Deadpool 250

This issue is so big, I though it deserved it's own post! There are a few different sections in the issue so I'll break up the review.

The Death of Deadpool (#45)
Very fun issue with loads of violence and humor. I didn't like this issue as much as I have the past 4 or so, mostly because of the focus on action over Deadpool's antics. His death doesn't come when you think it will and that makes the issue exciting till the end.

Shiklah's Catching Up
The wife of Deadpool learns about American pop culture for a trivia contest in this amusing little short. Shiklah is a fun counterpart to Deadpool and this showcases her perfectly. 

The Family S.H.I.E.L.D.
Drawn as if it were a 90's sitcom, Preston is taking care of Taco Dog, a gift from Deadpool. Pretty funny issue considering Taco Dog is basically a Deadpool Pup. It also has a scene identical to one from Deadpool 45.

What Do We Want? Apocalypse! When Do We Want It? Now!
Deadpool is letting Evan, a young clone of Apocalypse, crash with him for while. Evan proceeds to tell a funny story about "robbing a bank". Watching Deadpool try to parent is golden. 

The Thwipster and the Quipster Battle the Hipsters!
Spider-Man and Agent Adsit battle werewolves. Moving on.

All About the Benjamins
The naked ghost of Ben Franklin teams up The Thing to take a villain using dance music to try to take over Philadelphia. You can't make this up. Haha

Parents: The Meeting
What happens when a magic person goes on a date and has to meet his girlfriends parents. Some pretty funny stuff, especially considering how blunt the father is. 

Deadpool Roasts the Marvel Universe
Howard the Duck hosts the Roast of Deadpool in front of the entire Marvel Universe. Why is everyone there? Deadpool has the Inifinity Gauntlet. Hilarity ensues. 

Overall Grade: A-
