by Olly MacNamee
We had previously offered you a sneaky peak at unlettered pages from the forthcoming umpteenth relaunch of Deadpool #1, this time round from writer Kelly Thompson, artist Chris Bachalo. But now we have a fully lettered preview of the debut issue, coming from Marvel Wednesday 20th November. So, let’s look into the comic in which Deadpool takes on the King of the Monsters in his new kingdom of … Staten Island? Wait, what now?
Deadpool’s newest mercenary job has him going after the King of Monsters, who has claimed a new kingdom for his monstrous subjects…on Staten Island! But you know what they say, when you come at the king, you better not miss! The Merc with a Mouth finds himself neck deep in political intrigue, monster law, and a monster hunter out for blood! It’s like The Crown but with even more swords and monsters! Can Deadpool’s smooth charisma and deft diplomacy allow him to keep his head, or will he be royally screwed?
