Deadpool By Joe Kelly Omnibus [New Printing]

Joe Kelly’s hilarious, brutal, twisted and definitive take on Deadpool!

Wade Wilson is a self-loathing killer for hire — but he dreams of being a hero. So when an interdimensional organization reveals his destiny to save the world, is it the chance for redemption Deadpool has longed for — or is it too good to be true? Either way, with reluctant allies like Siryn, Monty, Weasel and Blind Al and formidable foes like Taskmaster, Typhoid Mary and T-Ray — who carries a soul-shattering secret that could destroy Deadpool — the odds are stacked against the Merc with a Mouth! DP locks horns with Daredevil — and locks lips with Death! Plus: A time-torn Wade crashes a classic issue of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN — and shares a modern-day team-up with the web-slinger!
