There was one problem with this book. It was to short. It needed one more issue, and no filler issue. Like come on I don’t know why authors think filler issues are a good idea. There’s a rare chance they ever are TRULY as good as the main story arcs.
Nothing to laugh out loud about but entertaining enough, even if the last issue has mediocre artwork.
Just wanted to catch up on Hit-Monkey before the Hulu animated series starts.
A legendary gun-for-hire is in New York City, killing targets and making Spider-Man nervous. Also Deadpool’s in town to have a team-up for shits and giggles and eat tons of hot dogs for the same reason. But if this super-assassin isn’t the Merc with a Mouth, who could it be? It’s a monkey, but not just any monkey: Hit-Monkey! Deadpool: Monkey Business is so much silly fun! I’ve never heard of Hit-Monkey before but he’s a great, cute character who manages to brew up some challenging carnage for S...
ABSOLUTE RATING: {3+/5 stars}STANDARDIZED RATING: <3/5 stars>
The Merc with a Mouth and Spider-Man team up in this irreverent as you might expect story (at least for three of the issues featured here).I don't think I'll ever get used to any of those hyper-muscled art styles so common in Marvel's more violent, "adult" franchises and stories (i.e., Deadpool, Venom, Max). I am well aware they don't use those kinds of styles in all of their more adult themed (and, that they use it in plenty of their teen-focused) works, but this isn't a case of getting used to...
Deadpool decides to visit Spiderman in New York city to learn how to be a good guy from one of the best. Peter runs into Deadpool without his Spidey suit on and doesn't say anything. Later on when one of the shops Peter frequented is shot, he assumes it was Deadpool. It isn't until Deadpool gives a solid alibi that Superman believes that it wasn't him. We soon learn that a Monkey, whose also a hitman, is in town killing off other Hitmen... and Deadpools next. Spiderman reluctantly tries to keep
Okay so it might be the spideypool shipper in me, but I genuinely think this is some of the best content in the 2008 run so far. Deadpool wants to be more than he is, wants to be a hero - that is a decent motivator, way better than anything in vol. 1 or 2 of this run. The end of the team up has a great moment where spidey says to DP that he wants to be loved for being the good guy rather than actually be the good guy, and DP doesn't understand the difference. That's good stuff. Too bad it's imme...
Brilliant! Loved the banter between Deadpool and Spidey!
I'm ashamed at laughing about a story with a hitman monkey as much as I did. Side note: Interesting to know that Reed Richards can't stand Deadpool either.
Easy read, kind of childish for a comic about Deadpool and Spider-Man going up against a monkey assassin.
This is probably my favorite Deadpool collection to date. That has a lot to do with Hit Monkey. And Deadpool trying to explain to Spiderman that he is NOT MAKING UP Hit Monkey.If you can get through this without giggling, you have NO sense of humor, and should be SHOT, repeatedly, with a large-caliber weapon, which oh, look! I happen to have right here...And Thor has pretty, pretty girl hair.:P Deadpool is the man. About the only thing this good is the "Marvel/DC" youtube videos with Deadpool vs...
