Best advice I was ever given?

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

I don't even need zany, just pragmatic and businesslike. Someone who knows the "industry" of their new superpowered crime world and understands their place in it.

Basically someone who's not trying to take over the world, no giant space battles or hordes of people rushing at each other, just getting a dirty job done and making some money.

Even in the older, pre-comedy Taskmaster appearances, he was all about just handling the business of providing trained thugs, minions, and henchmen. He never twirled a mustache. Really hope they don't screw it up.

He seems to be firing the gun in his left hand into the ground, but giving he’s not looking where he’d shooting either gun I’m not sure he’s doing any better with the one in his right.

1. That man's femur is broken.
2. It's very easy to read his left shoulder as being in line with the rear light of the railroad signal, meaning this man is not Frank Castle, but Reed Richards. So maybe his leg is okay after all.

The moment right after that is him having to stop to chamber new rounds into his duel-wielded pump action shotguns, always a good choice for high-mobility combat.

I think that particular pump-action shotgun could be had in semi-automatic, and you know that's the kind Frank would have

Yeeep, SPAS-12. Has a little switch you can use to turn it into a semi-auto. Or more accurately, turn it into a pump so you can use loads that won't cycle it.

It also appears he doesn't have the one-handed stock on there so those things are probably gonna fly out of his hands.

But that's also the same gun Muldoon used in Jurassic Park.

I've tried one. I'd be more worried about him losing control of them forward and accidentally blowing off his own toes or a bystander's leg.

Man, in those Deadpool panels, F4 should really redesign the roof of their building. Looks kinda close to a swastika from the depending on the view

Actually, someone could probably do an essay or commentary about how to the people toiling below these beings with incredible powers, they see only symbols of their supposed virtue. But as soon as you're able to take a birds-eye view, to be on their level, suddenly the corruption and repression of the common person becomes evident
