Millar said over on the MW forums that "Kick Ass is Clint's Judge Dredd".

You may make of that what you will.

Cheers!

I saw a new issue on the shelves two weeks ago, but I think it was a long time between the last coupla issues were released.
I stopped getting it a while back- it was great value, but always found itself at the bottom of my read pile (and mounting up).

Wonder if he'll include 'Jupiters Legacy' in the upcoming Vol 3 relaunch.
Would make it an attractive purchase even just for Quitely's stunning art.
