No Fair!!!
He's wearing Marvel Girl's panties. That ,in itself, should make him X-Board worthy.

That's interesting. A good while back I asked why Deadpool threads were usually in this forum since he wasn't a mutant and was no longer running around with Cable. A few people, including one of the mods, gave me reasons as to why, which I can't remember now, but they did seem to firmly believe he did belong under the X-Men umbrella.
What changed?

I sent the following correspondence to the appropriate moderators when the new Deadpool series started. The lack of response clearly indicates agreement with my philosophies. I'm happy to have cleared this matter up for everyone.
Dear Mr. Cronin and Mr. Deleted,
I think we can all agree that Deadpool threads belong in the X-Books forum, correct?
He's an X-Character, a product of the Weapon X program, an honorary X-Man with his own X-Men costume. He hangs out with X-Men, fights enemies of the X-Men, and the editor for his new book is Axel Alonso.
I think the answer is obvious. I expect this policy to be strictly enforced. Thank you for your time.
Love Always,

Any thoughts on how Deadpool is going to take the news that Siryn is about to have a baby?

Deadpool has been the standout character in Uncanny X-force to me. Especially issue 7. Remender really writes the character well.
Too bad the same can't be said for Way on the main Deadpool series. Despite that the book has actually had a few pretty good moments, it's mostly, especially lately, a testament to what a poor writer Way is. I wish they would replace him. With Remender.
Too much to ask?

Hey, look what I found. An appreciation thread for my #1 favorite Marvel character. :cool:
Deadpool is awesome and yes, he belongs here as even Marvel confirmed he belongs in the X-Men faction with the X-Men Heroic Age Shot.
Love this panel as my #1 and #3 favorite Marvel characters share some props.

Wade got into it with Fantomex in this month's X-Force.
The fact that I don't like Fantomex and that Wade thinks exactly the way I do about him makes it even easier.
It was funny that he was the one that saved the day. Reminded me of the 5 Ronin series recently. :tongue: :biggrin:

I feel like it has been coasting a bit with a lot of guest stars and i would like to see Way develop more of a rogues gallery for him.
Reminder could do a fantastic job from the looks of things on Uncanny X-force and i'm just glad we have him in there cause logically he doesn't really fit and it seems strange that he is the voice of reason in this crowd which is really saying something.

He does logically fit and it shouldn't be that strange that he is the voice of reason. The way Remender writes Deadpool is how he should be written. That's the real Deadpool. It's like Remender has just read Joe Kelly's version and ignored all others.
Daniel Way hasn't got a clue.

Daniel Way hasn't got a clue.What i mean by "doesn't fit" is he is technically not a mutant and he has never really fit in or joined any other X-teams.
And yes it is strange cause Deadpool has always been just a little bit crazy.
And yes Daniel Way's version is different from Joe Kelly but that doesn't necessarily mean it's bad .

I just love, how's DeadPool is written in X-force (actually I start reading it mostly for him) not that his on book isn't fun, but it lacks (at least for me) that undefined something that makes DeadPool such a special character. I rally like the scene where Wade were feeding Archangel it was... touching

That's such a stupid issue. Why was Big Bertha even there? And Blind Al, the closest thing Deadpool's ever had to a mother in comics, tries to kill him... with a machine gun? Even the Last time Deadpool and Taskmaster got together it was on "good" terms.
It just makes no sense. It was all a ham fisted plot device that came out of nowhere, suddenly disappeared once it's purpose had been served, and ruined some Deadpool continuity along the way for good measure. Typical Way. I hate to be the this guy, i tried not to be for the longest time, but Way needs to go. Beyond just his shortcomings with the character, he's a horrible storyteller general.

