Read about halfway. Gorgeous art but the story gets a little messy and kind of boring. I'm going to give it a 3 for now. Might come back and finish it later.

This was pretty awful.

Opening with a terrible Shadowking story with a dumb as fuck twist that made no sense. Then we get right into Apocalypse. And You can tell Kirkman didn't want to write this. Kirkman has been very vocal about his time at Marvel and especially near the end of his time there, and how awful the mandates and forced editorial were So this was for sure shoved into his face to do because Apocalpyse appears and dies within 70 pages...what a useless character in this universe.

On top of that, you have Jean's phoenix story here but it's so...blah. Like it's a literal "Restart" button BUT guess what? There's only one more volume of this series before Ultimatum and they do another restart there so...

Yeah this was shit to put it nicely. Also the art was meh, with faces ugly as can be.

First half is pretty solid, then the last two issues kind of ruined the mood.

So we begin with the two helpers at teen titans, sorry forgot their names, viciously attacked by a huge big dog. In this, the titans decide to investigate what happened. This leads to some cool team-ups and also Robin deciding what he must do, especially on if he wants to do his own thing away from the teen titans for a while. Then the last two arcs deal with finding "new" members of Teen Titans but feel disjointed and not fun.

Overall though I didn't hate this. Felt pretty fun most of it. I think Mckeever has a knack for making some good teen drama, and the characters are well written. The plotting itself though is just okay and the art ranges from really cool moments to a bit sleazy and sexualizing characters.

I think the series missing Robin by the end, Ravenger, and more feels like they cheated themselves on giving us the most entertaining characters. A 3 out of 5.

Deadpool past is revealed to Preston and she is now on the search for his daughter!

Deadpool starts off fairly average here with him hunting down vampires with the help of Dazzler. It's pretty funny at times, and brutal, but it's standard Deadpool fun nothing special. The real story is with Preston finding his daughter and trying to save her. Eventually, Deadpool hears of this and goes to save her as well, going up against Mr. Flagsmasher.

The latter half is a lot stronger with some excellent character moments. Deadpool works really well when he's protecting someone who cares about someone. We even have a surprise return of Evan! The one Deadpool saved in X-Force. I LOVED this part and really the whole last two or three issues. If only the first half was as strong. But overall one of the stronger volumes.

I'll round it from 3.5 to a 4.

Pretty art but the story felt like cliffnotes of the video game. Didn't add much to the world of Horizon (which is top 5 of last generation for me) so a bit of a let down.

Events getting I'm the way of a good story is always a pain.

Deadpool dealing with being a father but also being a good friend to the people he saved lives Kim is great. But then the axis event feels like only getting parts of the story and so missing key events as always. The ending was sad but worked well for the character.

And so it ends...

This was an interesting ending. Deadpool is at a crossroads where he wants to find happiness but can't. After all the terrible things that happened throughout his life, he just doesn't seem happy or fit in anywhere. So he decides to end it and go after the people after him and Omega Red's dumbass shows up and I'll be honest, not a big fan of him.

So it ends as expected. Deadpool is a bit lost on what to do or what he wants. The middle is really zanny where the start and ending are the two best parts of him questioning things. I also still enjoy the artwork a lot, looks great. But the middle with Red just kind of puts the whole story to a halt and wasn't that interested. I will say the jokes though this volume were pretty damn funny.

A 3.5 out of 5.

I'm not a big Deadpool fan.

I like the movies. I mostly like them because Ryan Reynolds is a funny dude. He easily made a character I normally have no interest in, amazing. It helped it was rated R, in the sense, you can show off the full line of jokes while also getting that crazy high-end action.

This is a huge Omnibus, going a little past 1300 pages, and it ranges from good, with a few moments of great for me. The biggest balance for the character is finding his humous side while also giving us some emotional beats. This series does tend to do that at points, even if it isn't perfect.

The start of this series relies heavily on humor. It's not bad but in comparison to the movies, it seems tame. A foul mouth deadpool is not here. Luckily the art saves it because the fight scenes are excellent, high energy, and bloody as hell. As the series goes on we get a much more human Wade, going into something horrible in his past, and now he has to deal with the mess he made.

On top of that I really did enjoy the ending humor. It was far better, and Duggan seemed to get the hang of the foul mouth Deadpool more.

But it does suffer from no major villains that are interesting. I also found too many characters too talkative without anything important to say or even funny. I drifted some pages because honestly got bored at spots.

But overall, even for a person who was NOT a fan of Deadpool I did enjoy my time reading this. Would I say it is mindblowingly awesome? No. But it was fun for what it was with some really great moments here and there.

A 3.5 out of 5.

I didn't know I never finished this series.

I wish I didn't...

Okay it was the worst thing ever it was just bland, like this entire freaking run. There's some good ideas, the start is actually fun with the Titans having to rediscover working together. Having Kyle join the Titans was a actual pretty cool idea. But then nothing happens. They go into this weird DnD type world which is over the top and silly and not fun. Then it just ends with Raven unlocking her powers...yeah this was boring as hell.

This was a okay followup.

You had the team of idiots known as the Thunderbolts working together to take down the skrulls. Everything felt like it was moving at a super hyper speed paced. This seems to always happen when a event comes in the middle of someone's run. Saying that, the character interactions were still pretty fun, especially Norman and Bullseye. But the rest was just decent with a plot that never really went too far or did anything special other than putting Thunderbolts and Norman in a better spotlight saving the world.
