Foolkiller #4 is a disappointing turn for what is otherwise a standout series. The inclusion of Deadpool hinders the story rather than strengthening it, and not much changes on the way to the book's ultimate conclusion. One can hope Bemis will recapture some of that early magic when the focus returns to where it should be in Foolkiller #5. Read Full Review

Deadpool spirit-guides Foolkiller through a meta-fictional, self-referential wank of middling quality. Meta-fictional wankery is author Max Bemis's wheelhouse, so there's a healthy load of humorous "comics about comics" material here. This feels like the place this title should have started, and it makes the previous three issues look that much worse in comparison.
