3.5 starsYou know what all those "Better Psychopaths" you were bragging about shoulda tried?A Gun. That's not a spoiler.The \
  title\
 is a spoiler.After all, it doesn't say, Deadpool Attempts to Kill the Marvel Universe.And really, that about sums this one up.Proffessor X decides that it's time Wade got some 'help', and the X-Men pack him off to the loony bin. Unfortunately, therapy has an unwanted side effect for Wilson. He discovers that he's not as crazy as he thought, and embarks on a killing spree to prove it.The whole thing revolves around Deadpool figuring out that he, and the entire Marvel universe, are comic book characters. His grand plan is to end all their needless suffering at the hands of the writers.So...PARENTAL ADVISORY WARNINGEveryone dies in increasingly inventive ways. None of it's pretty.And not much of it's funny, either.There were a few really good lines in there, most of it to do with how silly it is that all of these characters have escaped death over and over again. Especially considering how relatively simple it would be to end them if someone really wanted to.Did I like it?Well, it was short and to the point. Any longer, and I probably wouldn't have been able to take much more. But this book isn't aimed at readers like me, so there's no deducting points for that.It wasn't badly written, and I liked the way it poked fun of all the deaths and miraculous resurrections of this genre. The ending was foreseeable, but still a nice touch.If you enjoy the more violent gory comics, then this would probably be right up your alley. If not, steer clear of it.Also reviewed for TattooGirl Reads
