Deadpool Vol. 1: Secret Invasion Kindle & comiXology

I'd never really heard of Deadpool until I played Marvel Alliance on the xbox with my son, and the character seemed rather cool and pretty darned funny. So seeing this graphic novel on this character for under $3, I couldn't resist picking it up to get a real introduction to the character.Deadpool is a mercenary who seems to be for hire by the highest bidder. An expert in guns, explosives and swordsmanship. We join the story with an invasion of the Skrulls at a baseball game. What's not terribly clear is how he knew that they would be there. Anyway, he manages to win the battle single handedly....and then salutes the Skrull commander and offers to join their side. They recognize his unique ability to heal (he has incredible regenerative powers) and accept, using his dna to create essentially clones of Deadpool. What ensues is pretty funny as he wreaks havoc, sewing the seeds of chaos throughout the ship and killing a bunch of the Skrulls. Despite all of this, he isn't paid by Nick Fury for the work he's done as Norman Osborne intercepted the data that Deadpool tries to transmit to Fury. So Deadpool is broke and accepts another job from an old foe, which entails wiping out a plastic surgeon (who may or may not be a zombie) and his staff (who are zombies).There is little not to love about the "Merc With A Mouth" - he talks to himself and sings at random moments. There is no question as to his fighting prowess. The only question that you're truly left with is whether the hilarity and chaos are carefully planned, or whether he's just plain incredibly lucky. Deadpool is by far the funniest character in the superhero genre that I've come across, and I'm hoping to expand my collection of his tales of adventure.The stories are entertaining as heck and the artwork is absolutely top notch. For clarification, I read this on my 7" kindle Fire HD, and had no problems with the text on panel view. I highly recommend this book!

First off, I'll preface by saying that I've only recently gotten into comics and even more recently Deadpool specifically. That being said, I enjoyed this comic immensely. I've read alot of good comics since I started (Ultimates, Walking Dead, Astonishing X-men, Punisher MAX,) but this is the first one I've wanted to re-read only a day after reading it the first time.As I said, I'm new to Deadpool, however I've also read the first volume of Cable and Deadpool and will say that the portrayal of Deadpool in the two comics is slightly different. In Cable and Deadpool Vol1, Deadpool is that "wild and crazy guy" who loves to make wisecracks and is a little childish/naive (despite being very skilled/intelligent) compared to the stoic Cable. The Deadpool in "Cable and Deadpool" comes off to me as being very eccentric, but still has his sanity (even if just barely). The Deadpool in this comic however is very clearly insane. He is frequently hallucinating and talking to himself. Some would say this "off the deep end" version of Deadpool is "too silly," but I think it's great. This comic may not appeal to people who've been brought up with a slightly more serious version of Deadpool, but I think its his complete insanity coupled with his skill/badassery in this that makes him stand out as a more interesting character than just a wisecracking ninja. Again, I'm new to Deadpool and am not familiar with his level of sanity throughout Cable and Deadpool and his portrayal by earlier writers, but simply from Cable and Deadpool Vol 1 and the comments of other Deadpool fans, I'm lead to believe that this version of Deadpool is significantly "crazier/sillier" than others.Lastly, it should be noted that this volume contains two arcs, one secret invasion arc and one zombie (regular zombies, not super hero Marvel Zombies) arc. Both are great at showcasing how skilled Deadpool is despite being utterly insane. I fully recommend this comic to Deadpool fans new and old alike.

Personally I wouldn't pay more then 10 bucks but it was a gift so...The art is great.Deadpool was DeadpoolBut the story just did not impacted me as much as it could have . 7/10 readIt got to my house in one place so that's a plus

I mostly enjoy manga, but a coworker of mine loves DC and Marvel comic books and got me interested.I decided to look into Deadpool because of the movie X-Men Wolverine Origins. I remember when I first watched that movie it made me want to find out who the character really was. It was none other than Deadpool.After reading the negative reviews on this comic I was a little worried that it wouldn't be so good, but I'm glad I decided to buy it anyway because it's hilarious especially the 2nd volume Dark Reign. I don't understand what people were talking about concerning the jumps, because it seemed to be pretty straight forward. The jokes were given at the time. The love/hate thing I had with it though is that he doesn't have any weakness, he gets killed and then revived again over and over again, but I guess its for the jokes mostly that make it what it is, either way I enjoyed it. This is coming for a complete newbie to Marvel and DC. I found myself asking "Who's that...?" when certain characters came up.

My daughters fiancé enjoyed this book. Colourful, clear illustrations good story.

Nice Adventure

DeadPool Returns !! Wonderful script and Well crafted story !! Waiting for Volume 2 and 3

Eins vorweg; ich bin nicht der größte Deadpool-Fan unter der Sonne. Die einzigen Infos die ich zu Deadpool habe stammen aus dem Videospiel "Deadpool" welches dieses Jahr erschienen ist.Aber genau deswegen hab ich lust auf diesen verrückten Mutierten erhalten und natürlich musste ich mir den Comic kaufen!Der Comic besteht aus 2 Teilen:Teil 1 besteht aus 3 Comics & beschäftigt sich mit der Skrull-Invasion und Teil 2 beschäftigt sich mit der persönlichen Story von Deadpool.Der Zeichenstil ist wirklich schön und detailliert. Der Comic ist leicht zu verstehen und macht unglablich viel Spaß; Stichwort "Klopf-Klopf"-Witz!Fazit:Ein grenzgenialer Comic zum wohl verrücktesten Anti-helden des Marvel-Universums, perfekt für Neulinge und Fans!
