Deadpool and Wolverine (2024)
Hey, hey! It's been a while. I figured I'd sum it up the movie Deadpool and Wolverine (2024) as a parody of "The Dark Knight Returns" #2 cover. To be honest, it is less a movie and more a string of vignettes, nostalgic Member Berries, and so many fun cameos and Easter Eggs that I had a blast watching it. I'm always a sucker for meta-humor, alternate dimensions, and fourth-wall breaks, so the entire Deadpool franchise was right up my alley. (Deadpool's start in the comics, though, never really clicked too much with me, aside from a few of his later runs when he fully became what he is thought of today.)
It was great seeing Cassandra Nova on screen, and Emma Corrin was fun to see in that role. I won't spoil any of the cameos--but most of them were fun and amusing in their own right, along with a few that I was genuinely surprise seeing (I avoided most of the Spoilers I could).
It was definitely strange hearing so many "F" bombs in a Marvel/Disney movie. Not that it bothers me, generally, but the cognitive dissonance was a bit of an adjustment. All that said, it is a movie to turn off your brain and let the nerd nostalgia and comic book deep cuts wash over you.

STEP ONE: Alas, I don't have any digital pencils, per se, as I got a little delete happy with some extraneous Layers and accidentally deleted the Pencils. So, here are the digital inks, instead, done on a 1,5000px x 2,000px canvas @300dpi.

STEP TWO: I exported a .png of the inks from Clip Studio Paint into Rebelle 7. Clip Studio Paint has an excellent Brush Engine, while the Paint Engine in Rebelle is great, and to paraphrase Jack Sprat: between them both they keep the digital platters clean... or at least can be used together to make a digital comic page of sorts.
