Deadpool may have started life as a supporting character in X-Force, but he’s truly grown into a franchise all his own in the three decades that have followed. That fact has its obvious downsides. Marvel’s insistence on publishing multiple concurrent Deadpool books pretty much nonstop over the past ten years has ensured the character is perpetually in danger of wearing out his welcome. Rather than wiping the slate clean and giving Wade Wilson a fresh start, the latest volume of Deadpool only further contributes to the growing Deadpool fatigue.
While no doubt timed to bank on the excitement surrounding the Dawn of X relaunch, this new series has no connection to that ambitious overhaul of the X-Men franchise. This is pretty much business as usual for Wade. He accepts a mercenary job, things don’t go as planned and quips are dropped and body parts are dismembered with reckless abandon. This first issue does little to break the familiar Deadpool mold, making it a tough sell to all but the most hardcore of readers.
