The beauty of Deadpool is not his uncanny ability to walk away from pretty much any conflict unscathed courtesy of his healing factor. The true beauty of Wade Wilson is his self-awareness, breaking the fourth wall of narrative with the knowledge that he is a comic book character along with knowledge of the real world as well. Combine that with his big mouth, and hilarity often ensues.

Add in a team-up series with Spider-Man himself whose along for the ride, and that's just pure comedic entertainment. Such is the case in Spider-Man/Deadpool #6, when Deadpool desires to brand himself and get his own movie made, needing Spider-Man's help as an associate producer. While the duo fails to get DP's movie off the ground, they do end up catching a viewing of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (or at least, the Marvel version of it.) DP and Spidey both have more than a few critiques, many of which echo ones fans will have seen in the real world.

From the start, Spider-Man shows some hesitation in helping Wade make a Deadpool film (the first Deadpool film and Batman v Superman had just come out around the same time a few months prior to this issue's release). Spider-Man bemoans the fact that the latest superhero films are so dark and gloomy, and that all the heroes just want to fight each other -- a double reference to both Batman v Superman as well as Marvel's own Civil War film. DP also claims that he demanded that his own film get an R rating, which was an actual big deal at the time during Deadpool's production. Unfortunately, despite the pair's recommendations to the producer, the film that ends up getting made is dark, gloomy, and features heroes fighting one another... and not featuring Deadpool at all. That's show biz.

As fans can enjoy in Spider-Man/Deadpool #6the film that actually gets made instead is Nighthawk v Hyperion: Yawn of Boredom. Obviously, the film is a parody of the real Batman v Superman, using the closest Marvel Marvel versions of Batman and Superman. The poster also calls out that audiences "won't believe their mothers share the same name," which turned out to be a big point of contention from viewers of BvS, thanks to the 'Martha' scene which proved to be a major turning point in the heroes' war. Deadpool critiques how quick a turn it was, and how odd it comes across for most viewers. Spider-Man throws in the complaint that the film spends too much time teasing instead of satisfying (a criticism viewers could level at almost every blockbuster these days).

Despite Deadpool being disheartened that he couldn't get his film off the ground, Spider-Man encourages him to cheer up, saying he'll probably get another chance, as Hollywood will keep rebooting the same idea over and over again -- a reference to Sony Pictures' multiple Spider-Man reboots. It's a scenario which could only truly happen in a Deadpool comic, and the execution is perfect, especially considering the references to Marvel's own films, as well as the whole issue's narrative being a Deadpool version of Amazing Spider-Man #14 from Stan Lee and Ditko, where Spider-Man was approached to make a movie and was also altered by the producer into something completely different.
