Customer Reviews
Awful. I’ve only recently gotten back into comics, but I’ve enjoyed everything Deadpool I’ve ever read (incl. the new run, Cable/Deadpool, and the “classic” Deadpool tpbs).
This issue is horrible. A couple of the short stories are decent, but due to the length most are just content to have a couple pages of silliness leading up to a punchline.
That wouldn’t be fatal if the silliness or punchlines were funny, but they’re not. Deadpool farts fire. Deadpool punches through a cat. Deadpool farts fire (yes: again). Fat jokes. The stuff in here would be too juvenile for a 12-year-old audience.
Bottom line: I’m actually embarrassed to own this comic and will be getting rid of it asap.
[stealth edit: In fairness, most of the art was very good. All the more shame that the writing was so bad.]

Agreed. Deadpool is best when he is crazy, but clever. When there is a method to his madness. Not when he’s used as a medium for delivering bad jokes.
Fortunately we are spared a second team up series (see deadpool 900)
