Yeah, it's a fun series (Suicide Kings). The art is AMAZING. Only a five-parter, though. Four is out soon.
Loric, soon.

I just meant that there is no explainable reason why Wolverine shouldn't be able to rip the shit out of Deadpool =/ In the past at least as Deadpool has become slightly overpowered healing wise. |
Daken is superior to Wolverine, so that's not really a credible argument.
Wolverine has wounded Deadpool up on more than one occassion, he just hasn't beat Deadpool as many times, and Deadpool generally always has the upper hand. He also has the additional ability to drive his opponents nuts by annoying them during the fight. His incessant talking and blabbering was enough to muddle Daredevil's senses, for one.

I grew up watching things that were probably based off of comics or could have easily been made into comics. I also read stories about superheroes and such, but they were actual in-depth stories.
Especially now, I see it as pointless to read comics. You used to hear people talk about these older comics and how amazing they were; the stories, the illustrations, and the writing style. Now it seems like no one talks much about comics that were made more recently, they seem to refer back to older comics as those are the far superior ones.
We also have all these terrible fad styles like manga that have caught on like a bad disease and need to be destroyed. If only we had more comics like the original Daredevil or X-Men, then perhaps I'd read them more.

You can do things in comics that you can't do in television, movies OR books. It's a medium all its own, with benefits that no other medium has. If you disagree, go tell me how well the comic book adaptations hold up compared to the comics themselves. Nowhere close, with a few exceptions. Even the amazing ones aren't close to having the same feel.
With but a few exceptions, the stories are better now, I think. They're certainly way more intricate and involving. Then again, character depending, comics have always had intricate stories. People who view them as simple BECAUSE they're comics have obviously never taken time to read one.
