A must for anyone interested in Deadpool, whether you are a newbie or a seasoned fan. Deadpool has appeared in over 7,000 comic books, yet still is quite an unknown character.

Starting as a villain, Deadpool developed into a wise-cracking vigilante, mostly working as a mercenary. This book is an introduction into the history and presence of Wade Wilson, also known as the Merc with a Mouth, better known as Deadpool.

interesting details, flat delivery

I loved learning more about Deadpools creation and his history in the comics and was surprised to hear he wasn't instantly a popular character bit despite of this became a prolific character throughout the different marvel series.

The nods to his popularity through movies and particularly Ryan Renolds portrayal of the merc with a mouth and his anger at that being robbed from the character in the x-men movie, was nice as I think a lot of people came to the character through these movies.

I understand that this book is packed with facts, dates, issue numbers and titles, character bios but the way they were read was just so depressingly flat. It sadly felt that C.J.McAllister totally missed the mark with the chaotic joy that is such a big part of the Deadpool story. He did a good job conveying all the facts in a simple, straightforward manner but it all just fell a bit flat.

I was given this audiobook for free from audiobooks unleashed and have left this review voluntarily.
