Deadpool

I've never read much Deadpool before. I'm reading his eponymous title now, and I have to say, it's not bad. In fact, the whole

thing is actually really depressing. I'm at about issue 14 now, and despite the corny, often poorly written jokes, I really started to feel for the character. When DP realizes that

--pretty good.

It is fun, but he is getting over exposed right now. It will strart to drag soon, and fall off, unfortunately. just the way marvel does these things when a character gets hot.

Is there a new series? I'm actually reading the Deadpool series from 1997 onward. #14 is from 1998.

There's a whole new deal going on with him now that really took off with the end of the Skrull thing and Norman Osborn taking over SHIELD.

Also the Cable and Deadpool run is pretty good.

Cable deadpool was amazing.

There are 3 or 4 current running books with him right now, and another about to hit as well.

Oh wow, I just finished the whole Mithras storyline. This is really friggin' good. I mean, this is one of the best plot lines I've seen in a comic in a long, long time. I love Deadpool's complete confusion about his place in the world. He was the perfect character to put in the position to make that decision. The side plots with LL&L are pretty good. This would actually make a very good movie if directed well.

Now get ready for some disappointment when the next writer steps in.
