The name’s Poo – Steaming Pile of Poo aka Secret Agent Deadpoo(l)!
So a James Bond-type dies in a fire, Deadpool takes his identity and everyone assumes Wade’s the Bond-type, he’s just badly burned from the fire – oh hi-larious (if you don’t know, under the mask, Deadpool looks like a burn victim).
Christopher Hastings lists off the predictable Bond references: Q, M, henchmen, villain who wants to take over the world or something, villain’s lair, Moneypenny, gadgets, women, lotsa action, and martinis. There’s even a fight in the snow a la the opening scene of The Spy Who Loved Me.
The story is pointless, none of the jokes are funny and the whole thing is predictably dull pap. I’d hoped that Hastings was going to produce something more compelling and creative after his excellent run on Gwenpool but unfortunately, like most Deadpool comics these days, Secret Agent Deadpool isn’t the least bit interesting.
