Deadpool awakes from a food coma to find? THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE HAS OCCURRED! Can the Merc with the Mouth avoid becoming the Merc in their Mouths? Writer of the DEADPOOL KILLOGY Cullen Bunn brings us to one of Deadpool’s darkest tales ever and not just because it’s in black & white (and red)!
Review
Easily one of the most entertaining and funny zombie books I’ve ever read. Night of the Living Deadpool is designed like the movie Pleasantville, largely presented in black and white with splashes of color. Cullen Bunn is arguably the most prolific Deadpool writer. This four issue series delivers on the zombie madness promised in the title and, like all great zombie books, puts an interesting spin on zombie lore. I especially like the idea of zombies articulating their longing for death or their confession that they can’t control their hunger. Although this is a review of the first issue, the remaining three are equally as entertaining. I’ll fight the urge to spoil the entirety of the series but I will say that Deadpool is able to save the world in the most Deadpool way possible, leaving readers to question if the world was better off not being saved. Night of the Living Deadpool delivers in just about every conceivable way. The horror is horrific. The humor is hysterical. The art is impeccable. The story starts out in a 28 Days Later/The Walking Dead manner with Deadpool awaking from a coma …a food coma. The great thing about Deadpool is that no matter how absurd the storyline is, Good Ol’ Wade fits in perfectly every single time. Night of the Living Deadpool, despite its on the nose title, is uniquely clever and worthy of display on the shelves of horror and superhero fans alike.
