Deadpool Classic #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection kicks off the Merc with a Mouth's early adventures, reprinting his first solo series from 1997. It follows Wade Wilson's chaotic, fourth-wall-breaking antics as he takes on jobs ranging from assassinations to superhero team-ups, introducing key allies like Blind Al and Weasel while clashing with foes such as T-Ray and the Juggernaut. The volume also ties into broader Marvel events, including a crossover with the X-Men's X-Cutioner's Song storyline.
In "The Beginning of the End, Part One," Deadpool returns from a Bolivia mission with a pocketful of revolutionary currency and a target on his back, ready to confront Patch at Merc Central. His next assignment takes him to Antarctica, where he clashes with Sasquatch and accidentally triggers a meltdown at a gamma research station—only to realize he’s the only one who can stop a continent-wide radiation disaster. As he grapples with the fallout, a tempting offer from Zoe and Noah at Landau, Luckman and Lake arrives, but Deadpool’s trademark brand of chaos makes him reluctant to play hero. Written by Joe Kelly and illustrated by Ed McGuinness, with dynamic inks by Nathan Massengill and Norman Lee, and vibrant colors by Chris Lichtner and Digital Chameleon, this issue features a cover by Rob Liefeld.
