Now what the heck is going on here?
I really liked issue #1,
found #2 to be boring, and now I’m liking issue #3 again. Are the writers
(Gerry Dugan and Brian Posehn) switching off or something? Seriously, the jokes
are back to the quality of issue one. I actually laughed out loud a few times
while reading this one.
Comedy will only get me so far in reading a book, and another
improvement comes from the involvement of Dr. Strange. He’s still wearing that
weak get-up from New Avengers, but Strange is fully in his element here. His
dialogue stays true to character while still getting in a few zingers, helping
him to fit in a Deadpool comic.
Slowly but surely, Deadpool is working his way through the
dead presidents. Abe Lincoln and George Washington return to bedevil our hero,
and they escape again too. I guess they must be the recurring villains in this
weird comic!
Tony Moore must be ticked to draw this version of Dr.
Strange. Surely that’s a disappointment for folks other than me! I do like the
design of the occult SHIELD logo on the Necromancer. That certainly seems like
a good lead-in for an ongoing plot. Moore also continues to excel on the gore.
When Gerry Ford takes a header into a propeller, you know the quality on that
viscera is going to be high.
Fair
