Pants24's Profile

I swear, it's like people see that Duggan writes Deadpool, immediately write him off, and critique his work unjustly. Deadpool has been great and his run will go down as one of, if not the best run, in the character's history. But this isn't a Deadpool review. This is an Analog review. This book had humor, action, and gave readers a solid amount of depth into who the main character is. Not only t hat, some questions were answered in the first issue without giving too much of the story away, which is much more than can be said for a great many of comics these days. Some don't give any answers until the end of the first arc. This is O'Sullivan's first series doing full interiors, I believe. His story telling is pretty clean and his figures are fairly unique. He's not a cookie cutter artist, that's for sure. I thought this was a great start to what could be a really fun and dark series.more

Awesome issue. I love it when Wade's intelligence and humor are on full display. He makes a fool of Cap.

I also love it when a "critic" gives an action comic a low rating because "it's standard action." What does that even mean? How do these fucktards honestly get recognized as critics?

Hola, mi gente! I had to come in and review the final issue!

Planet Stronk is under assault by La Legion, which is spanish for The Legion! (What a boring name!) -- and of course America decides to try something dangerous (not just for her) to fight them off (Is Gabby aware of the term Unintentionally Unsympathetic?)

So, America wants to power up by leeching some energy from t his semi-sentient crystal that came out of Planet Stronk's butthole... and she let La Legion towards the crystal, and now is upset la Legion is trying to leech the crystal... idiota! Also, Gabby's spanglish continues to be terrible.

It's actually hilarious that the redhead fuertona can't handle how much of a Mary Sue America actually is -- also Grandma named her wolves after film directors, but one of them is spaniard, not latinamerican (failsauce!) -- furthermore, any self-respecting abuela would hit you with a chancla if you called her vieja... and America, can you stop flirting with every lesbian ever?

At least, America somehow manages to solve a problem without punching, so character development? Although it begs the question why America is able to take a diplomatic route with chupacabra aliens, but her first instinct is to punch whites? (oh yeah, its written by Gabby).

Stacey Lee's art is good for the most part, but boy, the writing... it's what brought down the whole series... The ideas in the series as a whole were not bad tbh, but the scripting and dialogue were very weak.

In any case...

PRESS F TO PAY RESPECTS
THE END

One team is at the North Pole, and Betsy, among others, is sleeveless. That's how a lot of his comic went. As if someone forgot the details.

I was having a lot of trouble getting into the story presented in this arc. After reading this issue I am starting to come around. It still has a feeling like Deadpool is a supporting player in his own book as Cable takes the lead. Some of Deadpool's humor feels a little forced. Those moments are far less distracting this time around. The time travel tale takes the book in a science fiction direct ion that felt a more risky story to tell for Deadpool. There are also moments of humor that help mask the forced moments. I was most surprised by the emotional moment as Cable reflects on his hopes and fears of his future. It may not be an issue I would call a must read, but the issue is strong enough to make me think it is a series worth hanging with.more

This was well written and the art continues to amaze, but it's starting to veer away from why I was interested in this book in the first place. I thought The Joker went straight and would legitimately outsmart the people and take down Batman. He's still a villain just more clearheaded. He's still overly obsessed with Batman and still doing bad things to take him down, just in a different way. I gu ess I was just expecting something a little different based off the first issue. It's kind of like what they are doing with Norman Osborn over at Marvel. more

Who is the hero of this story?

Concept is still good, execution is still lacking. As time goes on, Sean Gordon Murphy will hone his writing skills, but they're not quite there yet. Don't think too while reading the series and you'll have a fun time.

Overall solid book. Love how insane Moon Knight is. Some of the dialogue felt a bit clunky, and I'm not the biggest fan of the color palette for the early pages of the book. Still, nice to see Moon Knight do some actual ass kicking.

The reuniting of Richard And Peter gave this a buddy cop feel that I thought was pretty great. It made me want to see Richard make his way into the Guardians films even more. Another fun and surprising relationship is Gamora and Scott Lang as teammates in the field. The interactions are delightful. The end reveal also had me saying out loud "What is going on with that?" as I am sure Duggan intende d. While the All New Guardians of the Galaxy start felt stronger, the direction the title is taking is still exciting. The art does a great job of scale and direction. The action displayed nicely. Some of the character designs did not grab me particularly in the menace of the hoard attacking Scott and Gamora, but still worked. The only thing that I would like to see more of is cosmic environment. I also wonder if Duggan has no idea what to do with Groot at this point. Still this is a strong title that is progressing nicely.more

Deadpool becomes something of a supporting cast member in his own book as Cable and Stryfe try to continue their feud. That is too bad. While I appreciate the fact that Duggan is trying to create humor with as much insanity as he can create stacked on top of each other, there is nothing really clever or of substance here. It is the who has the bigger stick game escalating to a nuclear missile stri ke. The one thing that worked for me was the humor. Duggan has a bit of fun mocking his own story and characters that worked. The art is over the top with colors that are bright and stand out. This made sense for me at times but it lacks detail that could have enhanced some of the visuals. Combined this title definitely falls under the category of fun if that is what you are looking for. If you are looking for more there are better places to look. Duggan does a much better job in my opinion on Guardians where there is fun but also a bit more weight to the events. There are clear stakes that give the violence and abnormality purpose. Deadpool seems to be unclear on its purpose at that really drags it down for me. It is an easy and fun read so if you are not burnt out on Deadpool yet I would give it a chance.more

Better than first issue, but still It's too much different world than mainstream to ground my suspensiof of disbelief. Twist with Harley was stupid. THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE IN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP! And what's up with the ending?
