This issue was just . . fun. Well . . as much fun as you can have with a hired killer on your ass! Recently, a "shadowy figure" has decided to hire someone to take out Wolverine. And for some reason . . . Deadpool, decides to accept the offer. So this whole issue, basically, is just the two of them volleying back and forth like two girls playing summer volleyball. But to me, it seems like Deadpool may have the upper hand, just because he's so unpredictable. This guy is seriously bent. He's always been . . out there. But he seems even more so now. To the point that he's hallucinating. He's fighting Logan, but he's seeing a completely different scene in his head. When Logan snaps him back to consciousness, by cutting his face, he says "How . . ? Oh. I, ah . . . drifted. Didn't I?" But the best scene of the book, is on the final page when a beaten and hurt Wolverine is crawling along the sidewalk and doesn't notice that he's crawling over a big red X. There's 2 guys up in the building, that Wade has hired to drop a piano on him. Literally. When Logan looks up and notices it, he says, "You gotta be kidding me . ." And Wade, looking on, says "Boo-Yah! Top that. You stupid Coyote!" Fantastic stuff. After all the multi-issue story-lines that have run through this book so far . . and all of them dealing with all these serious issues that are popping up from Logan's past . . now that he can remember them . . . it's nice to have this "Brawl at the Mall" issue with Wade and Logan just going at it all issue. I don't know if Logan even realizes that Wade's been hired to kill him. I think, he thinks, he's just whacked out more than usual. Some great stuff from Daniel Way and Steve Dillon. Keep up the good work guys.
