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.

This event sucks. I don't like Blade as the big bad. Thor was already the most powerful character in the whole marvel universe. Now he has the Odinforce(I guess Thorforce now) but is still hanging out with the Avengers is stupid enough as is. Now he is getting beat by a bunch of vampires. Odin was on the level of Phoenix, Galactus, etc, yet he is somehow seemingly less powerful than he was doesn't more

I like the story overall, but using kryptoninte really took the momentum away for me. I'm just over Kryptonite, it's used way too often with Superman. I don't care if it's a new type or whatever. It's dumb and unoriginal and just a plain ass lazy way to make Superman vulnerable. Just make it extinct DC. Please.

More of the same. It's a stupid story set in an entertaining time in history. Even in the Roman days, you needed one woman in a group of hundreds of men to set them straight and call them out for being cowards. This is how it would really go. Woman: You are all being cowards!

So she killed the main villain? But yet let his guilt about it turn him into such a victim it completely ruined both of their lives? That is pretty dumb. The whole reasoning of giving him the spotlight because he needed it doesn't really work if it in fact was hurting him.

This issue was much better. But this setup should have happened by issue 2. I have a feeling we were baited pretty hard with this sith lord. With one issue left, what can they possibly do with whatever sith comes back even if they do? Maybe one will come back and it will lead into another series but I doubt it.

I guess I'm just having a hard time dealing with how easy Spider-Man was beaten by Tombstone. Unless they are going to explain a big strength upgrade I don't get it. Spider-Man would be dead by now if Tombstone who is much weaker beats him by putting him in a bear hug. The rest of the story can do whatever it wants, but it doesn't work for me knowing him getting beaten so easily doesn't really mak more

I don't disagree that not much happened at all and I understand people's frustrations with Peter's characterization as we don't know why exactly he is acting the way he is but at least in regards to him losing that fight, after Beyond it was clear he wasn't at 100% and is likely still recovering. If not from that than from whatever happened to him '6 months ago' that will hopefully explore why he is treating his life the way he is.

Beyond_Batman - Jun 20, 2022

I'm just catching up on all my back issues but I completely agree. Tombstone is not as strong as spiderman and nowhere near as fast and doesn't have a spider sense. He should be able to just overpower tombstone. I liked the issue until this point.
