Even though I hold a special place in my heart for the Avengers (both Classic and New) but I have to admit that being the bad guy is quite a lot of fun, and the Dark Avengers are a pretty mean bunch.

Bullseye has always been one of my favourite supervillains, and at the risk of being slapped silly by every Hawkeye fan on the internet, I think he makes a very good Hawkeye. Throw Deadpool, with his classic mix of inane bantering, self-aware speech boxes and fourth-wall shattering, rib-achingly funny one-liners, and you've got yourself a winner.

Without wishing to give too much away, Deadpool dons a suit made out of meat in this chapter, and the sight of him standing there with a pig's head as a helmet alone was worth buying this comic for.

If you're a fan of Bullseye, or Deadpool, or both, or you just want a good laugh, then I'd heartily recommend buying this. Besides Deadpool and Taskmaster's encounter with Norman Osborn's new Blunder- sorry, ThunderBolts, this has been the highlight of the Dark Reign saga so far for me. Thanks, DP, you've made a fan happy once again.
