That’s right, I didn’t pick up Prelude to Deadpool Corps. Even I have my limits. Green Hornet, on the other hand, isn’t bad, although there are a couple lines that take you out of the story and remind you that Kevin Smith wrote it.
You didn’t miss much with Deadpool Corp Prelude.
Liefeld’s art had me yelling at the paper.
I swear to GOD grenades can NOT bend reality around them.

Honestly, DP Team-Up is just as much space filler. That series started out okay, with van Lente on the opening issue, but since it’s just been… there.
On the plus side, Mark Waid has absolutely owned Spider-Man in general and The Gauntlet in particular. Honestly, he’s such a perfect fit for this book, I have no idea why it never happened sooner. Art’s been great, too.
