Season's Beatings #1

Snow is falling over a New York City rooftop, and Deadpool has apparently decided to celebrate the holidays by juggling grenades — explosions blooming in the purple winter sky above him — while a crowd of onlookers that includes Spider-Man, the Thing, and several other Marvel heroes watch in varying degrees of alarm from behind a brick parapet. The cover by Marcos Martín carries a heartfelt tribute to Stan Lee (1922–2018) across the top, lending this festive one-shot a quiet warmth beneath all the chaos. It's a perfect snapshot of Marvel's ability to mix genuine sentiment with gleeful absurdity, and Season's Beatings #1 makes for a wonderfully offbeat holiday read.
