Deadpool #42

Oct 2011 · Marvel · 2.99 USD
“Institutionalized Conclusion”

In "Institutionalized Conclusion," Deadpool’s chaotic antics collide with the grim mission of Foolkiller in a prison where sanity is the real enemy. As Dr. Whitby grapples with her own feelings, Deadpool’s last chance at freedom comes with a dangerous twist—his mind slipping toward quiet surrender just as he’s set loose. Written by Daniel Way and illustrated by Carlo Barberi, with inks by Walden Wong and colors by Ferran Daniel, this issue delivers a razor-sharp blend of dark humor and psychological tension, all wrapped in Dave Johnson’s striking cover art.

Deadpool is a fool. Foolkiller kills fools. Foolkiller does his level best to kill Deadpool.
