Llevaba mucho tiempo queriendo empezar a leer hasta el personaje, exactamente desde que salió el primer trailer para la película y dije: vaya, este es uno de esos personaje que a mí me encantan. Así que estuve bastante tiempo buscando por Internet el orden recomendado para empezar a leer a este personaje y todos apuntaban a este, sin embargo siento que le faltaba mucha explicación sobre Wade y otros personajes de su alrededor. De repente me arrojaron ahí en medio del follón y creo que sólo he entendido un 20% (debido a la información que busqué del personaje después de ver el mencionado trailer).

Creo que debido a eso mismo no he logrado disfrutar del todo el cómic, y me he quedado igual que antes de leerlo. El único motivo por el que no le he dado una estrella es que Wade muchas veces hacía unos comentarios que me hacían reír, y por esos comentarios y por lo que me transmite este personaje voy a seguir insistiendo en sus cómics.

This doesn't seem to be a good start to the Deadpool comics. It's really hard to get into if you know nothing about the character, so I'm putting it aside for now looking for another starting point.

This is my first exposure to Deadpool other than his cameo in the X-Men pinball game.

I love it.

The character, especially early, is not necessarily one to like. He's the merc with the mouth for a reason -- all mouth, anger, and self-interest in a red and blue suit.

But as he develops, we see hints of a more heroic figure, one willing to make sacrifices, one embarrassed by his physical form, one who is considering new paths.

This book is a drop in the bucket of Wade's overall story arc obviously, but it's a turn that leaves me wanting to read more. What else could a comics fan ask?

lots of fun, and since Deadpool spans a lot of time peppered on other comics, it was an interesting trip down retro comics lane.

The disjointed flow of superhero comics from one issue to the next confuses me so, so much. They never seem to be in a particular order, especially one that makes sense to newbs. A lot of backstory seems to be missing, or else they’re assuming every reader is entrenched in this world so backstory is unnecessary. This is volume 1 of a classics series centered on Deadpool, but apparently I’m meant to be familiar with past exploits and run-ins with bad guys. I’m so confused. A friend recommended volume 2 as a good starting place. Now I’m thinking I should have followed his advice. But I’m stubborn and think things should follow proper alphanumeric order. Apparently not in the wide world of superhero comics. (My apologies, Tim.) Onward!
