Deadpool Classic Volume 5 Paperback – 31 May 2011

It’s fun and interesting to read up on the past of the story of Wade Wilson (Deadpool) and the hi-Jenkins he gets into. And how the character developed.

My son really loves reading these graphic novels. Perfect gift

Pros: Its Deadpool by Joe Kelly... Its the best Deadpool writing you are going to get. So get it. In a time befire Deadpool became a sad boring clown and actually had some depth.Cons: The book is a little thin, I expected at least a couple more issues to be inuded for the price point. Had I not already owned the first 4 Classic volumes, I would have just gotten the Joe Kelly Omnibus, its actually cheaper.

Deadpool is going crazier than usual since killing the Messiah. Monty thinks it is ALL the killings he has done and hid conscience. But Deadpool has a "shrink" friend Dr. Bong who has a huge yellow bell for a head. Then we find out Hellhouse is now owned by T-Ray who is back and brought Deadpool's wife back from the dead to torture Deadpool. We learn all about her and Deadpool before Weapon-X and all that. Bullseye is hired to kill her and him and Deadpool fight. But Deadpool's wife is a tough lady herself. T-Ray has all kinds of torture and mind games for Wade who uses a cartoon to get out of it. In this story we see Wolverine, Lady Death, and Deadpool's time as a Sumo Wrestler, and a mini-Deadpool trying to kill his teacher, a love story, and the usual humor. We learn A LOT about Deadpool's past in this book.

Very funny, beautifully drawn
