Spidey-Pool!This is one of those comics that I sort of thought was funny, but at the same time I'm just sort of glad I finally finished it.Some of the jokes (Wolverine and Storm trying to figure out why everyone was acting like they didn't exist) made me giggle, but a lot of them were the same regurgitated Deapool is gay for Spidey! and chimichanga! shit that seems to be obligatory in every one of their comics. While Isn't It Bromantic, had an actual storyline, Side Pieces is aptly named because...
A bunch of one-off issues that were used as filler because Joe Kelly and Ed McGuinness can't keep up with a monthly schedule. The Scott Auckerman issue where they are making a Deadpool was pretty funny with a bunch of jokes about the comic book movie industry. Then a "flashback" issue from Gerry Duggan and Scott Koblish. I've never felt these flashback issues ever worked as well as their work on the ongoing Deadpool comic. The issue with Penn & Teller was awful. The Christmas issue was an intere...
I read the comic books Spider-Man Deadpool #6-7, #11-12 and #1.MU. Even a Penn and Teller guest appearance does little to lift this to no more than just OK. A case of high expectations influencing how I feel about this series. 5 out of 12
2.5 stars. This is a book made up of all of the filler guest writer/artist stories for this series. It was a huge let down, for the most part. We start with Scott Auckerman's which was just boring when he wasn't elbowing me to laugh at his jokes. Deadpool finds out a film studio wants to make a movie about him so Spidey and Deadpool headed to set. This was full of overdone jokes about the comic book film genre. Including some poorly thought out jokes about Batman v Superman. You can't poke fun a...
I liked the last 3 issues of this collection better than the first, but they were all fun.
Disappointing. Overall these stories felt a little mean-spirited, especially the politically charged old-school parody that pretty much craps all over the original Amazing Spider-man.Penn Jillette guest stars and writes one of the issues....it was pretty bad and I actually do like Penn.
This one really made me laugh. Besides the Penn and Teller issue, I think this one was my favourite volume yet! So many good one liners
Want to see me talk about books? Check out my Youtube Channel: BexnbookxSpider-Man/Deadpool, Volume 2: Side Pieces did not live up to the hype that volume 1 had. It was a overall disappointing experience. Here we are again, with Deadpool and Spider-Man volume 2 did not follow a specific plot point, but five episodes of these two getting up to mischief! With Deadpool and Spider-Man going to Hollywood, a Christmas story, and a few more random tales.ArtworkThe artwork within this volume was all ove...
Cool seeing the comic story about these two from the 60s. Yay for fufilling the two time periods prompt for my pop sugar challenge! Fun stuff on Tarot and mythology too. Deadpool and Spiderman have great chemistry.
I enjoyed this collection much more than the first volume - the humour wasn't as forced, it was less dependent on following other published titles, and it was simply more fun than trying desperately to be wacky and crazy.Good fun, good laugh.
While I liked things about this, as a whole it's so unfocussed. It feels like this collection just existed to combine one shot issues.
A series of one-shots, all entertaining, amusing and irreverent.
It was rather disappointing that this was just a collection of side stories and guest issues, rather than a continuation of the story that was told in volume 1. Indeed, they repeatedly point out that they are not continuing the main storyline, but don't offer much explanation as to why. That being said, this is a relatively high-quality collection of random stories with some great moments of humor and fun.
I never finished this because I was bored. Will think about finishing eventually.
2.5/5 stars
Holy Toledo, bad.Listen, people who don't write comics need a comics-writing buddy to help them write comics. It almost never works. Even really good novelists, essayists, TV writers, all kinds of top notch writers fall flat when it comes to comics. In this volume, it was the classic pitfall: Been There, Done That.When someone hasn't read a shitload of comics, it shows when they do things that they think are cute, and WOULD be cute, but we've seen them. Like, a lot. Many times, many ways, and do...
This collection of comics takes quite a detour from volume one. While it does still feature everyone's favorite friendly neighborhood Spiderman and Deadpool there is no continuous narration of story like in volume one. This volume (two) features five comics that were written by guest authors and illustrators and they are all wildly different stand alones. From a 1960s throwback to Penn and Teller to a Christmas spinoff and more; this collection is on the bizarre side. Some of them tried a little...
This was a real hit-or-miss collection of stand-alone stories featuring the two characters. For whatever reason I found The Ho-Ho Holiday Special! - featuring the vengeful deity Saturn wreaking havoc on Christmas Eve in New York City - the most amusing of the bunch. The opener, Number One on the MAUL Sheet!, with the duo on a Hollywood backlot amidst their big-screen adaptation, also had its moments with inspired digs about comic book characters and the movie business.But then there was Conventi...
