“Don’t you just hate chases where you can’t just shoot the people you’re chasing!?”

This is completely NOT a “vs.” comic, but I couldn’t help but love it despite being fooled by the title. By the cover and the blurb the reader expects and full out brawl between our Marvel archer and undying anti-hero, but in reality it’s a bunch of (hilarious) bickering and Deadpool stepping in to save a brainwashed Hawkeye.

Putting that bit aside, Duggan borrowed Matt Fraction’s Clint show more Barton and Kate Bishop- which works just fine to keep the Marvel ‘verses together. Deadpool even gets confused when Hawkeye’s dog gets his standard panels. The three battle against Black Cat who stole confidential information- not a very thick plot- but I think this comic centers more or less around the comedy aspect as Hawkeye and Deadpool are making snark comments about Black Cat and Spiderman throughout (*snicker*), and Deadpool eventually ends up in the classic Hawkeye costume.

Overall, Hawkeye vs Deadpool is an amusing addition to the Marvel universe that fans are bound to enjoy.

God this was so good. Pirate Captain Kate Pryde of The Marauders is far and away a perfect representation of everything I love about this character. It's so on brand for her.

Like, literally, issue #1 of this series - on its own - had more amazing Kate Pryde moments than the ENTIRE RUN OF X-MEN: GOLD. Just. Night and day.

I checked this book out on impulse, and had nearly decided to return it to the library unread when my eleven-year-old asked if he could read it. Given the reputation of Deadpool comics, I thought maybe I should read it first, just in case.

Overall I was pretty underwhelmed. Maybe because it was some giant crossover book with tons of characters who were clearly supposed to mean something to me, but just didn't. But I don't think it was only that, because I didn't even like Clint & Kate as much show more here as I've like them elsewhere.

A big solid "meh," from me. But I guess at least it wasn't inappropriate for my eleven-year-old? show less

Pretty good! Full of adventure and the never-boring Spider-Man wit. I really enjoyed the guest appearance of Wolverine and The Blonde Phantom. As always, Gwen Stacy manages to stir up a little trouble and can never seem to get her nose out of where it doesn't belong. Sophia is a fun addition to the mix. Never a dull moment when Spider-Man's involved. =)
