Deadpool Nerdy 30 Announced by Marvel

No Comments

Marvel Comics has announced a Deadpool 30th anniversary special. As reported by Comicbook.com, a host of key creatives from the character’s history, including co-creator Rob Liefield, are returning for Deadpool Nerdy 30 #1

 

Liefeld returned to do a special cover for the issue, which we have included for you to check out below. Mike Hawthorne and Ed McGuiness are also contributing covers to the book. On the writer side, Skottie Young, Kelly Thompson, Daniel Way, Fabian Nicieza, and Joe Kelly, as well as duo Gerry Duggan and Brian Posehn, are all penning contributions. 

 

“As the Nurse wiped the grime from his lips and placed him in my tender, caring arms, it was love at first sight,” Liefeld said. “The pregnancy had been a difficult one, I was relieved to finally show him to the world at large. Then he puked in my face and cried non stop for 98 hours. I hugged him tighter. Mess after mess, I’m happy to clean up after him, no matter the level of decapitation. We’re family, and now as Deadpool turns 30, I couldn’t be a prouder Dadpool. Marvel is determined to throw a giant bash for our favorite Merc, (sorry, Mando), and I’m thrilled to join in all the outrageous fun. Happy 30th Birthday son!”

 

Here is the synopsis for Deadpool Nerdy 30 #1

 

“Deadpool’s turning 30! And to help celebrate, we’ve assembled some of his classic storytellers to tell tales of Wade Wilson birthdays past, present and future! A first birthday with time-traveling assassins! A sweet sixteen party that would make Molly Ringwald weep! A 100th birthday that could only be celebrated in grand Deadpool style! Blow out the candles! Pin the cybernetic arm on the Cable! And open this present, just for you!”

 

“The most important comic character is 30, and his party is the only one that Brian and I would break quarantine for. In fact, we’ve been wearing our Deadpool masks waiting for our phones to ring the entire pandemic. We were thrilled to have our time with him and equally excited to get to return once more,” Duggan said. 

 

“It is with great pride that I watch our little boy, Wade, celebrate his thirtieth birthday,” Nicieza said. “It feels like just ten thousand, nine-hundred and eighty days ago that I wrote his first words in a spiral notebook while commuting home from a three-martini lunch day at Marvel. Or as we called it, Thursday. And it feels like tomorrow that I’ll be auctioning that notebook off to the highest bidder. Thanks to Rob, Marvel, and a plucky Canadian lad who dared to dream of wearing uncomfortable screen-printed Lycra for a hefty percentage of the gross. Deadpool probably would have demanded it be a percentage of the net…”

Deadpool debuted in the pages of New Mutants #98 in 1991. He has been a mainstay of the Marvel universe ever since. The character got a huge popularity boost when the Deadpool movie was released in 2016. The franchise has earned more than $1.5 billion at the box office. Disney is finally moving ahead with Deadpool 3. Ryan Reynolds will return as Wade Wilson, with writers Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Loeglin (Bob’s Burgers) set to pen the screenplay. No director has been confirmed.

Deadpool Nerdy 30 #1 hits shelves in March.
