Deadpool and the Mercs For Money is about as subtle as an arrow to the face. There's no nuanced interplay, no layered character depth, no intricately constructed plot. Rather, its a twenty-something page ode to wisecracks and punching stuff. And you know what? When done this well, that's not a bad thing.
The debut issue saw Deadpool and his money men come into possession of an object of untold value, and as such the resulting follow-up focuses on what the bumble headed "businessmen" aim to do with it. It's an understandably predictable train of thought, though writer Cullen Bunn does a solid job of ensuring that the gag gets its mileage. Rather than put the focus squarely on Deadpool, Bunn instead splits the group into twos, with each duo tasked to proposition a different prospective buyer. He further adds to the complication by introducing a series of similar cash and murder enthusiasts out to steal the proposed bounty, lead by the always entertaining Taskmaster. As more and more villains throw in their guns and/or swords, the path to a paycheck becomes increasingly more difficult.
