Pick of the week!!!!!!!!!! "OH $#@!" - Translated from Skrull 0
Remember last year when I said, "Booster Gold is the best first issue to any comic I've read in years!"? Guess what, not anymore. Deadpool is nothing short of perfect for an opening issue to a series. There is, however, one thing I can say bad about this comic, it wasn't long enough. The actual story was 22 pages. Then there was 9 pages on the history of Deadpool. That's nice and all, but I'd rather have 9 more pages of Deadpool hallucinating as he fights Skrulls. The main reason I picked this b...

I liked it. 3
Believe it or not, I'm not the biggest Deadpool fan out there. I like him but sometimes get annoyed by how he's written. I don't think he's the ultimate fighter and shouldn't be portrayed that way. I'm not saying he can't hold his own in a fight but sometimes I feel the writers exaggerate his skills. I really liked Deadpool when he first came on the scene. Then he started getting annoying. But he's supposed to be. That's who he is. He is like a crazed Spider-Man, in terms of the witty ba...

Happy about the new series. 0
I'm a huge Deadpool fan, don't get me wrong, but this first issue was a bit disappointing. I was looking forward to a brawl between Wade and that Super Skrull but instead, it does not happen. Let down. The ending, I actually liked because it puts a whole twist to Secret Invasion and paves the way for an interesting betrayal later in the issues. Overall, this was a decent first issue. Gets a 4 only because it's my favorite character's new monthly series and he deserves it....

Deadpool 1 0
As much as I hate disagreeing with my good buddy, inferiorego, I must confess that I was really quite disappointed in this issue. I'm not a big Cable fan and I hadn't read any of the early Deadpool series, but from what I had heard, I liked the idea of the unhinged, possibly schizophrenic hitman, with the inner dialogues and hallucinogenic visions. I quite liked his tussle with Wolvie in Wolverine Origins. But there, as here, my worst fears were confirmed regarding writer Daniel Way. Now it'...

Pure Escapism 0
There is not one bit of story to get in the way of this plot. This book is absolute non stop action comedy. As a first issue, well ... if it was not for the pages and pages of back up origin story, you would have no intro to the character what so ever. Also, that is the only real story in the book. That said, on the basis of pure escapism, this issue works wonders. It is funny and exciting, and a really cool, if not particularly important chapter to the Secret Invasion....

Just Plain Nuts, and It Works !!! 0
I have been a Deadpool fan for a long time now, and when I heard that Daniel Way was going to be writing the new series, I was a bit worried. However after reading this first issue, I enjoyed it. Daniel Way has added new aspects to the character that makes him a little more interesting, I enjoy the Pool-o-vision, but I'm not a big fan of the two talking boxes. The entire book is nothing but Deadpool killing off all the Skrulls who have the misfortune to walk in his way. All action with just a hi...

Super-Dead-Skrull-Pool! 1
In This Issue: It's Deadpool versus the Skrull invasion! (With a little bonus "Deadpool Saga" at the end.) Writing: Daniel Way's writing definitely hit Deadpool on the head for me. This is one of those characters that you just can't take too seriously in the Marvel U. The two (or three if you count his actual word balloons) voices in his head was hilarious. One thing that I thought was a little out of place was the hallucination he has at the beginning of the book. I don't want to sound lik...
