TO KILL THE KILLER OR BE KILLED!
What does a trained killer do when trained killers try to kill them? Naturally, they try to kill those trained killers first. That's right - the hunter becomes the hunted and then becomes the hunter again because, duh, he's Deadpool, killing is his answer to most problems.
Rated T+
It takes a lot for a Deadpool story to win me over. A snappy story, fun dialogue, a good art does exactly that here. Read Full Review
Deadpool #7 is built almost entirely out of a punchline-filled scene, so it's your standard Deadpool issue. Read Full Review
Deadpool #7 concludes date night with energetic fights, terrible humor, and a main character who has almost no agency in his own comic. The longer this series continues in this state, the less reason Deadpool fans will have to keep reading. Read Full Review
This was my favorite issue of the series yet. It went by a bit quick for me, but it was a ton of fun throughout. From the beginning game with the Atelier, to Wade & Valentine's fight with Last Bite & Rävohna, to Princess being the cutest and scariest creature simultaneously. Plus, Zagaria has some nice art here that particularly shines, for me, whenever Princess is on the page. Great stuff here.
Date night wraps up with all the ridiculous fun and Looney Tunes violence I could ask for. It's funny and thoroughly satisfying, but as the story bends towards its next step, I have two worries:
1) Three artists in three issues. We're on the carousel for sure. None of the art has been bad--but it hasn't been great enough to fully overcome the disappointment of the changes. Riding the artist carousel has made me appreciate what a big contribution Martín Cóccolo made with his unique style. I really hope we get back to it.
2) The Big Bad seems to be stuck in a loop. Send two assassins to kill Wade and Valentine. It doesn't work; the heroes kill them. So, send two *more* assassins. Whoop de do.
