Deadpool: Assassin #6

The penultimate chapter of Deadpool: Assassin closes in on Wade Wilson in a smoky brick corridor, fully kitted out in his black-and-red suit with crossed swords on his back, casually gesturing with one finger while defeated bodies sprawl at his feet and bullet holes pepper the wall behind him — all very much a Tuesday for the Merc with a Mouth. Mark Bagley and John Dell's cover composition frames Deadpool from a low angle that makes him look effortlessly in control, even as a bloody blade looms ominously in the foreground, hinting at the chaos that brought him to this "Exit" door. It's a confident, action-packed cap to what's been a sharp limited series from Marvel in 2018.
