Preview: Deadpool #1

Deadpool is one of my favorite comics right now. Daniel Way is a fantastic writer who really gets what’s great about the character and the art is usually really great. The series has had some great artists over its run. Now Tony Moore is going to be taking over art duties for the new series, and I’m excited for that. I really like more as an artist and thought that his run with The Walking Dead was the best art that series has had. The thing I am a bit worried about are the writers. Brian Posehn and Gerry Duggan are replacing Way, and I have no idea how they write. I haven’t read the other comic they wrote, The Last Christmas, and I am not that familiar with anything else they’ve done. I guess I’ll just have to wait and see.
