Writer Garth Ennis (The Boys, Preacher) talks about Hitman, one of his favorite comics to write, the creation of Tommy Monaghan and the odd assortment of friends & allies Tommy would keep, and his hopes that DC Comics wouldn't let it go out of print.

I really wish DC would reprint the whole thing, I don't know how great a demand there is for Hitman reprints but I'd buy them all.

Cheer's to all the guys at Noona's! "Drinks are on the house fellas! There ain't no closing time but you gotta leave your guns at the door" Cheers from Sweden!

I started reading hitman 15 years ago, but in Brazil the series was never fully published. I traveled to the U.S. in 2001 and managed to buy the series up to number #43 or so. Back in Brazil, altough a great fan of the series (and it was already available online), for whatever reason I never had read it to the end. Until last night \o/. And what a grand finale! Cheers!

Oh man...you're an idiot.

HITMAN IS A VERY VERY POOR MAN'S VERSION OF "THE PUNISHER". JUNK.

HEY!!! Maybe we CAN get new Hitman stuff in the New 52!!! Perfect opportunity!!! It would totally be funny if Tommy showed up and actually remembered the old universe.

Hitman got me into Ennis. God I miss that book. I wish we could get a full run of TPB, by golly.

Great Interview, i remember reading about it and buying the first issue way back in 96 and kept up. Everything Ennis writes is amazing.

[Butt Secks]

God, I love Hitman so much. I wish he had brought closure to his run on Shadowman V2, though.

All in all, one of the best writers in comtemporary comics.
