Ben Parker

A Marvel character who made his entrance in the pages of Deadpool #0 in 1998, Ben Parker was brought to life by the wickedly creative team of Joe Kelly and Yancey Labat — the same minds who defined the Merc with a Mouth's wildest early adventures. His story unfolds across a wonderfully offbeat corner of the Marvel universe, where he keeps company with the likes of Blind Al, Porcupine, and Kangaroo. Preserved in the beloved Deadpool Epic Collection and Joe Kelly's celebrated complete run, he's a small but genuine piece of one of comics' most irreverent eras — a curiosity worth tracking down for the dedicated Deadpool devotee.
