Deadpool: Dead

In 2012, Marvel published a single, self-contained issue of Deadpool: Dead, a standalone story that played with the idea of the Merc with a Mouth's mortality. Illustrated by Dave Johnson, this one-shot offered a darkly humorous, standalone snapshot of the character's world, distinct from his ongoing series at the time. It remains a curious, compact entry in Deadpool's publication history, notable for its creative team's singular take.
