"HORROR BIZNESS," Part 2 (of 2)
This is what Deadpool has to resort to, only days after single-handedly saving the entire planet from Skrulls? Oh, that's right--nobody knows about that...Deadpool didn't even want this job. But here he is anyway, in some dank corner of Eastern Europe, going toe-to-toe with an undead plastic surgeon and his flesh-eating clientele, contracted by the head of a greasy paramilitary unit to avenge the zombification of the guy's young, ex-model trophy wife -- and all because Wade's dead broke.

BONUS REVIEW by JOHN ROBINSON
Part 2 of Horror Bizness, only makes a thankfully brief reference to Skrulls and does NOT tie in to SECRET INVASION. Standard DEADPOOL takes on a contract and things don't go the way he figures. Nothing deep, no multi-title crossovers, just fun Deadpool lunacy like you'd expect. Everythings wrapped up tightly at the end of the issue and next issue can literally go any direction writer Daniel Way feels like, which I for one enjoy. The only problem I had with CABLE/DEADPOOL was that the series was always on a linear course - now it's a FREE for ALL which is how Deadpool should be.
Clean art, and typical story rate it a 7 out of 10.
