A review by atreidesjr
Deadpool vs. Thanos by Elmo Bondoc, Tradd Moore, Tim Seeley
5.0
Deadpool vs. Thanos is witty, charming, and still retains everything we love about both characters (and a few guest stars). I was surprised before reading it to learn that it is Earth-616 canon, but now I'm left satisfied, for Tim Seeley did not write Thanos in a goofy way, nor did he write Deadpool too goofy or too serious; a great medium was found, and props to the writer for that.
Like plenty of Deadpool comics that are not part of an ongoing series, this is short but sweet, reminding me a bit of Cullen Bunn's Deadpool stories. I read this in one sitting, and while that may turn some people off, I didn't mind it. The story was good enough and the art good enough that, while I would have preferred the art a bit more polished and the story a bit longer, I enjoyed it thoroughly.
I did not, however, care much for the final issue. In fact, the only redeeming thing about it, in my opinion, were the things said about the personalities of Wade Wilson and Thanos. Besides that, it was my least favorite issue, and a bit abysmal compared to the rest of the great issues in the book.
But make no mistake: I loved reading this, and I recommend any fan of Deadpool or Thanos (or both) to read it.
