This was a promising idea, and I get why it's not as funny as your usual Deadpool comic. It's only consequential that even the fights were not as entertaining as you would hope, because the whole idea resolves around Deadpool being done with entertaining the audience.
Unfortunately this idea alone doesn't make it an interesting or fun read, so it leaves me a bit disappointed.

This was quite fun and easy, so I pretty much read it in one sitting. Superhero comics still aren't really my thing, but I enjoyed the meta-ness! The second half in particular was fun, with all the classic novel references.

Deadpool comics never disappoint with this being one of the most entertaining and enjoyable ones there is with every fourth wall beak being nothing far from perfect.

An interesting "what if?" story. Other than that it isn't very imaginative.

Jeeeeeez I’m sad. I just saw deadpool shoot my favourite in the head (my favourite being Spider-Man)... anyways

Deadpool kills the universe — basically deadpool finds out that the everyone in the marvel universe are just puppets so goes and as the title suggests kills the entire marvel universe to put everyone out of their misery, you even get an awesome ending. ( as everyone loves deadpool breaks the fourth wall)

My thoughts - the good and bad - I really enjoyed how marvel wasn’t scared to make this gruesome and brutal and to me heartbreaking and I love that the book attached to my feelings in a way. The art portrays the murder really well and you get that gross feeling. I also enjoyed the plot. My problem was that the story was really short and since it’s short the characters deadpool’s killing don’t get a lot of time to fight back or not a lot of dialogue is shared, I think the team and the characters with the most dialogue with deadpool were the X-Men, Spider-Man and taskmaster. That’s why instead of rounding up like I usually do I decided the book was more of a 4 star.

Overall really great book
