Deadpool #23

In "Dead Reckoning Part 1," Deadpool embraces his grim destiny as the Mithras, hunting the alien threat Tiamat with grim resolve. As Zoe tries to warn him of an inevitable failure, Dixon cuts the connection—leaving Deadpool to face his fate alone. With a wounded body and a ticking bomb in his home, he stumbles back through the wreckage, unaware of the explosion waiting to claim him and Zoe, who rushes to his side. The issue’s bold, chaotic energy and layered storytelling are brought to life by Joe Kelly’s sharp script and Walter McDaniel’s dynamic art, with inks by Whitney McFarland, Alp Altiner, and John Livesay, and vibrant colors by Matt Hicks.
