Spiderman/Deadpool swings above and beyond

Spider-Man and Deadpool face a new threat in the Spider-Man/Deadpool comic book issue No. 9, released Sept. 28. It’s the start of the new story, “Itsy Bitsy,” and the continuation of pure magic.
This comic continues Deadpool’s adventures with his handsome new face. The titular duo face off against a gang of quirky and less than fearsome villains in a comedic and action-packed brawl. The new story “Itsy Bitsy” starts off with a bang, including the introduction of a frightening and well-designed new foe.
Like the rest of the comics, this issue is over-the-top, silly, good fun. It runs at a snappy pace with no dull moments. Spider-Man/Deadpool provides sheer insanity and fun with every panel.
The chemistry between Spiderman and Deadpool is perfect. This comic, like the rest of the series, is a perfect showcase for the two characters. The banter between the two is always spot-on. Deadpool’s critiquing of Spiderman’s one liners especially stands out. The two personalities work well together to create a comedic and volatile team. The duo’s differences in personality clash in all the right ways, delivering a knockout punch. Spider-Man’s heroic nature works well with Deadpool’s anti-hero personality. There are moments where Deadpool’s good guy shines through but it is never preachy or full of unwanted sentiment. Writer Joe Kelly continues to write solid gold.
The art here continues to be of high quality. This issue is colorful and full of exciting visuals. The shots are eye-popping and contribute to the amount of fun in this issue. There is plenty of variety to the panels and illustrations. Jason Keith’s coloring is eye candy and Mark Morale’s inking is effective as usual.
Spider-Man/Deadpool No. 9 is a fantastic release in a fantastic series. This series continues to be one of Marvel’s finest. For that, this issue earns nine out of 10 stars.
