HAWKEYE VS DEADPOOL. Hmm.. Features The Merc with the Mouth, Hawkeye and Kate Bishop. Written by Gerry Duggan, whom I am told has written a number of DP stories. Okay, sounds like a recipe for fun, right? [Cue the buzzer sound] NOPE!

What followed was a train wreck, the kind that there is no accident insurance in the world that could've helped this mess! Sophmoric writing, humor that wasn't humorous enough to call it "humor" (!), and characterizations that, if owned the characters of Clint Barton and Kate Bishop, should have made Matt Fraction unbelievably disappointed!

And dear God, when did Black Cat become such a lame-ass character? Okay, granted she was bat-**** crazy, but here? She was acting like some criminal mastermind (with two scoops of crazy!).

The only thing that helped me give this drek at least one star? The art talent of Matteo Lolli! That was about the only this book got right: the way the characters are supposed to look!

Look, when it went up for the sale price of $2.99 on Comixology, I thought it would be justokay, but not this bad! One of those rare situations where I should've heeded the negative reviews I'd seen for this book!

*** NOT Recommended! ***
