Deadpool #40
In "Institutionalized Part One," Deadpool finds himself locked away at Crossmoore Prison, where he's handed over to the care of Dr. Whitby. With his usual brand of chaos, he quickly turns the facility upside down—taking on inmates, staff, and even the ever-stoic Foolkiller, Kurt Gerhardt—while the line between madness and method begins to blur. Written by Daniel Way and illustrated by Carlo Barberi, with inks by Walden Wong and colors by Ferran Daniel, the issue’s cover by Dave Johnson captures the grim, high-stakes tension of a maniac in a world built to contain him.

Deadpool is sent to Crossmoore Prison where he is placed under the psychiatric care of Dr. Whitby. Not a big fan of prisons, shrinks, psych wards or the criminally insane, Deadpool starts tearing into everyone and everything in sight, including fellow inmate Kurt Gerhardt, otherwise known as Foolkiller.
