Deadpool Buries Marvel Universe in Final Bloodbath

Cullen Bunn's Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe One Last Time is the highly anticipated finale to the Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe saga. This time, Deadpool isn't just targeting one universe; he's taking on the entire Marvel multiverse. The series promises a fresh take on the premise, featuring a multitude of variant heroes and villains, including Cap-Wolves and Worldbreaker Hulks.

IGN recently interviewed Bunn, revealing that while he initially pitched a multiverse storyline, the timing wasn't right until now. He emphasizes the unique approach, showcasing Deadpool battling both familiar and obscure variants across various realities. Bunn highlights the extensive research undertaken to select the most impactful and compelling variant characters, promising an unprecedentedly epic Deadpool story.

While the first two Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe books stand alone, this third installment offers a subtle connection to previous storylines, allowing observant readers to discover intriguing links. However, the core narrative functions independently, making it accessible to newcomers.

Artist Dalibor Talajić, who previously elevated the series with dynamic artistic shifts, will once again contribute a unique visual style, particularly in his depiction of different multiversal realities and a never-before-seen version of a key character.

Bunn describes the Deadpool in this story as more sympathetic than in previous iterations, presenting a scenario where readers might even root for his success. This shift in Deadpool's motivations and mental state sets this installment apart from its predecessors.
