Description

The Merc with a Mouth is back — and this time, the planet has been invaded by shape-shifting Skrulls. While every other Marvel hero scrambles to deal with the crisis, Deadpool sees opportunity. Writer Daniel Way launches his celebrated run on Deadpool with this opening volume, collecting the first five issues of the 2008 series. Wade Wilson's fourth-wall-breaking insanity is on full display as he navigates the chaos of Secret Invasion with his own particular brand of deranged cunning, delivering equal parts spectacular action and pitch-black comedy.

Collecting Deadpool #1–5, this volume contains two complete arcs — the Secret Invasion tie-in and a follow-up arc featuring zombie plastic surgeons — establishing the tone and voice that would define Way's long and popular run on the character. With art by Paco Medina and Carlo Barberi, this is the Deadpool story that introduced a new generation of readers to the character's modern incarnation.
