I bought sooo many Marvel books last week and read even more. Just wanna say Fraction is on a role. Also loved the Deadpool and Evan moment in UXF.
@longbowhunter: same with me. I've never been a Deadpool fan but that scene with Even was just too good.
@Mr_Athrilla: I've always liked Deadpool even though he is a bit of a one trick pony. I think Remender really gave that character some much needed development in the pages of Uncanny X-Force.
@G-man: The swords in WW#15 came from her bracelets. Hephaestus did something to them earlier in the issue.

Yup, he appears and tinkers with them. What's why she's so surprised when the swords appear; she didn't have a clue what the tinkering would do. Answer: swords!
@new_onslaught: @CrashBang: That's why I added the note about there being some sort of explanation. I still say it's weird that back in JUSTICE LEAGUE, there was no explanation or scene of the sword appearing. It was just there in the next panel.
Good stuff, but why do you handle your books like that. Precious treasures each and every one of them!
The "SWORDS!" moment is only kinda funny because you can see the bottom of the page when she magics the swords out of thin air as Tony's complaining about it.
I'm confused, I thought Miles Morales bats for the other team? And Playguy Magazine, lol gotta love the ways in which comics try to prevent brand name violations.

He didn't, though.
It just seems like it because we've had Way and Gischler making him a rotten joke since God knows when. He was never this ridiculous when Joe Kelly had him. He was a reasonably muscular, self-aware, corrosively witty lethal mercenary who was feared.
This is only amazing development compared to what we've had since Way.
@The Mast: Yes, he was a multifaceted character under the pen of Joe Kelly. My favorite story is still the '98 Deadpool and Death annual. But have you seen anyone write Wade as well since then? Remender might not have reinvented the wheel, but he damn sure reminded everyone of its potential.
@ 4.40, You do know that cover from X-men: Legacy is taken from work of the classic Dutch artist M.C. Escher right?

It's a shame he went from a character with depth to "LOL, MEME MAN! RECYCLING MEMES FROM THE INTERNET!! XD!!!!"
It really pains me how much Deadpool is just any joke the writer can think of man now.
@Cafeterialoca: Agreed. Personally I cant stand flash-in-the-pan pop culture and memes. They tend to leave a dated aftertaste on anything they touch. Deadpool has been the neutered clown of the 616 for too long.

That, and they just make the character become increasingly tired.
Remember when Deadpool had at least 5 books coming out and now they all fell apart?
It also bothers me how resistant Marvel is to building a supporting cast to Deadpool. Hell, I think people would be shock when they find out who Copycat was and how that was a serious element in Deadpool's life.
