When I first saw the cover of this issue in Previews, I thought sweet, two Deadpools! I hope it's not too much. What I don't remember seeing was GUEST STARRING KA-ZAR! Ummm. Yea, I could have done without that being splashed across the front. I mean, is there anyone thinking of picking up this title solely on the basis of a C minus level X-character? I mean, besides Deadpool?
All in all this is a promising issue. It didn't blow me out of the water, but it's a cool story. You get to see how Deadpool views AIM, which is nearly as funny as his hallucination of Mister Moneybags in the otherwise dull Deadpool one-shot from last spring. Bong Dazo (Really, an artist on Deadpool is named Bong? Bong Dazo? Really?)'s style is a little cartoony for me, but it fits the way Victor Gischler's skewed Deadpool sees the world.
This issue also features an old Kelly/Mcguinness Deadpool issue. It's funny, I don't remember this stuff looking so...well, like Deadpool's answer to the Batman Brave & The Bold art. It looks so kid friendly. And while it isn't The Boys special Yaoi issue, or anything. It probably shouldn't be on Fox Kids anytime soon.
