Ratings and reviews

The book is good, but like other Marvel Now editions on Android, the page breaks are wrong. There are useless "placeholder" pages that seem to be meant to help with this ... but they don't. Two-page panels force you to flip back and forth between pages, which is pretty annoying - and you don't get to see the full image, which was the point in the first place.

I just finished reading the Daniel Way Deadpool comic books... so I'm obviously comparing these two different series.... Although I am only reading the first of this series I find the jokes are kinda boring and just wayy too much of Deadpool's bubbles are jokes... If i base the rest of the series off this first book I might actually just drop it? I am so disappointing because Deadpool comic books are all I've been reading this past month so not having new material kinda sucks... also, this is my personal opinion but I liked the art wayyyyy more in the previous series (sorry?). Overall the comics arent BAD... they just aren't what I was expecting after reading the previous series which I absolutely LOVED. Also, they started off the series with undead presidents? Which again, not really into :/ If you're into 'not-so-witty' jokes one after the other then this might be just the comic book for you :) If not, skip it.

Tons of exploding guts/blood, stupid jokes on nearly every page, and a heartwarming ending that will make you feel all tingling inside (if tingling last more than 48 hours, seek a physician).
