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's rampage isn't confined to a single universe; he's targeting the entire Marvel multiverse. This marks the third installment, though each story operates independently.
IGN recently interviewed Bunn, revealing that the initial concept was a multiversal slaughter, predating the first Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe. The challenge of escalating the conflict led to this multiversal expansion, pitting Deadpool against twisted versions of classic heroes and villains, including Cap-Wolves and Worldbreaker Hulks.
Artist Dalibor Talajić's visual style will continue to evolve, showcasing diverse interpretations of various realities and character variants. Bunn hints at the inclusion of obscure characters unseen in over 30 years.
While a standalone story, keen readers might find subtle connections to the previous volumes. This iteration presents a more sympathetic Deadpool, with his motivations and mental state setting it apart from its predecessors. The question posed is: Will readers root for Deadpool's success in his multiversal massacre?
