The Pull List Comic Reviews: ‘Deadpool: Suicide Kings’, ‘Lenore’ & ‘X-Men Legacy’

by John Carle, Aug 21 2009 // 7:30 AM

deadpoolDeadpool: Suicide Kings #5 – Marvel – $3.99
Score: 8.0

Don’t let the cover fool you, that’s not Zombie Deadpool’s head that Tombstone is holding. That guy’s only appearing in Deadpool: Merc with a Mouth for now. Instead of guest starring Z-pool, this issue picks up with the guest starring Spider-Man as he and Deadpool square off against the Wrecking Crew. (Side note: One small favor for writers working on the Wrecking Crew going forward, please have them stop mentioning they have fought Thor in every book they appear in. It just gets lame and repetitive, especially after everyone they say it to who isn’t a Norse god kicks their butts. ‘Kay. Thanks. End rant.)

Obviously physically undermatched to take on villains who have tangled with Thor, Spider-Man and Deadpool take a different approach and get by with a little help from the Punisher who has taken using past villains weapons to the extreme in this issue. As ridiculous as the Punisher looks in this issue, it somehow fits with the overall Deadpool tone. Deadpool takes off ahead of Spider-Man and Punisher to face off with Tombstone where he ends up getting his hand bit off Hannibal-style by Tombstone’s viscious pet pigs. From there, Deadpool sets out to prove why he called Tombstone a “Punkass gangsta wannabe”.

This book does a fantastic job of capturing just what people love about the Deadpool character. It is filled with his stereotypical wisecracks and uses the thought balloon conversations he has with himself in happy moderation. There isn’t any overkill from any of the style jokes that sometimes are unbalanced. One of the best “breaking the 4th wall” jokes of the past few years comes in this issue as it isn’t even Deadpool commenting to the reader but instead a reader being told to come down for dinner before it gets too cold. Deadpool also isn’t treated as a complete joke in the issue as well. He shows how intelligent and skilled a fighter he is and doesn’t depend on his wisecracks to get him through the encounter. He proves that he is the second best at what he does to Wolverine.