I Will Give You Bertha but
Taskmaster has memory issues now, its not hard to believe that He forgot he was on good terms with deadpool
in fact in his mini it was revealed tasky bull shits his way through most arguments with people he dose not remember
It probably went down like this
Gomez: "i hear you have probloms with Deadpool"
Tasky: "uh... yeah, hate the Prick!"
Gomez: "lets Go Kick his Ass!"
Tasky: "sure...."
Al Was only Wades mother cause he kept her hostage For years while torturing her its not hard to believe why she was there
It just makes no sense. It was all a ham fisted plot device that came out of nowhere, suddenly disappeared once it's purpose had been served, and ruined some Deadpool continuity along the way for good measure. It didn't really mess up any continuity, and it wasn't the type of plot that could really be drawn out
Gomez Went around gathering People who have A Bone to Pick with Deadpool, The point [and it was a good one] so that Deadpool has a Long track record of making his friends lives miserable was a simple but interesting
I am really looking forward to wade running around trying to get people to kill him in the next arc
Lord Bravery
05-02-2011, 12:08 AM
Blind Al wasn't just his hostage. When Deadpool set her free... she refused to leave. She loves Deadpool, as a mother.
Like Fist of Goa said, just further proof that Way doesn't understand the Deadpool character or his mythos. Or even worse... doesn't actually care about it.
I've been saying it since the Hit Monkey arc... this guy has got to go. This series will never be great under Way's pen. It will just be a silly, pointless, meandering mess, that is a guilty pleasure, at best. Instead of an actual great piece of work.
I look at what Remender and Lapham are doing with the character and it makes me sad. These guys write a great Deadpool. They get the character. And they are genuinely brilliant comic book writers. But neither of them are on the flag ship Deadpool title.

Way Dose Get the Character, he Gets the Self loathing, the self Destructive behavior, the Vanity, Selfishness, and Despair
The fact the next arc is gonna be about Wade Literally trying to kill him self should prove this
Also Lapham? Deadpool max is garbage
Lord Bravery
05-02-2011, 12:45 AM
Deadpool MAX is garbage? Laughable, coming from someone who likes Daniel Way's series. David Lapham is so far ahead of Daniel Way in terms of comic book writing ability it's a no contest. Issue 3 of Deadpool MAX, the one with a neo nazi Baron Zemo, is better than anything Way has ever done... ever.
Deadpool MAX is one of the best books Marvel is putting out, by quite a margin.
Daniel Way's run has not been great. It has not been everything you'd want from a Deadpool book. It's a mess with maybe 8 good issues out of nearly 40.
He rehashes what other writers have done with the character before. The whole, trying to be a hero thing. But then, he just goes "well Deadpool gets bored easily! he's bored of trying to be a hero!" Oh that is some great storytelling there!
And funny? There has been a handful of genuinely funny moments in the entire series. The rest of it is immature comedy that is barely any different from fart jokes. It's trash. It's trashy humour, it's trashy storytelling, it's just... trash.
Way just can't stay consistent with anything he does in this series. Deadpools trying to be a hero? Well why did he just shoot that guy in the face because his Taco got burnt?
See, it's stuff like that. Way thinks "Oh this will be funny! HAR HAR HAR!" then just throws it into the story without thinking about it. It's scattershot. Throw a bunch of shit at the wall and see if it sticks. That is Way's entire Deadpool run summed up.
And he might touch on the self loathing, self destruction aspects of Deadpool... but his execution of those ideas is severely lacking, they're not done in an intelligent or subtle way. And he never follows them up. His whole run is a disjointed mess. The only thing Daniel Way has brought to the Deadpool table is the annoyingly contrived extra monologues (which popped up with no explanation) and the whole Pool-O-Vision thing.
A Deadpool book should be crazy and fun. But it should also be somewhat intelligent and have some subtleties. Daniel Way's run has neither of those things.
Also, I dislike Way's Deadpool dialogue. You look back at his old books, the Joe Kelly run or the Gail Simone run... look at his speech bubbles. Filled up with irrevent banter. Deadpool would say about 200 words in mid air. He'd be gabbing on about the benefits of an electric oven over a gas oven whilst slaughtering a bunch of nameless goons. That was Deadpools thing. Way doesn't do any of that. His books take about 2 minutes to read. There is barely any Deadpool dialogue in them, apart from where he's talking to his other narration boxes in annoying back and forths.
DarkFalcon
05-02-2011, 05:12 AM
little yellow boxes become to much of DeadPool trademark to get rid of them, Besides, they've actually evolved along the way. Remember DeadPool complaining about failing first person narration in "Cable and DeadPool" , and then somewhere along the line he was wondering whether he talking with the telepath (I think it was during his fight with Wolverine).
And DeadPool MAX has much more "deadpoolishness" in DeadPool, although it is AU than his main series, if you get my meaning. Of course Ways "DeadPool" still has it's moments, not to mention it's madly funny for most of the time, but thats all to it.

i've enjoyed most of Way's stuff... but I agree that it is time for something different. I'll say it again, Deadpool needs to go back to being more of a badass merc, and less of a clown. Some of the worst DP stories are the ones where he is completely incompetent (Merc with a Mouth). The thing that Way too often forgets is that Deadpool can go toe-to-toe with the big guns like Wolvie and Sabretooth. I think its clear that the fans would LOVE Remender to take over... Fab Nic would be great as well.

