![]() ![]() Well, this one plays out as an Agatha Christie mystery whodunnit story, but not in a good way.ĭeadpool for some reason, calls a bunch of people and ducks and trees, which have nothing to do with each other, in his house with Shiklah and he invites them for whatever reason to what?! Take a picture all together? Something like that. And it’s always great to see Spider-Ham! Poo poo pants to Squirrel Girl and Howard though so not quite full marks for this one ish. I really like the concept behind this one as And Then There Were None is my favourite Agatha Christie novel and this first issue is a strong start to what could be an awesome story - Deadpool’s last Infinite Comic, Dracula’s Gauntlet, was my favourite Deadpool book so hopefully this one is good too. As the group arrives at the mysteriously empty mansion in the middle of nowhere, they realise this is a set-up - and then one of them is murdered! Whodunit? The good news is that this is a Marvel version of Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None so there’s a possibility we might get to see them killed!Īlong with Squirrel Girl and Howard the Duck, someone is blackmailing Forbush Man, Peter Porker the Spider-Ham, The Punisher, Ant-Man, Rocket and Groot, and, of course, Deadpool and his wife Shiklah. The bad news is the Unbearable Squirrel Girl and Howard the Fuck are in this comic. Who killed the cool premise? This creative team with their crap, uninspired execution! The story starts well and Todd Nauck’s art is ok but Deadpool: Too Soon? is largely too shit to bother with. ![]() Also included is a pointless and forgettable story from the Gwenpool Holiday Special where Deadpool goes to a Deadpool lookalike contest on Halloween. There’s also Deus Ex Machinas galore, undermining what little of the drama there was. The “jokes”, which are just obvious pop culture references, aren’t funny and the ending is a cop-out with who the killer is and their motive - just lazy contrived rubbish. It didn’t help that the Unbearable Squirrel Girl, a character I can’t stand but whom Marvel love shoving in as many titles as possible, is in this one a lot accompanying Wade as his insufferable detective sidekick. After the decent opening with the victim being killed, the following investigation was dull and uninteresting full of the standard superhero punch-up drivel. It’s up to Wade to do his best Miss Marple impression and find out whodunit!īeing an Agatha Christie fan, the premise was appealing but the book turned out to be disappointingly rubbish. Marvel meets Agatha Christie in Deadpool: Too Soon? A group of Marvel characters are invited to a secluded country mansion and then one of them is murdered. ![]()
