The Epic Comic
The First 19 Deadpool Pieces Ever by Rob Liefeld
Artwork Details
|
DescriptionDeadpool first appeared in New Mutants #98 with an amazing cover and 7 interior pages. The response was overwhelming and Marvel shoved him into the first thing they could find - X-Force #1.When X-Force #1 was released in 1991 it became the #1 selling comic of all time, selling 5 million copies and coming bagged with 1 of 5 trading cards. This is the Deadpool card, one of the most widely printed Deadpool images ever. I once owned the complete OA from X-Force #1. This Deadpool trading card and page 6 were the two must-own pieces that made me pull the trigger. The top two dream pieces of the book for me. More than the cover, more than the opening DPS, and more than the rest of the pages combined. Here's a quote from Liefeld about that time: "Marvel had actually forwarded that mail on to me. I had thought they had sent me a washer or a dryer. I thought, "I'm getting some awesome gift from Marvel!" But it was all the mail from "New Mutants" #98. My editors said, "Rob, can we fast-track Deadpool? This is the most mail we've seen on a character in 15 years. People love him." It's why Deadpool is a trading card with "X-Force" #1, and a Fact File, and why he is the first 12 pages of "X-Force" #2. "X-Force" #1 is the second best-selling comic of all time; it sold five million copies. You have to ask yourself, "Why does the second issue begin with Deadpool for 12 pages?" Because the fans demanded it. " Social/Sharing |

What an awesome piece! And in color too! This is *my* iconic image of Deadpool as I had never seen NM98 before. This is the card I picked when I bought my pollybagged copy of XF1.
