From 2014.
Archer & Armstrong. Quantum & Woody. Together. Except out of those four names, you really only need to know one name:
Deadpool.
As in, they totally Deadpooled this series. "They" as in James Asmus and Fred Van Lente. Asmus is the writer of Quantum while Van Lente is responsible for Archer. I actually came away from the Quantum reboot when I sampled it thinking somewhat positively. But yeah, totally Deadpooled.
It's more disappointing seeing Van Lente in this kind of form. I know him best from Action Philosophers and the various Hercules comics he did with Greg Pak for Marvel. Those were funny. Here, he's, yeah, Deadpooled.
Look, I appreciate hobos just as much as anyone else. But enough about Asmus and Van Lente. Ha! Seriously, though, this is a bunch of nonsense. And I'm not even sure "Delinquents" was the best term to use for those hobos. I mean, bozos.
Whatever.
This may be the real legacy of the great Giffen/DeMatteis/Maguire Bwa-ha-ha League. Sad to see.
