SuperCrooks

"Supercrooks may be the first new comic coming from Mark Millar's Millarworld comics line in 2012, but he's been working on the super powered heist story for year. "'Supercrooks' came about because I'd always wanted to see a supervillain story done like a Guy Ritchie movie -- a sort of big, over the top heist story done like 'Lock, Stock' or 'Oceans 11,' but with cracking new super-villains and interesting powers," the writer told CBR as he and longtime collaborator Leinil Francis Yu shared six exclusive pages of the Icon comic as the kickoff to CBR's Millarworld week of reveals. "I remember watching 'Lock, Stock' and thinking, 'I'd love to see something in comics done like this -- a bunch of guys getting together to pull off a big robbery.' So, 'Supercrooks' has been in my mind since back then. I thought there was such potential there for a rogues gallery who all had distinct personalities and specialties. They get together and pull one big job."
