Typically a Deadpool & Wolverine comic book would be loaded with violence, banter, internal monologues and fourth-wall breaks. This is so much more. Read Full Review
Deadpool & Wolverine: WWIII #2 is ultra-violent fun. This is the type of comic book that as soon as you open it you turn off your brain and just enjoy what is going on each page. Read Full Review
These characters are so lovable, not just because of how badass they are. It's also because of what they think they aren't. They're so much more than a Merc with a Mouth, and a berserker rage filled animal. This comic gave us a softer side of these two, but never lost who they actually are. I'm very excited to see where this story goes on many different levels, as there is a lot more going on as well. Whether you're a longtime comic reader, or just pumped for July 26th, definitely add this one to your pull list. SNIKT! Read Full Review

Still evading expositional nutrients, Kelly and Kubert's second of three issues still makes for a tasty literary treat. Read Full Review
Plot
Wolverine arrived at Wade's call and then followed in his footsteps until he encountered Wade Wilson the Third, WWIII, an enhanced version who was created by a mysterious person named Delta. Wolverine faces this enhanced and deadly version of Deadpool who battles Logan for the amusement of an elite millionaires.
Amazing fight sequence, with dismemberments, blood and a lot of mutant healing factor.
But Delta stops the fight, because she doesn't want her experiment to be damaged and she wants to prove that she can surpass Woverine.
Wade was deceived again, Delta promised him that she would cure him of cancer and that he would return to normal, but now Deadpool is more deformed and it hurts him to be an experimen more
Joe Kelly is the only one who writes a good Deadpool. He is a messed up,conflicted, and tortured person who uses his humor as a his escape. Everyone else writes him like he is a walking joke machine that never takes anything seriously. To finally see him have some emotional depth again is great. If you read his run in the 90's it is really hard to read anyone else's depiction of him.
But, as far as the actual story goes it's great. It's just as violent and bloody as you'd expect from wolverine and Deadpool. Good from start to finish.
P.S. go read joe Kelly's run on Deadpool.
While I'm slightly annoyed with how this story is being told, I do think there's some excellent character work here.
Terrible story, decent art
