Deadpool that's all there is to say about this great book Oh but there's a lot more to talk about. This book shows a very dark Deadpool as the title says. I think this book had a good dark story and tons and tons of action. Deadpool is always a good fun character to watch or read but this book takes him to another level bad for the heros but good for him and the readers. And also you have the whole Marvel universe in this book so there's also tons and tons of characters. Deadpool has some interesting and creative ways that he kills the Marvel universe. The book is worth a read if you like Deadpool or just the Marvel Universe. I'm trying not to spoil the book but it's great and you should read it.

I enjoy Deadpool and his shtick, but he's not my. I picked this book because of the length and its lack of necessary continuity. Most of the deaths here are entertaining in a "Final Destination" way.
I wouldn't necessarily recommend this to non-Deadpool fans or first timers.
Read via Marvel Unlimited.

There is a certain darkness that comes with Deadpool, but this one took that to a whole new level. Deadpool wants to end his own existence because he knows he only exists in a comic, so he decides to kill every Marvel hero and villain to try and end the universe. And I don't know if I really should like him killing off my favorite heroes, but it was actually just as fun as you'd expect from Deadpool.

The book is really good If you want to read about only Deadpool going around on a killing spree but I wouldn’t really recommend this as an introduction to Deadpool’s character.

If you are looking for the funny "Merc with a Mouth" Deadpool, you are going to be disappointed. If you saw the movie and thought this book looked like fun, I'd suggest you start with something else--maybe Deadpool Volume 1: Dead Presidents. That is a sufficiently ridiculous book (not a putdown surprisingly--I found it a lot of fun). This is a darker Deadpool. Not a lot of funny lines. Nor a lot of jokes. Just a lot of death.
The title is not an exaggeration. Deadpool does go about killing every superhero and super villain in the Marvel universe. So to talk about it isn't really a spoiler. His motivation in doing so, might be. So if you keep reading, you are going to get my take on what that motivation is.
Through a freak accident (very comic book-y there) Deadpool comes to the insane conclusion that all the death, pain, rebirth, angst, in his universe are because they are but puppets to an outside force and that all their suffering is for the entertainment of others.
He is not killing these characters for fun. He's not doing it for kicks. He is trying to put them out of their misery, then go seek revenge for all he and they have been put through.

A quick and fun read. Very straightforward. Title says it all.

I expected more in-depth planning, in the deaths of everything Marvel. There was little focus on how we got to the points of which Deadpool actually kills anyone, with the exception of some of the X-Men. Everything is just explosion, next scene, explosion and next scene. Dissappointing really.
