THE TIME IS NIGH!
History's favorite duo are back together, and just in time! When Deadpool is hired to protect a woman from time-hopping villains, it's only a matter of time until he breaks the timestream. Fortunately, his old pal Cable has some experience with that. But dark secrets have put the client, and reality itself, in more danger than either of our heroes could have foreseen! David F. Walker, Paco Diaz, and a host of stellar guest artists take Cable and Deadpool on an adventure of epic proportions!
Rated T+
Last thing: when you go to the very last page of the story, take a second to soak in the very last panel. I believe Paco Diaz drew that one. It is SCARY how much Cable looks like Josh Brolin in that picture. Read Full Review

Cable/Deadpool Annual #1 just isnt funny. The jokes are weak and predictable, and the only enjoyable parts were extended analysis of comic books as a medium and the only time the two characters acted like humans. I cant recommend this one, with my general love for the work of David F. Walker. I suggest giving this one a pass. Read Full Review
Deadpool gets bamboozled into a time-traveling "creepy male stalker" story and Cable drops in once the mess starts damaging the timestream. This is a moron's idea of a smart time-travel script. (I don't mean too much offense to David F. Walker; I think this is a good writer being lazy rather than real incompetence.) 7th-grade jokes, labored Dr. Who references, a Terminator 2 frame, and Baby's First Summary of "Understanding Comics" thrown in for no good reason. A carousel of artists delivers pointless visual variety; nine different takes on "meh" visuals are exponentially "meh" when combined. Nick Bradshaw's "Pirates vs. mechano-Krakens" scene does look nice, though.
Felt a little desperate at times but not as bad as it could have been for sure.
