Deadpool Pulp (a.k.a. My Thoughts On AU Fic)

Was awesome, and you should all go out and buy the whole mini. Seriously, I can think of no other Deadpool story published since Cable&Deadpool ended that I have enjoyed nearly this much. I am probably a little biased since I have a thing for well thought-out AU stories - and I have a definite thing for Deadpool stories featuring Cable in important supporting roles - but this just delivered on every front: great concept, great story, lots of clever twists, utterly intriguing takes on some of my favourite characters, and that ending... :3 A little hard to follow in a places, largely due to some murky art, but all my complaints beyond that are drifting rapidly into nitpick territory. The final issue came out right before Christmas and (meaning no offense to any of my rellis) I'm not sure I got anything else for Christmas I loved as much. *_*

The only reason it has taken me so long to say something about it is because the full review is getting kind of enormous. Well, that and a distressing pile of unfinished cosplay stuff still staring at me. But I have a lot to squee about in this mini and believe me, I do still intend to do so in full.


( The following is not the review. This following is merely a chunk that was cut out of the review because it goes wildly off on a lot of tangents about My Thoughts On Fanfic and My Thoughts On What Makes A Good AU Story before getting to say anything the actual Pulp mini at the end, but I am dumping here so at least it's all out of my head. )
