Deadpool #34
In "Chapter X Verse One: Send in the Clowns," Deadpool wakes from a surreal nightmare—trapped in a trailer park full of canceled comic characters, all penned by new series writer Christopher Priest—only to find himself adrift in a healing chamber, his body dissolving into goo after a near-death experience. As a lab assistant monitors his rapid decay, Deadpool recounts his fall from grace as the Kingpin’s assassin, replaced by Bullseye, before a chilling surprise: Death herself floats beside him in the chamber. With art by Paco Diaz, Christian DiBari, Gus Vazquez, and inks by Rodney Ramos and John Holdredge, and colors by Shannon Blanchard, this 1999 issue blends dark humor with existential dread, all under Dan Norton’s striking cover.
