This was endearing, interesting and even unique in the second part of her story arc. Gurihiru's art fits perfectly with the character but the second artist not so much (thankfully, it's only for 5-10 issues). In short, this was a joy to read. Gwenpool is my favorite new character in Marvel. You know, the one that isn't from the 60s or 70s.

Unfortunately, the second half of the omnibus is a bit weaker. Not terrible, but not up to the same high bar as the first half. I recommend pausing for at least a day at that point, just to ease the contrast. West Coast Avengers" isn't a bad series, and it works well as a follow-up to the Kate Bishop "Hawkeye" series (by the same writer). However, reading the whole series in one go makes me notice the dangling plot threads which never got resolved. As a Gwenpool story, it's not particularly significant, except for her romance with Quentin Quire. Jim Johnson of Comic Book Resources called The Unbelievable Gwenpool #1 a "fun and decidedly comical precedent that bodes well for the series," asserting, "As this issue combines a sweet and beloved character with one of comic's deadliest and most sarcastic mercenaries, Hastings places himself on a tightrope with his story; falling off to one side means developing Gwen as a little too sugary for hardboiled Deadpool fans, and the other means making her a killer in the eyes of those who see her as an alternate version of Peter Parker's onetime girlfriend. He largely dodges that choice for now, and justifiably so, and so this high wire act is a persuasive selling point for the series' upcoming issues for now. [...] There's a kind of uncertain demeanor to "The Unbelievable Gwenpool" #1, where Hastings begins to explore his character in earnest while remaining vague about the concept's longterm workability. For now, though, the comic carries a lot of darkly humorous fun and has earned the benefit of any doubt." [71]
