CABLE & DEADPOOL #49 -- Summary & Spoilers!

[Nyssane]

"Wait, I can't hear my own voice! Am I even talking?! My gift to the world! Gone! And it's your fault, you golden-haired, well-toned, gorgeous jungle god jerk!"

The issue opens with Deadpool and Agent X battling over their financial situations. Irene Merryweather interrupts them and hires Deadpool to travel to the Savage Land and find some doo-hickey that Magneto used to use. Apparently, they tried to contact Ka-Zar but he was not to be found. Deadpool agrees to take the job (cute scene between him and a very depressed Irene), and Weasel uses his suit to teleport them to the Savage Land.

They're immediately attacked by a tyrannosaurus rex. Suddenly, a sabretooth tiger pounces on it and kills it (wtf?!). Weasel mentions how Ka-Zar lived his life there yet they're going to die within five minutes. The tiger, obviously Zabu, perks up at the sound of his master's name. Zabu points at Magneto's old citadel, and Deadpool immediately rushes toward it and kicks the door down. Inside is Ka-Zar, with Lorelei and Piper behind him. Ka-Zar tries to kill Deadpool and stabs him in the head with his dagger. He is under Lorelei's spell, and Piper uses his flute to control Zabu, who attacks Bob and Weasel. In a different room, Brainchild schemes with Shanna chained up next to him.

Deadpool wakes up and attacks Ka-Zar again (while Bob sings along with Lorelei, LOL). He tosses him at Lorelei and Piper, which snaps him out of his confusion. He covers Lorelei's mouth so she is unable to sing, but Piper has Zabu attack him and the pair retreat. The group decides to find the polarity engine by splitting up. Brainchild has Barbarus and Amphibius attack Ka-Zar and Zabu, a bunch of dinosaurs surround Bob and Weasel, and tries to find Deadpool on the computers but realizes he's in the sewage pipes (his reasoning is, if Super Mario can do it... LAWL). Bob clutches on to Weasel, who teleports to Deadpool. Weasel searches Brainchild's computer and finds his collection of... um... special files (apparently involving a stegasaurus).

Deadpool goes outside to find a swarm of dinosaurs, Brainchild, Piper, and Shanna. Deadpool manages to teleport the dinosaurs away, but Brainchild is still cocky. Unfortunately, Ka-Zar has freed Shanna and they have Piper. Lorelei suddenly appears on a pterodactyl, allowing Brainchild and Piper some escape. They fly away, but Deadpool shoots their pterodactyl, sending them flying into some growling t-rexes (LOL WHAT? Hopefully Piper's powers will get them out of that jam). Deadpool begins to annoy Ka-Zar, and Weasel realizes Deadpool teleported the huge mass of dinosaurs that Piper summoned... into Manhattan. Cue Ms. Marvel and Thing cameos.

I'm really going to miss this series. I know I say that every month now, but I mean it every month. From the Zabu Lassie moment, Brain child's stash, Deadpool the wannabe Italian plumber, helping eastern european kids worshiping a benevolent god, and venom dinosaurs, this issue had me laughing my ass off.

[Dr. Chaos]

Just got done reading it and...Dinosaur Symbiotes?!

Nicieza, have my man babies.

That actually maybe Brown's idea as Fab only scripted this issue!!

Loincloth!!!

[pariah-1972]

Great issue as always.
Reilly Brown is not the flashiest artist in the world but he gets the job done.
the Mario shout out cracked me up.
:) :)

[Dr. Chaos]

If thats true, my apologies to Brown.

I'm so used to kissing Fabian's ass when he's pulling from the Deadpool goldmine that it's kind of a hard habit to break.

[Trey]

Yeah I'm gonna miss Fab, I loved his TBolts too. There was this rumor that he was gonna work on DC's next weekly.

Yeah that was old-school. forget the Wii, NES all the way!

Loincloth!!!

