Deadpool #2
This Panini France edition brings the opening arc of Cody Ziglar's 2024 Deadpool relaunch — the tenth volume of the character's history — to French-language readers for the first time. The US source material (Deadpool #2, 2024) is narratively significant because it lays the groundwork for one of the most consequential status-quo shifts in Wade Wilson's decades-long publication history: the methodical stripping away of his healing factor and his eventual death at the hands of new villain Death Grip, which clears the stage for Eleanor 'Ellie' Camacho to inherit the Deadpool mantle. This issue also establishes the boutique mercenary agency that serves as the series' structural spine, with Taskmaster pressed into a managerial role that recontextualises him from antagonist to reluctant ally. As a reprint edition, it ensures that one of Marvel's more daring legacy-character experiments — passing a title to a teenage biracial Latina — reaches an audience well beyond the direct-market English-language readership.
A 2025 Panini France edition of Deadpool #2 features Taurin Clarke handling art, inks, and colors throughout, with Clarke also responsible for the cover pencils and inks. The issue centers on Deadpool, Wade Wilson, and Eleanor Camacho in a story that continues the character's signature blend of action and dark humor.

The US source issue, Deadpool (2024) #2, was written by Cody Ziglar — an Emmy-nominated television writer whose prior Marvel work on Miles Morales: Spider-Man earned him the Deadpool assignment — with pencils and inks by Rogê Antônio and a cover by Taurin Clarke; it carried a FOC date of April 8, 2024 and a Parental Advisory rating. Panini France launched its 2025 monthly Deadpool series to bring Ziglar's run to French readers, with the first volume collecting the earliest issues of the US series under the title 'Liens du sang' (Blood Bond); the second issue of the Panini series continues that same opening arc. The series was positioned partly to capitalise on renewed mainstream awareness of the character following the theatrical release of Deadpool & Wolverine.

- Deadpool (2024) #2 (the US source issue) picks up directly after Wade botches a job in Montreal and makes a deadly new enemy of Death Grip, a villain described as a failed mystic obsessed with mortality.
