Warning: contains spoilers for Deadpool: Black, White, and Blood #1!
Deadpool just turned one of the mighty Thor's best-known battlecries into a lame (and epic) pun. The Merc with a Mouth lives up to his name in Deadpool: Black, White and Blood, a collection of three stories all told with the three titular colors. Red All Over, written by Tom Taylor with art by Phil Noto and lettering by VC's Joe Sabino, concerns itself with the best possible subject for a black, white and red comic: a zombie zebra.
At the start of the issue, Deadpool is desperate. He's reached out to his "friends", but both Spider-Man and Wolverine refused to answer his calls (Mary Jane even says "Nothing good can come from answering that" to Peter). He finally reaches Gabrielle Kinney, who agrees to accompany Deadpool to his latest mission: bringing down zombie lab animals...and the people who made them. The duo kills a large zombie zebra ("A zombiebra" says Deadpool) and searches for the man responsible.
Deadpool and Gabby eventually make their way to Mr. Palmive, a corrupt corporate executive in charge of the entire operation. As Deadpool orders Gabby to leave - and escort the innocent baby zebras away from the building - he admits that she's become something much better than what her creators intended (Kinney, a clone of Wolverine, was born and raised in an experimental Alchemax laboratory to be used as a weapon). But Mr. Palmive is undeterred; his military contracts are lucrative enough to continue his operation. "You want to make more zombie zebras?" asks Deadpool. "I say thee NEIGH!" He subsequently guts Mr. Palmive with his sword, ending the story.
Thor's "I say thee nay!" battlecry is a favorite of the Asgardian; he's used it in nearly every era, most notably during the Silver Age of comics while many of his stories were written by Stan Lee. His other catchphrases are just as frequently used; "I would have words with thee!" is best-known for being utilized in 1999's Ultron Unlimited. It's certainly within Deadpool's character to take epic moments from well-known storylines and turn them into jokes - but his defense of Gabby is absolutely sincere. As the result of a lab experiment himself, Deadpool understands how she feels; despite his penchant for violence and over-the-top comedic antics, Wade Wilson can occasionally be quite a compassionate character.
It's no secret that Deadpool hides his pain behind comedy. The reader may laugh at Deadpool's many jokes and incredibly high body count, but behind the mask there exists a three-dimensional character who wants to save as many innocent people as he can - primarily "monsters" like himself. Deadpool's mockery of Thor is hilarious, but one mustn't forget the truth behind the jokes.
