Why Deadpool?

DOZENS of variant covers.

I get the appeal... he's Spiderman, Snake Eyes and Bugs Bunny all rolled into one. But isn't this kind of overexposure the kind of thing that killed the viability of "hot" characters like Punisher, Cable and Ghost Rider in the nineties?

At least wait until the movie is actually in production and the hollywood hype machine gears up.

Yep, he'll be the beaten horse before too long. Just like Venom.

[The Toyroom]

Never really liked the character....

Yeah; but it also makes them fixtures.

I think the phrase is: "drive it 'til the wheels fall off."

Isn't Deadpool already overexposed? Every "hardcore" comic nerd on the planet thinks he's hip cause they like Deadpool.

Once you reach that saturation point, it sort of manifests into hate. Soon he'll be everyone's most hated. Then repeat.
