The writer tells EW about Patience Lee, his newest superhero

The news keeps coming out of Millarworld.

But that doesnt mean Millar is done with his older, established properties.

Next year, Millar will launch a newKick-Asscomic, 10 years after the original run first began.

I did it inEmpressand Ive done it again here.

Id always wanted to do whatDoctor WhoorThe Flashdoes and create a legacy character, Kick-Ass being designed for that.

I wanted to shake up the setting a little and shifted the whole thing to New Mexico.

The lead is a woman this time, a mother in her early 30s with two young kids.

Wed missed each other so much, Millar says.

Id honestly missed his daily insults and pages and just his little Italian face.

Kick-Ass 3

We did Kick-Ass right after a Wolverine run back at Marvel and just love working together.

Getting him back [at DC] after his big run was just the most incredible coup.

The first issue of the newKick-Asswill hit stores Feb. 14, 2018.
