Brilliant, but short, story arc where Deadpool is sectioned after acting weirder than normal, and is then made to kill all superheroes. How he goes about this is brilliant, though at times you are left wanting more. My favourite scene was when Deadpool killed the Hulk. The ending was clever and in tune with Deadpool's 4th wall breaking.

Beautiful Movie
The animation is beautiful, a credit to the previous Ghibli crew. I felt that the story lacked in ways and it left me wanting more when it was over. Still enjoyable but could have used a better story arc. Somewhat predictable and then falling short of other expectations, it is still worth a watch.

I was slightly disappointed in this book - I think I had way too many high hopes and was a bit let down. I thought each of the MC were slightly annoying - though I do like Tanners friend a lot - The story was great and the concept was cool I just think it fell a bit short for me.

Past its best before date
After a very funny 5th and 6th films in the Pie franchise this takes a total nose dive. It looks so low budget, short on ideas and humour. With a new angle again with a new cast, except a small role for Eugene Levy as usual, it doesn't feel like the other films.

This was a fun short story with a few good twists and turns to keep the reader interested. I found it both funny and creepy as I really liked the characters but I absolutely hate clowns. I would say this is more a comedy than a horror but I'm still going to shelve it as horror because...clowns.
New binge watch
Great series. Had me binge watching like mad. The storyline wasn't too predictable and the characters are given semi detailed back stories and progression. Similar concept to others but love the way this has been done. Obviously has been dubbed into English but after a short time you don't notice

I won this book on a Goodreads Giveaway and I didn’t realize it was a collection of short stories all connected by one place. There were some quotes that really struck a chord with me, however, overall I really felt it was hard to get into some of the stories and connect with some of the characters.

Man, this was REALLY intense and scary for me.
I wish it was a little shorter and that the book moved along at a quicker pace (story-wise) but it was a suspenseful and intriguing read. Add that together + a lackluster ending and you get an exciting book that falls short of something a little more thought out.

**This book is NOT for kids!** Likely Stories in an interesting graphic novel. There are four odd short stories in the book, each a little more twisted than the others in various ways. It's an interesting read, if you're a Neil Gaiman fan, or if you're looking for a very adult graphic novel that isn't about superheroes.
