SINS OF THE PAST PART 1 When Black Tom's men break into Deadpool's favorite bar to kidnap the Merc, Siryn and Banshee show up to help Deadpool out. But with Deadpool's healing factor on the fritz, can he survive?
Mark Waid (born March 21, 1962 in Hueytown, Alabama) is an American comic book writer. He is best known for his eight-year run as writer of the DC Comics' title The Flash, as well as his scripting of the limited series Kingdom Come and Superman: Birthright, and his work on Marvel Comics' Captain America.
I've read a few Deadpool collections, but now thanks to the Marcel Unlimited subscription, I'm starting at the beginning.
In this issue, Deadpool is hanging out at a bar when Black Tom's men bust in and attempt to kidnap him. Deadpool easily gets out of the attacks thrown at him, until his "favorite hand" gets cut off. He isn't concerned at first, but then he becomes worried when his regeneration doesn't kick in. During the fight, Banshee and Siryn swoop in to help.

Deadpool always delivers. I tend to worry about comic book comedy, especially during certain eras and genres. But this issue still had a few chuckle-worthy lines, and the right mix of action and gags. Nothing spectacular to recommend, overall, though, and the art was pretty uneven.
