Deadpool #29

Overall: This issue begins with Deadpool standing over a few bound Secret Avengers who were caught in an explosion set off by the AWESOME Dr. Bong last issue. The Secret Avengers are Steve Rogers, Black Widow, Moon Knight and Steve Rogers... Yep, there are two Steve Rogers there. So Deadpool goes about questioning the Steves to see which one was the real deal. After remembering that the real Steve Rogers didn't have a healing factor, while the Dr. Bong created clone does, Deadpool checks the two for wounds, and upon seeing one of the Steves was bleeding, Deadpool blows the fake Steve's brains out. DP decides to cut the heroes loose, and Steve tells DP that he's going to put him in charge of capturing Bong, since DP knows Bong better than the rest of the Secret Avengers. Meanwhile, Dr. Bong and his army of Deadpool clones are loading up a truck with millions of dollars worth of explosives. By this point, DP and the Secret Avengers arrive at Bong's warehouse, and DP infiltrates the army of DP clones, tricking them into believing he was one of them. Deadpool cozies up to Bong, helping him finish the loading and driving away with Bong while the Avengers make sort work of all of the DP clones. Bong almost escapes in the confusion, but Black Widow manages to shoot out one of his tires, causing the truck to go careening off the road and exploding. Using the powers of Awesome, Bong manages to escape the explosion and confronts the Avengers. Or at least that's what Bong tells the heroes. In actuality, Deadpool pushed Bong to safety, since Steve told DP he wanted Bong taken alive. Deadpool then reveals to Bong that he was the real Deadpool, and that he was handing Bong over to the Avengers, as per DP's agreement with the team. Bong goes to use his... exploding bell powers, but DP slices off Bong's hand and then sets off fireworks in celebration, ending this issue.

Yeah, this was probably the funniest comic book I have read all year. Off the top of my head, I can't think of a comic that made me laugh as much as this one did in a good long time. It had what every good Deadpool comic needs, humor, and lots of it! The art was good, the story was good, Dr. Bong brought the awesome and I laughed throughout this comic. In other words, it was perfect. And you know what that means I'm going to score this one!

Score: 10 out of 10.Dr. Bong actually calling his lackeys, "lackeys" AND Steve Rogers sitting on Deadpool's lap? This may just be the page of the year!

  1. So the Question is... would you rather have Black Widow... or Steve Rogers sit on your lap X? :P

    I REALLY hope they bring back Doctor Bong soon. That character is so awesome it doesn't even make sense.

  2. Um... No comment... :D

    I'd be all for signing a petition BEGGING for a Dr. Bong mini-series! Hell, if that damn Hit-Monkey could get a mini, why not Bong!?! Oh, btw, I found some early Dr. Bong stuff from the first DP series, so hopefully I'll be posting them soon!

  4. I actually thought he was new as well, JT! I was trying to bring some order to my older MArvel books the other day and BAM, there was DR. Bong on the cover of an older DP book! Needless to say I pulled that comic out to scan!
