X-Men: The (fan fic) Series

Ah, so this story is related to the other ‘Deadpool Kills’ stories after all, and not in a way that makes me want to face palm.

Seems that ‘our’ Deadpool is fighting for his life against the Deadpool that has serious depression. I mean, that’s really what this is all about. Deadpool says it himself when he comments about how he wants to “murder all the other Deadpools… every time [he] looks in the mirror”. For all the man’s laughs, he really is one walking bundle of self-loathing and clinical depression. He’s been kicked around, raped, you name it, and he’s not allowed to either a) live a normal life or b) die naturally. He’s stuck in this endless loop.

Haven’t we all been there at some point?

Let’s just hope the mini-series continues to play that secondary plot point and actually give us a payoff.
