Last week, the electrifying first trailer for “Deadpool & Wolverine” burst onto the scene, igniting a frenzy of anticipation for the upcoming addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Now, in a perfectly timed move, Marvel has unveiled a thrilling new comic venture featuring the iconic duo of Wade Wilson and Logan.
Entitled “Deadpool & Wolverine: WW3,” this three-issue limited series is masterfully crafted by the seasoned mercenary maestro Joe Kelly and the talented artist Adam Kubert.
In this gripping narrative, Wade Wilson and Logan find themselves pitted against the formidable new antagonist, Delta, whose machinations threaten to plunge the world into the chaos of World War 3.
Marvel’s tantalizing synopsis sets the stage: “The enigmatic Delta espouses the virtues of change. Change, he believes, is a force for good. But as he targets Deadpool, with Wolverine ensnared in his web of schemes, one must question whether the third time truly spells fortune or doom. Brace yourself for the eruption of WWIII as the most unconventional duo in comics takes center stage.”
Adam Kubert’s striking cover for the inaugural issue showcases our mismatched heroes, their visages marked by the scars of battle yet undeterred and resolute amidst the turmoil that surrounds them.
In an interview with IGN, Joe Kelly expressed his excitement about collaborating once again with Adam Kubert, citing their previous work together during his formative years at Marvel as a major draw. “I’ve been a fan of his ever since – both as an artist and a person,” Kelly remarked.
Kelly highlighted the opportunity to delve into Wolverine’s character as a driving force behind his involvement in the project. “While this is undoubtedly a buddy book, Logan serves as the linchpin of the story, allowing me to explore this beloved character in depth. His unique perspective and voice provided a fascinating angle for this epic team-up,” Kelly explained.
“Deadpool & Wolverine: WW3” arrives hot on the heels of a forthcoming Deadpool solo series, slated for release in April. Penned by Cody Ziglar and illustrated by Rogê Antônio, this series promises to delve into the complex relationship between Wade and his daughter, Ellie.
Mark your calendars as “Deadpool & Wolverine: WW3 #1” hits comic book stores courtesy of Marvel Comics on May 1st, delivering a pulse-pounding adventure that is sure to captivate fans old and new alike.
