I could see this being a very hit-or-miss title, but it was a hit for me. This is the first solo Deadpool book I've read, and I'm definitely a fan of his nonstop jokes. I'm also a bit of a history nerd so I was 100% here for all of the presidential humor. Like, if the idea of zombie T.R. fighting a bear appeals to you, you should maybe check this out. (Yes, zombie Taft gets stuck in a bathtub; yes, that is a tired joke by now, but THIS time he has Abraham Lincoln's severed head on a rubber duck's body.) Oh, and also Dr. Strange quotes GOB Bluth, so, that was pretty great. A really fun read, plus some gross zombie stuff that I didn't like but which obviously appeals to some other readers.
