review 1: This Marvel limited series turns the unique humorous qualities of Deadpool to black purposes as a mind-controlled Wade Wilson goes on a murderous rampage against the entirety of Marvel's cast of characters.Writer Cullenn Bunn uses the story arc to invent a number of increasingly gruesome killing scenes, a disturbingly high number of which feature exploding heads. But mercifully the series doesn't do away with the trademark Deadpool wisecracks and fourth-wall breaches. At one point, he is squaring up against Spider-Man, who threatens to kill him, and Deadpool replies "You think they'd let you break character even if you wanted to?". In another memorable exchange, he tells Wolverine that the latter will come back no matter how many times he is killed, because "Your mutant po... morewer isn't regeneration, it's popularity"The best feature of the alternate-reality device is that it allows comic book companies to occasionally provide fresh takes on familiar characters. 'Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe' doesn't rank among the most memorable of such one-off storylines, but read it for the bursts of humour, the star-studded cast (the Marvel Universe, after all) and the killer ending.
review 2: I didn't enjoy this book. It wasn't my choice to read it (it was the book paired with Nextwave for my Graphic Novel Group book club as alternative depictions of comic-book characters) and I pretty much knew by the cover I wasn't going to like it. Yeah, yeah, I judged the book by its cover. To start off with something positive, the drawings are graphic but often spectacular, masterful representations of what the writing was. When I read it, I thought OK, this is just a lazy way of writing off every major character in the Marvel universe, as in, "Oh, you wanna know what kills Thor? READ ON..." As I said in our group, it felt like it was conceived by a 10-year-old and executed by an 8-year-old. We see all of our heroes die by Deadpool's hand in increasingly graphic scenes, and then the ending (SPOILER: he enters the writer's room, where the writers of the comic are all sitting around discussing who he'll kill next, and he kills them instead), just seemed like it had been done so many times before, and stood as a deus ex machina to get Deadpool out of his predicament and end the story. So, leaving it there, I would have given it one star. But then the guy who had recommended it for our group, after most of us had lambasted it, explained the mechanics of Deadpool, something I didn't know going into it. What a complicated character he is, standing neither for good nor evil, just whatever feels right to him at the time. And he said something really interesting: Deadpool, at some point, became aware that he was a fictional construct being written by the actual Marvel writers, that he was nothing but a puppet being led around by strings, and it pissed him off even further. Now, suddenly, that ending seemed brilliant, the only real way he could have ended. And so, despite not liking the book, I'm giving it another star for that ending, which at first I'd dismissed but now I understand.I hate giving a bad review to a book that I wouldn't have picked up anyway, and therefore have no right to review one way or the other, but there it is. less
