Deadpool: Paws

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Deadpool: Paws by Stefan Petrucha

I chose to listened to the Graphic Audio version rather than reading the normal book, and thank god I did. It made what would have been a horrible book, into an enjoyable Deadpool experience.

Now it’s not the portrayal of Deadpool, or the jokes that made this book bad, those are actually pretty spot on. In fact, when it came to the fourth wall breaks, Graphic Audio actually went the extra mile to alter some of the jokes and take into account that it’s an audiobook and not a regular book.

Rather, it just has a bad story, plain and simple. The action scenes are great, and there’s the patented hilariously awkward conversations with characters that actually take their job seriously, and I loved the inclusion of Spider-Man. What bothered me was the annoying amount of puppy love, and that much of the book felt a little pointless.

BUT, let’s face it, nobody watches, reads, or listens to Deadpool for the story; you do it cause it’s Deadpool.
