Deadpool Vol. 2: Soul Hunter Summary/Review

So.

 

 

If you haven’t read my review on the first volume, you should probably go HERE.

 

Spoilers, Sweetie!

 

Soul Hunter. We left Deadpool with Agent Preston’s consciousness in his head. However, the first issue in this volume is an inventory story from way back in the 70’s or 80’s. Deadpool gets approached by a demon called Vetis trying to collect souls. Vetis wants the Merc to get Iron Man to re-start his drinking problem. However, when Deadpool sees Tony Stark, he gets around the deal by putting on the Iron Man suit himself and taking a drink of alcohol. The next issue, however, is back into the present. Deadpool goes to see Agent Preston’s son, but gets shot. Then, Vetis comes back and says that if Deadpool doesn’t kill four certain people, Vetis will kill the necromancer (called Michael) in the last issue. Deadpool starts killing the people while looking for a way to save Michael.

 

Then, some weird people come, drug Deadpool, and take his organs…

 

Deadpool kills the necromancer in order for him to get an audience with Mephisto. The Merc has killed three of the required four when he goes to Agent Preston’s house again and convinces her family that she’s stuck in Deadpool’s head. Deadpool then kills the required fourth person. Vetis comes and tells Deadpool he’s going to kill the necromancer anyway, however, as Michael is already dead, Vetis wants to kill Deadpool instead. Deadpool holds him off long enough for Michael (the necromancer) and Mephisto to come and restrain Vetis.

 

Overall, Soul Hunter was pretty good. The best part, for me, was the inventory issue.  However, I liked volume one better. To me, this volume seemed to not flow very well. I don’t know.

 

It was cool.

 

Bye.
