Background

Hit-Girl is the deuteragonist in the Kick-Ass comic book series. She is a young but effective vigilante, trained by her father, Big Daddy, from an early age to be a costumed superhero and assassin. Hit-Girl is the superhero identity of Mindy McCready.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Mindy's story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Early Life Mindy McCready was told by her father Damon Macready, a former police officer, that her mother was assassinated by mob kingpin John Genoverse when she was younger. This motivated her to train as a crime fighter to one day avenge her mother, and the two left New York to begin her training. Damon trained her for years, constantly on the run and changing their names until they donned a superhero identity; Big Daddy and Hit-Girl. Years later, they returned to New York where they would finish Genoverse and destroy his mafia empire. In Kick-Ass 1 Hit-Girl first met Kick-Ass when she and Big Daddy hit a small gang coincidentally just as Kick-Ass was confronting them, and she saved his life. Kick-Ass was mystified by her secretive nature, while all the other heroes were making names for themselves on the internet, Hit-Girl was virtually unheard of. Her and Big Daddy's vendetta against the mob did lead to her being heard of, but few people knew much about her. Hit-Girl and Big Daddy remained in contact with Kick-Ass for future plans against the mafia. Kick-Ass later introduced Hit-Girl and Big Daddy to Red Mist, who turned out to be the son of the mob boss, John Genovese, Big Daddy's primary target, although Kick-Ass was unaware of this. Angry that his crime organization was targeted, Genovese planned for his son, Red Mist, to use Kick-Ass to bring Hit-Girl and Big Daddy into his trap. After the four met up, Genoverse's team surrounded the hideout and captured Big Daddy and Kick-Ass, along with presumably killing Hit-Girl after she was shot several times and fell out of a window. After torturing and killing Big Daddy, along with nearly killing Kick-Ass, Hit-Girl arrived to everyone's surprise, and killed the grunts holding Kick-Ass hostage. Once Hit-Girl freed Kick-Ass, the two went to avenge her father, with Kick-Ass taking down Red Mist while she fought John Genovese. Hit-Girl struggled against Genovese until Kick-Ass intervened after incapacitating Red Mist, shooting Genovese in the testicles, and Hit-Girl used the distraction to violently kill him and the rest of the mafia. After taking down the organization, Hit-Girl became an urban legend in the superhero community but she returned to live with her mother and Marcus, the man investigating Hit-Girl's disappearance, and tried living a normal life. Marcus was fully aware of her secret identity, urging her to quit fighting crime so as to not traumatize her mother any more than she already was. In Kick-Ass 2 Although Hit-Girl was trying to live a normal life, she began training Kick-Ass martial arts and self defense for his future career, which lasted for six months before Marcus found out and stopped her, forcing Hit-Girl and Kick-Ass to end their training. Kick-Ass tried inviting Hit-Girl to a new team, Justice Forever, but later turned down his requests, as she made a promise to Marcus. Marcus then banned Hit-Girl from spending any time with Kick-Ass. Hit-Girl made a comeback after the attack of the Mother-Fucker's team at the funeral of Kick Ass' father. After saving Kick-Ass from his abductors, they detoured onto the former "Justice Forever" hideout, where they wiped out many members of the Toxic Mega-Cunts. After interrogating and torturing one remaining survivor in the hideout, Hit-Girl warned Marcus about an attack in Time square which will be led by the Mother-Fucker himself. Later on, in Time Square, she battled side to side with Kick-Ass against the Team of the Mother-Fucker and Mother Russia, wherein she was badly disadvantaged with. She faced Mother Russia and eventually got the advantage after stabbing the latter with a broken glass in the neck and the stomach. Hit-Girl then proceeded to decapitate Mother Russia. At the near end of the battle, she told Kick-Ass to return to the HQ with her following behind shortly afterwards. She then made a diversion by throwing a smoke grenade to save Kick-Ass from the police, who would have arrested him after seeing him throw the Mother-Fucker from the rooftop. She took a police car and went on a road rage before being stopped by a police officer, who took advantage of her morality as a superhero. By the end of the series, she was heavily injured and bruised and was arrested and charged with 60 counts of murder. In Kick-Ass 3 After the events of Kick-Ass 2, Hit-Girl was sentenced to prison and continues to remain so, where she awaits Kick-Ass and crew to free her. After several weeks of no luck, she begins several escapes and nearly succeeds multiple times, but ultimately fails. Elsewhere, Hit-Girl confides to her psychiatrist (after being bribed with Hello Kitty trading cards, which she proclaims are her only vice) that she has managed to circumvent the prison's security so as to allow her to wander around at night, killing problematic inmates. Furthermore, she talks about how her father created his false backstory, with help from Marcus, in order to manipulate her into continuing her training to become Hit-Girl. During her imprisonment, Mindy meets her mother for the first time since the latter found out about Hit-Girl, and despite Mindy fearing that she would be unhappy, her mother instead praises her for fighting crime. In jail, Mindy is drugged by a group of corrupt guards working for Rocco, who plan to have Chris execute Mindy in front of all the other gang leaders on the Eastern Seaboard. At the mercy of Chris, Mindy is saved when he, out of guilt for how his actions turned his mother into a pariah, turns and kills the corrupt guards, getting mortally wounded during the gunfight. Helping Mindy escape in a van, Chris accidentally crashes due to his injuries, and dies of his wounds. The police, also working for Rocco, find his body later. Mindy is caught by a police officer but is saved by Dave, who kills the police officer by bashing him in the back of the head and sticking his baton in the wound. The duo return to Justice Forever HQ after having learned from Chris that all the gang leaders will be gathering in a boathouse, and go their separate ways; Mindy goes to Rocco's meeting in a speedboat, intending to kill all the gang leaders assembled there, while Dave goes to save Todd in Big Daddy's monster truck. Mindy raids the meeting, killing Rocco as well as everyone else there. Gigante and the rest of the corrupt cops arrive as she is leaving and hold her at gunpoint. Mindy reveals to the cops that she was the anonymous tipster, before triggering explosives that kill all of the corrupt police officers except for Gigante. She then maims Gigante by shooting out his pelvis and informing him that he will be turning state's evidence. Epilogue of the Kick-Ass Trilogy Mindy remains an active vigilante, killing criminals across the world, though she never contacts Dave again she did however give flowers to her mother once every years similar to the flowers her father gave to her. In a 'post credits scene', Mindy shows up at the house of a bullied kid with Kick-Ass's uniform, announcing that she is now going to train him to be a superhero.

Other

Standard Tactics: Hit-Girl is incredibly ruthless and very rarely shows any empathy for her opponents. She will not hesitate to kill them given any opportunity, and will do so in various ways to make the experience more fun. Against characters she cares about or would rather not kill (An example being police officers) she will incapacitate them by using knock-out gas or stun grenades.

Weaknesses: Has shown to act more ruthless and reckless when enraged either through sensitive subjects, such as her dad (Although her father can intervene as a spirit and bring her back to her senses), or having her morality as a superhero misrepresented.
