    Just Plain Nuts, and It Works !!!

    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 hint of crazy humor. There is never a dull moment throughout this comic, however I was dissapointed because I found it too short and was asking for more. Expecially after that surprise ending.

    Paco Media is also so far my favorite Deadpool artist, his character drawings is exactly how I see the "merc with the mouth" when I vision him.

    If your looking for a fun little book that doesn't take itself seriously, pick this up.

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...

      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...
