Cullen Bunn's Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe One Last Time is the highly anticipated finale to the unofficial trilogy, expanding the carnage beyond a single universe to encompass the entire Marvel multiverse. This latest installment sees Deadpool facing off against a wider array of twisted and powerful variants, from Cap-Wolves to Worldbreaker Hulks, and even obscure characters unseen in decades.
IGN recently spoke with Bunn, revealing that while the initial Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe was unplanned, the idea of a multiverse-spanning sequel was pitched early on. The challenge of escalating the conflict led to this multiversal expansion, allowing for a wider range of creative exploration and a more epic scope.
Artist Dalibor Talajić returns, promising a visually stunning continuation of his unique style, further enhancing the contrast between the brutal reality and Deadpool's internal perception. While this installment stands alone, keen readers may notice subtle connections to the previous entries. Bunn highlights that this Deadpool is arguably the most sympathetic yet, with a mission and mindset that sets this story apart. The book aims to create a scenario where readers might even find themselves rooting for Deadpool's success, despite the carnage.
