Deadpool

Few characters capture the chaotic, self-aware energy of Marvel's Modern Age quite like this Deadpool, who burst onto the scene in 2016 courtesy of Scott Koblish and has been carving out a wild corner of the Marvel Universe ever since. With 35 catalog appearances across titles like Deadpool, Deadpool and Wolverine, and Wade Wilson: Deadpool, this is a figure deeply embedded in the merc's sprawling, irreverent world. The company here is gloriously unhinged — sharing pages with Wade Wilson himself, Spider-Man, Wolverine, and Eleanor Camacho, this character exists at the crossroads of Marvel's most colorful personalities. If you love the anything-goes, fourth-wall-flirting spirit of modern Marvel, this is a corner of the catalog well worth exploring.