[dtjunkie]

I'm going to miss this book so much. It's the only funny book I find consistently.... funny.

"... since Cable died"
"He'll be back. Probably once they have a big crossover."

"And teach their children. And worship a benevolent God."

And after shooting the dinosaur to prevent the bad guys from escaping: "You should really try using some guns"

Wherever you go next Fabian I'll be there!

[Dr. Chaos]

And on a sidenote, if Way ditches Weasel and Bob, may god have mercy on his soul.

[worstblogever]

Lorelei: "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO..."


That's... that's what a hypnotic song sounds like... I always thought there would be subliminal messages within it for sexual favors or something... I guess.

[DeadXMan]

Venom Dinos: BRILLIANT!!!!

co sign. my xbox gamertag is bobagentofhydra, i dont want it to be put to complete obscurity just yet.

this was a great issue though. not much else to say....props to Brown and Nicieza for being awesome

Basic working rule of thumb for comics ever since the 1940's:

Anything that involves an incredibly cool visuals like dinosaurs running amok through the streets of Manhattan then turned into alien Venom-symbiotes = ARTIST IDEA.

Anything that involves jungle men in loin cloths and conflicted homoerotic subtext = WRITER.

;-)

Ah, nothing like that homoerotic subtext.

Great issue, Fabes. I can't wait to see the finale.

(And of course, Deadpool poking fun at the Avengers and everybody else next ish!)

Reilly Brown continues to impress. His DP is far more awesomely drawn than Dillon's.

Thanks Fabian! (& Reilly & Jeremy & Skottie)

Issue 49 was great! You and Reilly rocked the house -- and perhaps even more importantly -- you set up the series for an incredible ending.

Symbiote dinosaurs are just an incredibly cool and insane idea.

Knock issue 50 out of the park!

[Omega Alpha]

This series is ending on such a high note. Congrats to Fabian and Reilly and everyone. Dinosymbiotes is cool beyond words.

[timbox]

Another genius issue. Fabian, what are you going to be working on next? Please don't tell us you're going into limbo!

[drwho]

These team up issues I think have really breathed new life into Deadpool and this series. They are funny and a good read like the old days.

[Wade_Wilsons_Tailor]

Great issue, but you can tell Reilly wrote it. Some of moments of funny were reaching and a lil forced. I'm only pointin that out cause I'm bein a over technical douche..

But the 2 parts that had me laughin my ass off were when Deadpool gets to the savage land and one of the first thing he said was "Finally, a chance to kick dinosaur ass." I don't know why, but just reading that and imagining ANYONE say that when they run into a Dinosaur...lol That shit is just comidac gold, plated with more comidac gold. Like his whole life he's been dreaming about beatin s$#% out of dinosaurs or somthin. It could have skipped the whole dialouge on Jeff Goldblum and it still would be one of the funniest Deadpool moments to me lol

And outsmarting Brainchild by goin through the sewer, lol good stuff.

OH YEAH...and shootin the teradactyl(sp) when they were tryin to get away. lol That was more Deadpool gold.

[worstblogever]

What kind of bums me out about this book being cancelled is... once Cable was dead it went from a good book, to a great book. Most of its funniest moments have come since Cable took a dirt nap. (although the original Marvel Girl moment was pretty hilarious.) Fabe really did just hit a stride... in time to see this thing cancelled.

Way should do an okay job... but whether or not he uses Agency X, Bob, Agent of Hydra, or Weasel... no idea. We won't know until we see previews for it.

But at least C&D is going out with a bang... vs. Venom Dinosaurs... the Jurassic Park references and Spidey gags are going to be over the top funny... maybe we'll even see a Spidey cameo, and reflections on Wade throwing Peter Parker off a bridge way back when...

Speakin of Dinosaurs, if you and your company that worked on this series were dinosaurs, you'd be Pwn'anosaurus Rex's

That son of a bitch...ok I'm joining the Fire Joe Q crowd.
