Wolverine Origins #22 - Marvel


This issue carried on our little slug-fest between Wolverine and Deadpool. But it was actually more like a Wylie Coyote and Roadrunner cartoon. I mean, Wolverine is being all serious about it, and Deadpool just seems like he's having fun. Well . . except for the getting beat on, and the blood, of course. Deadpool's even running around without his costume on. As scary as that is. Wolverine gets even more angry when Deadpool starts laughing at him. "Why the hell are you smiling?", he say with his claws practically in his nostrils. "Because you're funny man! "Let's play!" "Game over!" You've got more corn in your one-liners that I have in my poop after the county fair!" But I don't think it's necessarily a good idea for Wade to taunt Logan like that. He actually gets more dangerous, the madder he is. But really he's just stalling him while one of his gizmos attaches itself to an underground cable. It's also attached to a Teflon wire. The other end of which is attached to Logan's leg. When he turns it on, it sends him draggin' down the street. Which gives Wade enough time to return to his apartment and get in to proper clothing. But when he returns to find Logan . . he has the red in his eyes. I think he's about to go in to full berserker mode. After a strong kick to the head, Wade looks up and says "Okay, I get it. It's, ah . . . it's on now. Isn't it? Like, fer reals this time." It almost seems as if Deadpool was trying to antagonize him on purpose. Like he was trying to get him in to berserker mode. I wonder what that's all about? Well we won't find out this issue. Another fantastic issue by the superb creative team of Daniel Way and Steve Dillon. They have just been doing an incredible job on this book, since day one. I can't wait to see what the point of all this mayhem and mischief is about.