I love how u Hate Deadpool being written as incompetence then say u want Fabian Nicieza i think he was the worst offender of this
Way has had Deadpool, Pwn the Thunderbolts, Bullseye, Vampires, a Living fricking moon, Steve Rogers, Wolverine, a Lobo expy, And A Super skrull, Way is just fine in this category if u ask me
Remender's Deadpool is a little Overrated imo, the Intentionally unfunny jokes are annoying [Deadpool Shouldn't need to "Try" to be funny] and just cause he writes him well in a team book [that has an Entirely different feel then a deadpool book should] Doesn't mean he is by default the guy meant to write his ongoing

Deadpool does try to be funny. His humour is a defense mechanism. It's how Deadpool deals with the tragedy that is his life. Instead of being an emo and crying about it, he laughs about it. And he uses it to deflect from the fact that really, he's a bit of a douche bag.

I understand the deep physiological reasons, but i dont thing straight up telling a joke is a good way to depict Wade's brand of humor
this is from the first Deadpool comic i ever read

The art isn't terrible. Kyle Baker is an amazing artist. It's just not your usual superhero art. And it shouldn't be.
And just another excuse to get another Deadpool title on the shelves?!?
The book is an indie book at heart, it wouldn't look out of place at Vertigo. Put it this way, you don't put creators like David Lapham and Kyle Baker on a book if all you are after is money. It's art. Lapham and Baker are artists. Deadpool MAX is more than a Deadpool book with nudity, profanity and more blood. If that is all you can see in the book then sorry, you just don't get it.
Again, issue 3 with Baron Zemo is amazing and proves this book is more than just juvenile violence and nudity.
And Writers Rehash aspects of characters all the time, not only that, Deadpool Is Self Destructive, this has been a major part of him since Joe Kelly, it makes sense that through all of his years of trying that he would still struggle with being a better person
Yea i know that. Doesn't mean Way is approaching in a good way.
You apparently missed the point

Not at all. Joe Kelly and Gail Simone's humour was much more intelligent and less goofy. Fabian Nicieza was the one who introduced all the goofiness in Cable and Deadpool. Making jokes about Bea Arthur and Chimichangas all the damn time.
again ur missing the point, Deadpool Tries to be a better person but in the end he Fails because of shit like that
I know that. But that is not how Way plays it. He thinks it would be funny if Deadpool shoots someone because his Taco got burnt. That's it. He threw that in there even though it makes absolutely no sense with the story.
Bull shit now i know your not actually reading it, Way Doesn't "touch" on those aspects their a running theme in the book, They are always there, Deadpools Fight/Conversation with Steve Rogers is a perfect Example
The fight with Rogers was good. But it's few and far between. It maybe an ongoing theme in the book, doesn't mean it's well executed. Ideas and concepts are only good if they are executed well.
You do realize Deadpool is Clinically insane, right
That's the thing, he's not totally insane. Way plays up this aspect when originally Deadpool wasn't completely bonkers. He's crazy yea, but he also pretends he is more crazy than he is, to excuse his sometimes despicable nature. He's a sociopath, pretending to be more insane than he really is.
I Hate the "mid air have an entire Conversation" BS, that was one of the worst aspects of 90s Comics, I'll Take the snappy one liners and conversations with his own fractured Psyche
So you prefer Daniel Way's dialogue to Joe Kelly's? Really?

The art isn't terrible. Kyle Baker is an amazing artist. It's just not your usual superhero art. And it shouldn't be.
And just another excuse to get another Deadpool title on the shelves?!?
The book is an indie book at heart, it wouldn't look out of place at Vertigo. Put it this way, you don't put creators like David Lapham and Kyle Baker on a book if all you are after is money. It's art. Lapham and Baker are artists. Deadpool MAX is more than a Deadpool book with nudity, profanity and more blood. If that is all you can see in the book then sorry, you just don't get it.
Again, issue 3 with Baron Zemo is amazing and proves this book is more than just juvenile violence and nudity. it dosent really even have that, and indie feel or not, marvel thinks they can slap Deadpool on any thing and people will buy it, I dropped max after the 4th issue
Not at all. Joe Kelly and Gail Simone's humour was much more intelligent and less goofy. Fabian Nicieza was the one who introduced all the goofiness in Cable and Deadpool. Making jokes about Bea Arthur and Chimichangas all the damn time. Gail's Run was plenty goofy and had Masturbation jokes and the like,
I know that. But that is not how Way plays it. He thinks it would be funny if Deadpool shoots someone because his Taco got burnt. That's it. He threw that in there even though it makes absolutely no sense with the story.But that's consistent with deadpool, he is crazy and his crazy ass psyche holds tacos sacred, that's not some thing Way came up with exclusively
The fight with Rogers was good. But it's few and far between. It maybe an ongoing theme in the book, doesn't mean it's well executed. Ideas and concepts are only good if they are executed well. But its no far between its their through almost every arc,

