Deadpool Kills The Marvel Universe (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
I get the impression that this is the sort of comic that you will either greatly dislike or love in spite of yourself. Oddly enough, I found myself in the latter camp. It's the ultimate in gratuitous violence, an entire series created simply to revel in Deadpool's ability to unleash terrifying levels of gory violence. And also his tendency to be divorced from his reality, and to lean heavily on the fourth wall. In this case, he's seeing beyond the fourth wall entirely, and he's far more cracked and violent than he's ever been before.And believe it or not, it's hugely entertaining. It isn't a Deadpool-style absurd laugh fest, but there are definitely funny moments. But mostly the appeal is the senseless violence, which is absurdly enjoyable to read. As a lit geek who got in to comics through Deadpool, I really liked this series. In a market saturated with Deadpool comics, this series took an original idea and ran with it. Deadpool killing everyone isn't new (or surprising), but the literary character links offer something more to think about... especially if you pay attention to character archetypes. On top of that, I thought the series was just fun.
