The overall story is ridiculous but entertaining moments make this well worth reading. ( )

In my ongoing goal to become comics literate, I kept running across mentions of Deadpool. He breaks the 4th wall! He's so funny and cool! But I didn't know where to start. I saw the cover of this one and I thought it was neat-looking. But the book was so much better. I kinda expected it to be Deadpool goes off and writes the Art of War himself. But no. This reinterpretation of the classic in an age of Marvel superheroes was amazing. It brought in just enough history and quotations from the actual Art of War that you felt like you learned something. But the story was also exciting and you weren't sure how it was going to play out when you get absolutely everyone Marvel on one page. I was very happy with the resolution, and now I'm excited for the Deadpool movie! ( )
