Written by Joe Kelly. Art by Ed McGuinness. Cover by Ed McGuinness. Representing the landmark first issue of Joe Kelly and Ed McGuinness' character-defining run! Wade Wilson really finds his voice on a mission to Antarctica, where he comes face to fist with Sasquatch of Alpha Flight! After brutalizing a crew of mercenaries, Deadpool takes on another "easy" mission: taking out an unmanned research station. Simple, right? Unfortunately, it's not only very manned, but also brimming with gamma radiation! Kelly's hilarious script and McGuinness' larger-than-life action proved a winning combination in the issue that launched Deadpool's first-ever ongoing series - featuring Deadpool's fan-favorite pal, Weasel; the mercenary hangout that is Hellhouse; and the first appearance of Wade's imprisoned housemate, Blind Al! It's one of the all-time great Marvel comic books, boldly re-presented in its original form, ads and all! 56 pages, full color. Rated T Cover price $5.99.