So Deadpool made it to 31 in IGNs top 100. Which, is ridiculously too high. But, this quote really sums up the character.
But there is depth to this Merc With a Mouth. His humor is a coping mechanism that masks a deeply sad and lonely man.
That's why Daniel Way doesn't get the character. Deadpool is an asshole, he's a clown... but deep down he's completely broken and he has a heart. Way's Deadpool has no heart. He's just an asshole.

He would be a difficult character to write and I think that's reflected in some of the titles. When done right though, damn it's funny. He needs a writer that can write comedy but not just one juvenile joke after another. There's not a lot that can do that well.
There's always going to be a cynical crowd that hates the character. Deadpool gets a lot of hate and it's definately not for everybody. But anybody that doesn't take superheroing too serious and wants a laugh, he's great. Some of the runs have made me lol and there's not a lot of comics that have done that.
Marvel has milked the popularity but that seems to be slowing down now. He can definately support his own book and the cameos in other titles fill that comic relief role nicely. In a way he's taken over that job from Spider-Man.

Look at the issue before he heads to San Fransisco, ,His fight with steve Rogers, His Interaction with Ghost rider,hell even his banter with spider man and other Specific Scenes through the entire run [Beating to death the skrull scientist, getting really excited over havign a date then getting really depressed when she runs away, that huge plot just to get a measure of acceptance from Cyclops, Shooting those mercs that saved them because they killed some one innocent], Look at when deadpool Showed Up in Wolverine origins, Remember when he completely told wolverine off?

No, there is no heart. He is an asshole. As proved in the Las Vegas arc where he completely stitched up Weasel for... why did he do it again? Oh yea, because it was funny...
Give me an example of Deadpool actually being a genuinely good person. How is beating a Skrull to death any indication of depth or heart? How is his fight with Steve Rogers any indication of heart? He was just pissed off about people using him. The Ghost Rider thing? That was a terrible, terrible filler issue, and didn't actually add anything to the character. And what thing about the date? You mean in the Tiger Shark story? Seriously? That was a throwaway line highlighting the fact that he's crazy and has voices in his head and he wasn't depressed after.
Funnily enough the best Way has ever written Deadpool is in Wolverine Origins.

No, but Way is the guy who thinks "Hey, let's just throw a load of random shit in there for no reason". I don't care if Deadpool holds taco's as sacred. The story was about Deadpool trying to become a better person... so he shouldn't be shooting people in face for completely pointless reasons.
But its no far between its their through almost every arc,
And almost every arc isn't executed well.
and way works that in, The hole "method to his madness" ways favorite deadpool plot seed "wade dose some thing funny in random, it ends up being a important later"
You've never heard of "chekov's gun" have you? It's a literary device. Wiki it if you have to.
When EVERY.SINGLE.STORY uses that same device... it's poor writing. Every single one of Deadpools stories by Way has a "chekov's gun". It got old about 20 issues a go. Way can't mix things up. All the arcs have the same structure.
The Vegas arc is a great Example of what you just said
The Vegas arc is a great example of Deadpool being a completely heartless asshole for no real reason.

i would agree with the Rogues Gallery comment... Kelly tried to build up T-Ray to be his arch-nemesis. However, T-Ray is one of the worst characters ever created.

a few weeks ago I read the Wade Wilson's War TPB... and I REALLY enjoyed it. Not to slam the other DP work being done, but this was really a stand out. Jason Pearson's art was perfect for the violent nature of the book, and Duane Swierczynski is the best there is at nailing characterizations of 90's X-characters (DP, Domino, Cable, etc.) This guy needs to be first (or Remender?) in line when Way leaves the main book.
I am a bit biased, however, because my favorite Deadpool stories usually involve Domino and are merc-based (not DP in space, DP in circus, etc.)

