![]() ![]() This TPB collects "The Secret Service" #1-6.Ĭreators: Mark Millar, Dave Gibbons & Matthew Vaughn I'd say read it if you're one of those curious fuckers (like I am) that enjoy seeing what the source material looks like. Would I recommend it to fans of the movie? Eh. In other words, the world is overpopulated and this nutter wants to cull the herd. Some of the stuff with the villain was changed (once again, for the better) in the movie but Millar's core ideas were still in place. It was off-putting, to say the least, but not a deal-breaker. Now, I wouldn't say the art is bad, but in a lot of the panels, Eggsy looks less like a young guy just out of his teens and more like a world-weary man who's about to hit his 40's.hard. He has to panhandle and pick up women? Get the fuck out of here with that boring nonsense. Everything about his training was better and more fleshed out. The spy school itself was loads more interesting in the movie. ![]() When the story picks up, this time (for whatever reason) his uncle has a change of heart and takes an active interest in him. He just shows up (routinely) and saves Eggsy from his trashy, thug ish shenanigans with this odd Get Out of Jail Free card that he flashes at the local police. To be honest, I much prefer Colin Firth's character and backstory to Eggsy's uncle.whatshisname? Doesn't matter. But it did cherry-pick the storyline to the (I think) betterment of the movie. Now, that's not to say that the movie didn't follow some of the better scenes and/or ideas of Millar's book. ![]() Because I didn't think this was all that entertaining. I didn't even realize Kingsman was a comic first!įor good reason, it turns out. ![]()
