As a service, I provide a concise summary:
* No, I actually didn't.
Also, too: Go see Deadpool. It's juvenile and raunchy and everything a traditional superhero movie isn't.

Deadpool? Isn't that a Rob Liefeld title? Did the movie feature a lot of pouches?
ReplyDeleteYes Deadpool is a creation of that horrible hack Liefeld (I knew where that first link before I clicked -- it's a classic takedown).
DeleteIt's amazing the character survived his horribly-rendered beginnings in New Mutants #98 (seriously, click the link. It's fucking awful).
What's great about Deadpool though is what the new, much, much better writers/illustrators have done with him. They also make fun of Liefeld all the time. In one issue there's a flashback from the present and they show some old Liefeld artwork -- Deadpool says "Where are my feet!"
And yes, the movie references/makes fun of the pouches too.
Seriously, it's a great movie -- I'm not one to go spend money at theaters in general, but I'm actually considering going a second time. It's that fun.
