Deadpool Killustrated

In 2013, Marvel unleashed a darkly comedic twist on the multiverse with Deadpool Killustrated, a single-issue one-shot by writer Cullen Bunn and artist Matteo Lolli. The premise sends the Merc with a Mouth on a murderous rampage through classic literature, systematically eliminating iconic characters from fiction. It matters as a bold, self-contained experiment that pushed Deadpool’s meta-humor into literary territory, offering a standalone, no-holds-barred take on the character’s signature mayhem.
