This is the first strip of the inevitable Kick-Ass inspired story arc featuring Cloud and his mother Ye Thuza. I think this strip works quite well even if you have not seen the movie (which you totally should!). If you are interested in the controversial Hit-Girl character played by Chloë G. Moretz this Hit-Girl trailer at YouTube gives you a very good impression of her.
This month there will be no new vote incentives at TopWebcomics.
- Cloud: … and after Hit-Girl did that sideflip my mom said…
- Ralph: Huh, Hit-Girl from Kick-Ass? Your mom lets you watch R-rated superhero movies?
- Cloud: To say that she lets me “watch” Kick-Ass would be quite an understatement…
- Cloud: This jump is impossible! It must be a special effect!
- Ye Thuza: Don’t give up so easily, buster! You just need more momentum. That’s all!

Ye’s right. After all the things Cloud did in AC, I’d say he’d eat that girl for breakfast 🙂
The comic will always be so much better, I dont want to sound snoby but thats is true.
But the movie is Awsome, you know I still going to see “Capitain America” and “Thor”, cause even if they are horrible (like all the adaptations of Alan Moore) I will always like them, also Kick-Ass is too awsome in 2d and in 3d kicks asses!!!
PD: My parents allow my brothers and sisters to see R rated films just if they promise not have nightmares or t”raumatical” behaivour. My Dad seems to have bad drreams after seeing Pirates of the Caribbean 2
I bet he doesn’t believe in Limit Breaks either… Can’t wait to see THAT practiced.
Gerardo, Neither Thor nor Captain dumb are adaptations of Alan *Praise him* Moore’s comics not that he likes movie adaptations of his novels anyway.
havent seen hit-hirl but this strip TOTALLY makes justice of how I though cloud’s family would be…
The old Karate Kid had Wax on and wax off.
The new one has jacket on and jacket off.
Cloud has… jump, somersault, spin, slash with weapon mid-air, flying kick, land ON table.
Kick, knee, vault over target, back slash with weapon mid-air, Limit Break, land OFF in the distance.
Will Smith’s kid wouldn’t stand a chance.
Great strip. A word of advice, Cloud… never watch Kill Bill with Ye Thuza
hi, one of the funniest strips ever, I liked the kick ass move to ^^
(yay im the seventh person who posts coment, my lucky number)
I hope Cloud will put all of the Hollywood stunt team to shame!
Definitely a great strip!
I’ve only seen previews for “Kick Ass” but it looks worthwhile. If it’s as good as “Mystery Men” it definitely is! 🙂
Cloud intents to be Kick-Ass or just Cloud as really fan of Hit-girl?
But if Cloud was hero…it’s interesting for see that! Larisa will be Hit-girl, because she have the same personality like her
Hey it happened in a movie.
So IT MUST BE REAL…
right???
i saw the movie but the side flip i miss.
I doubt that, because Hit-Girl’s daddy also trained (brainwashed…) her to be ruthless, cold and calculative. Cloud hasn’t shown (yet) that he’s capable of switching gears from his normal, quite emotional self to steel-cold battle mindset in an instant. If he can’t do that he’ll be in trouble at first when faced with a girl-enemy.
looks like it’s time to call in the mythbusters!
His face in the last panel is absolutely priceless.
Argh XD’
and again I can make half my comment from quotes since a big part is already said 😛
Maybe I should be awake at midnight when the update comes ^^’
(Yes, at this time It’s midnight here 😛 )
I had this very thought! But I guess they are already over this ^^
At the other hand he seemed close to his Limit Break somewhere in between the CloudxSandra-shipper thing 😛
Well, in comparison… and dispite that no one is using firearms Kill Bill is relatively realistic…
Can’t remember anything from Kill Bill that would actually break the laws of physics.
Or did I miss something? o_ô
Also a good thing that Matrix ‘explains’ that it’s not real XD”’
What’s left…? “Bulletproof Monk” is one that comes to my mind right now XD
It’s good dispite the crappy B-Movie-like title. Whoever gave it that title should be hit with a fish… (no connection to the movie. I say that every time)
Any other (un)realistic movies? ^^
I’m also adding “kick-ass” to my ‘have-to-watch’ list… right behind some Anime 😡
Wow, I had no idea Kick Ass was inspired by a true story!
See, this is what I like about this site.
I have not seen the movie. I have no idea what scene they’re talking about. And yet, I still find it funny. Good webcomics like that are hard to find.
Hey, Ye, if you want him to believe it’s possible, how about demonstrating? Surely you’re willing to put your money where your, uh, foot is.
Cloud should have reminded his mom about the time she tried to teach him “Soul Caliber” combos.
Buster…as in Buster Sword?
LOL Get it?
Jupp. Think about the fight with the long-bearded master in the cherryblossom grove. Standing on the other’s sword tip… I didn’t lean about that in my physics lessons.
But yes, that’s the only one unrealistic thing I could think of, besides the morningstar-on-a-chain from the Gogo Yubari fight. Even if this was made physically correct, I don’t think anyone could survive a morningstar bouncing off your chest after a full-speed impact.
What is it about Hit Girl that makes us want our kids to be her? On the way from the theater to the car, my husband told my daughter she was getting a balisong and would learn how to use it or else! Of course, being that she’s 14, that’s a different sort of scary.
Now I’ve got one more reason why I need to see that movie…
Naaaah! It’s the famous comic ever, Kick-ass….
ejm this is: “Thor and Capitain America, as well as every movie based in the works of Alan Moore” dont think I am as Dumb to belive Thor and Capitain America are Moore´s characters duh!
PD: And please dont make this into a DC vs Marvel, I like Capitan America (aka Capitan Alitas)
PD: Alitas means little wings
— merge of double post —
Yes cause Ye Thuza didnt Brainwash his son by naming him “Cloud”
“A few weeks, Cloud, and we’ll have you jumping like Loz and Yazoo!”
On the “un” side… Almost anything using guns. 😉
Why didn’ I see Kick-Ass so far again? XP
Good to see Cloud and Larisa on one page again, but let’s hope Cloud’ll survive that jump cuz his mom won’t stop pushing it I bet. X3
die würd ich heiraten wenn se gross is =)
You didn’t see Kick Ass O.o Well I suppose thats not bad it is an ok movie
And I’m going to laugh when little Yuna does it no problem
Yuna- Hiya!
Cloud- *Booted to th head* Did you get the number on that vehicle? *Falls*
I kind of feel sorry for Cloud, being worked so hard…
…but at the same time, that’s still pretty awesome.
please remember we are talking about a person who managed to find a tonberry and killed it while exploring a factory. I don’t think the laws of realism apply to her, she probibly would succeed, dispite it being impossible.
I can only imagine if they watched Fist of Fury together… man, that movie is awesome.
Ooh, wierd. I actually just watched that for the first time at a $3 showing not but two days ago.
So could she have taken on Chuck Norris?
Wait, wait, wait, wait, WAIT!!
…..That was Ye Thuza??? Goes back and reads other strips.
…Ooooohhhhh, NOW I get it! I didn’t fully absorb that one. I thought the mystery person was still out there, waiting for his/her chance to jump backl into the story. Oh, well. 😛
:p I could so see my friend’s mom saying the same thing. Asian parents… They expect their kids to be able to defy the laws of physics.
Just finished reading through all your comics and I absolutely LOVE them! Amazing work you guys!
<3
whoa……Ye Thuza! it’s special effects! D: it’s a movie! they used those rope thingies!
Now i’m curious what she means by momentum. Do I forsee more cloud torment?
No … she IS Chuck Norris.
