10 Comic Book Sidekicks Better Than Their Mentors

9. Hit Girl

Nightwing Punches Batman

There is no arguing that Hit Girl stole the show in both Kick Ass films, which isn't very surprising given her comic book origins. This pint-sized vigilante does not share Batman's anti-killing policy, and as such has killed plenty of people as a result.

The purple-haired butterfly knife specialist was trained by her father Big Daddy when he tricked her into thinking a mafia boss killed her mother. That little white lie fuelled her rage and drove her to become the deadly killing machine fans have come to know and love.

Her skill set in martial arts and weaponry is well above average for someone her age, and that makes her all the more formidable when compared to her pops.

Big Daddy is a notorious firearm enthusiast, but time and time again fans have witnessed Hit Girl tear through the waves of heavily armed foes leaving their severed limbs in pools of blood before they could empty their magazines.
