Deadpool #5
Deadpool #5 (1997) delivers a brutal, darkly comic turn as Wade, finally free from his cursed condition, sets his sights on Killebrew—the doctor who once tortured him in the Weapon X program—only to find his path blocked by Siryn. Meanwhile, T-Ray remains a relentless shadow, hunting Deadpool with a personal vendetta. Written by Joe Kelly and brought to life with sharp, kinetic art by Ed McGuinness and Kevin Lau, with inks by Nathan Massengill and vibrant colors by Matthew Paine and Digital Chameleon, the issue’s cover by McGuinness and Massengill captures the chaos perfectly.
