I used to love MAD Magazine. For sheer silliness and dumb parody humor, nothing came close. Until now.
“Deadpool” is the MAD Magazine of Marvel Comics, and Wade Wilson is the “What, me worry?” Alfred E. Neuman of the MCU.
Gerry Duggan and Brian Posehn, writers, and Scott Koblish, artist, have compiled eight issues of “Deadpool” into one compilation volume entitled “Flashbacks”. Each issue is supposedly a “reprint” of a lost issue, each showcasing a different era in Marvel’s history, starting with the Golden Era of comics to the 1960s Jack Kirby years to the disco-infused 1970s to today. Nothing is sacred: Deadpool rips on everything from “Nick Fury and the Howling Commandoes” to "Alpha Flight” to “Howard the Duck” to “Power Pack” (remember them?) to Thanos. Not even Power Man and Iron Fist get out of this unscathed.
This is my first introduction to “Deadpool”, other than the movies and an issue of “The Defenders” in which he guest-starred. I have to say, I liked it.
I also have to say that Ryan Reynolds was practically born to play Deadpool, in the same way that Robert Downey Jr. was born to play Iron Man.

I suppose it's all about the timing, in more ways than one.
After two weeks of working overnight shift, and temperatures that were consistently / depressingly well below freezing (breaking records in the northeast U.S.), it was a pleasant diversion - i.e. I NEEDED THE LAUGHS - to read Deadpool: Flashbacks. Our titular hero of sorts stars in a collection of stories set in the 50's through the 90's, with artwork that was amusingly representative of each decade.
For example, in the 70's-set 'Deadpool, Power Man and Iron Fist,' an Afro-sporting, .44-packing and bell-bottomed DP amusingly forces himself into a partnership with the Heroes For Hire to protect a corner bodega being pinched for protection money by local goons. Luke Cage, suffice to say, does not exactly warm to his new co-worker. Even better was a one-page homage to an infamous 'Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD' Jim Steranko-penned love scene (which featured Fury and his then-squeeze Valentina) that was censored at the time for being too hot for the '68-era Comics Code.
Speaking of Fury, he teams with DP in the initial story 'Death Comes to Tinsel Town (or The Last Hitler),' featuring a time-traveling der Furhrer jumping to mid-50's Hollywood to gun down his WWII nemesis.
Others include 'Wakandan Vacation' (no appearance by Black Panther, unfortunately, but still funny, especially with the off-color humor near the finale), 'Drinking Game' (featuring an actual deal with the devil, and saving an alcoholic Tony Stark), 'The One With the Super-Rare 3-D Cover' (DP heads to the Great White North; Alpha Flight makes an appearance . . . and are mocked), and a superhero-celebrity roast M.C.-ed by Howard the Duck.

Super stupid, weirdly funny and kind of disturbing. Everything a DP story needs. Expect for Bob. He took one of the stars with him, to wherever they hold him hostage.

I love all things Deadpool, so it's not exactly surprising that I really enjoyed this collection. The premise itself fits the character - all of the issues collected here are supposedly lost issues from various decades. When you consider there are stories from the mid-20th century and Deadpool wasn't actually created until 1991, it's pretty ridiculous. But I love the way they made each issue match the comic art style of the time - even Deadpool's costumes are different in each. Overall, it's just a fun read for fans.

This is a must-have for any comic book fanatics! It manages to be great read for those that are already fans of Deadpool, and a great introduction to those that haven't started reading the comics. Along with a collection of great stories, the bits of trivia scattered around the book are great to read and give a lot of insight on the making of the comics. Highly recommend it!

The more I read Deadpool, the more detached it becomes. Most of these stories were weird, lazily written, and themed with things that only a 15 year old boy would enjoy.
That said, some of it got surprisingly deep and dark, which made almost all the fluff worth it. Ended on a good note. Meandered around for a bit there, but it ended well.

One shots of Deadpool traveling to different points in time. It would probably make more sense (or as much sense as Deadpool makes) to read the issues surrounding these. Still fun but not necessary to any larger stories.

All the different flashback issues with Deadpool emerging himself in different time periods. I didn't know these were individual issues until I read the description.
I didn't like all of them but a few of the issues were funny

A colourful collection of comics. Writing can be a little dry at times with jokes that don't always land but lots of creative stories showcasing a wide range of Deadpool's eras and escapades. Some parts had me laughing out loud.

You don't have to be a die hard Deadpool fan to enjoy this collection. Had a great amount of snarky sarcastic fun.

This is a love letter to comics through the ages. Very well made, very funny, and just poignant enough to keep you interested.

I enjoyed these humorous tales of Deadpool, not a huge comic book fan of DP, more a movie fan of DP. Also some of the writing and pages looked shaded, making it harder to read, i thought.

Kicking off the volume with the Hitler issue is a bold start fr - I love ya Deadpool, even if you’re someone’s illegitimate father now, somehow

re-reading the (fake inventory issues shelved and filed away) flashback issues from originally published Deadpool (2012).

Hilarious. Just … hilarious. The Hitler rants about Nick Fury and his Howling Commandos alone is worth picking up a copy of this treat to read.