Siryn
09-21-2011, 09:21 PM
I'm pretty sure it started in his first mini, The Circle Chase, and that's when they introduced the idea of him having cancer and such (I think). Plus, he was almost destroyed by some robot that was programmed to get rid of anything "dangerous" or "immoral," but he tells the robot he wants to change or something and gets spared. And Copycat sacrificed her self to save him in that issue, too.
Then he befriends Siryn in another mini, Sins of the Past, which makes him seem a lot more heroic. I mean, he went out of his way to help her/her Dad and they're both "good" guys. And his first series, with Joe Kelly, made him seem pretty heroic. Or at least like someone that was trying desperately to be that way.
But I agree, judging by his first appearances in X-Force he was just the crazy, psycho killer.

I remember when Deadpool first appeared in X-Force he was a psychotic killer/ villian. How in the world and when did he become a hero ???Well, the in-story version is that he's trying to become a better person thanks to the influence of various heroes (namely Cable). The RL version is that as he became more and more popular, Marvel had to adjust him so he wouldn't have quite as negative an effect on "young impressionable minds". Similar to how Logan stopped smoking, etc.
Frankly he kinda sucks now and is merely an over-saturated annoying douche. A far cry from his epic badassery of yester year.
Meehl
09-22-2011, 03:00 AM
He was created during a very poor writing period of the X-men that was fun and actiony but completely vacant of any substantive story telling. It was like the Vin Diesel era of Marvel. Everyone was bigger, badder, and punch-you-in-the-face-ish. Cable was introduced as a mysterious guy who carries large guns and punches people, Sabretooth becomes a main bad guy because this is essentially the only atmosphere he fits in with, etc. Guys got drawn on steroids, even skinny people like Forge and Banshee. All the girls were injecting steroids into their tits and not wearing clothes for the most part. Deadpool was essentially Spiderman's personality + assassin + punch-you-in-the-face-ness. That was all he was because that's all the era was about.
Once the era ended, they began exploring his character more. They changed him from cold-blooded assassin to mercenary for hire. They also started writing him as the biggest loser ever, the guy that everything goes wrong all the time...he'd be making jokes while bleeding out, that kind of thing. Eventually he starts being written as completely insane due to the level of trauma he endures.

Funny you mention that. I had a conversation with someone not too long ago who said he hated Deadpool solely for that reason. People need to get over that, especially since he no longer resembles Deathstroke, aside from a slightly similar looking costume. Hell, I think their similarities have been lampshaded in the Deadpool comic.

Many thanks buddy :)
Yes, I hope so too.
But the footage so far looks good.
And hey, Psylocke ;)

You're welcome!
Some of the footage does look very good. But some of the information that's coming out makes me very apprehensive. For instance, it appears that the writers are going for a very over-the-top, wackadoo, insane, obnoxious, horndog perv Deadpool. Essentially, the Daniel Way version. Now while it's true he is and to a certain extent has always been all of those things, it sounds like the developers are cranking those characteristics up tenfold. I'm concerned that it will be way too much (even for hardcore Deadpool fans) and fail, especially if the game play isn't top notch. We'll see. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for the best.
I'm glad Psylocke and Death are in this. I hope Siryn and Outlaw show up too.

The Daniel Way version talked like an internet hipster which yeah there was a bit of that in the trailer.

I'm actually enjoying Killistrated so far. But I'm in to meta type humor and literature, so perhaps I'm a little biased.

Sounds like they mixed Duke Nukem with Jim Carey.

I don't blame you. Me? I'll probably get it, unless the reviews are overwhelmingly negative.
The trailer does make the game look fun and promising, but I'm not 100% sold. . . . I'm cautiously optimistic. If the non-stop and over-the-top silliness is as relentless as it is in the trailer, it could be too much for some---even hardcore Deadpool fans. Let's hope it has top notch game play and story.

I have it pre-ordered. Like X-Men Origins:Wolverine, I'll buy it because it's a Wade Wilson/Deadpool appearance. Like shibori said, I think it's best for long time Deadpool fans to approach this game cautiously optimistic. If High Noon lives up to their game play expectations, I'll be able to tolerate the silliness for the most part.

Also, (sorry for the double post), but the next Super Power Beat Down is Batman vs. Deadpool. You can vote for the winner here: http://superpowerbeatdown.com/SPBD.html
If the voting is close, I'll be very impressed.

I wonder if Rogue's going to get one of those fancy bios like the rest of the cast.
I'm actually not surprised- I spotted her in concept art.
