Wolverine Origins # 22 Review
Author: Daniel Way
Art: Steve Dillon
Colors: Matt Millar
I’m so glad I decided to read this book first and then head over and read Cable and Deadpool 50. Because it would have made this train wreck of a book seem more like the Titanic. The only thing that Deadpool brings with him is his costume, because the funny must have been left behind.
Deadpool is trying to kill Wolverine for some reason. But then again, does Deadpool really need a reason to do anything? Probably not. I’m sure someone has hired him to deal with Wolvie…..but surely it can’t be that simple can it? Deadpool tries everything from dropping a piano to shooting Wolverine, so it is exactly the same thing that happened last issue and I’m sure will keep happening for the next three issues too.
The story and art are bland and nothing really unique comes from Way or Dillon. I can’t figure out if he is writing Deadpool’s voices in his head for the purpose on a new take on the character or because he just simply cannot write Deadpool. I really have no idea how Marvel decided that this new take justifies Way writing the new Deadpool book. I really have no idea how this book is being published. But what baffles me the most is I really have no idea what the heck I am doing reading this book!!!? Cool cover though. D
