| + | <html>The first Deadpool Marvel NOW! story arc was about Deadpool fighting all the newly-resurrected dead American presidents, and this second arc is about Deadpool killing a bunch of superheroes who got their superpowers by selling their souls which turns out to be an even better read than the first book! | ||

| + | Deadpool Volume 2: Soul Hunter kicks off with what could be one of my favourite Deadpool single issues yet. Set during 1979 s Iron Man: Demon in a Bottle, the classic Marvel book which establishes Tony Stark as an alcoholic, Deadpool shows up (despite being created by The Rob in 1991) and meets a demon called Vetis who tries to get him to keep Stark drunk. Deadpool heads off for a brilliant encounter with Tony, and Deadpool-esque dark comedy ensues. | ||

| + | I love this issue so much for so many reasons it mimics the late 70s Marvel look perfectly, it makes fun of a book that hasn t dated well (and really wasn t that great to start with), and is a really funny parody of Marvel s old style of comics. It also makes light of Stark s overblown drinking problem which, while a great idea, was so poorly executed in Demon in a Bottle , a quality that Brian Posehn and Gerry Duggan are quick to make fun of. As a prologue to the book, this comic is simply outstanding I wish the whole book had been Deadpool jumping into old popular Marvel books and taking the piss out of them. | ||

| + | Fast forward to the present and the aftermath of the first book, Dead Presidents. Deadpool is sharing his headspace with a dead SHIELD agent called Preston and the necromancer from the first book, Mike, is trying to extricate her into a new body. Meanwhile, the demon Vetis appears once again to force Deadpool to collect the souls of ordinary people now embued with superpowers thanks to a clause in a contract Deadpool signed back in 1979. Let chaos begin! | ||

| + | Deadpool takes on a Luke Cage-a-like, and, perhaps best of all,[http://www.jerseys-online.org/cheap-nike-ravens-55-suggs-purple-elite-jerseys-p-25720.html Suggs Elite Jerseys], an Aquaman-lookalike in some brilliantly bloody encounters. He also fights Daredevil and teams up with the Superior Spider-man as he attempts to assassinate a Donald Trump-lookalike who s hired a number of classic Marvel supervillains, among them the superbly named Paste Pot Pete, to protect him from our crazy but deadly hero. | ||

| + | Posehn and Duggan keep the laughs coming as we get to take a peek inside Deadpool s mind if you re wondering what s inside, think a Chuck-E-Cheese crossed with a warped Louvre as Mike the necromancer gets sent to Hell (artist Mike Hawthorne s vision of Hell is truly horrible, being an endless queue in a bland bureaucratic office environment). | ||
| + | |||
| + | Soul Hunter is thoroughly entertaining until we get to the stuttering finale, which seems to be Deadpool s kryptonite every final act with this character seems awkward and slow. It s like things are flying along wonderfully and then all of a sudden the writers have to remind themselves that the book is coming to an end and they ve got to wrap up storylines and make the book seem whole. It s no different here as the third act showdown between Deadpool and Vetis reads, despite the interesting visuals, kinda dull. | ||

| + | It s a minor complaint though in an otherwise highly enjoyable book. Deadpool fights superheroes and supervillains, both A, B and Z list, and a demon too. It s hilarious, it s entertaining, it s still one of the best Marvel NOW! titles going,[http://www.197399.com/home.php?mod=space&uid=22084 ], it s Brian Posehn and Gerry Duggan s excellent Deadpool series check out Soul Hunter today! | ||
