It has been a big year for Marvel and that is mainly due to the success of July’s Deadpool & Wolverine which saw the unlikely duo team up to save the universe.
The blockbuster movie saw Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds get recruited by the Time Variance Authority, and alongside some other famous faces from Marvel history, manage to help safeguard the multiverse.

Spending weeks at the top of the box office charts, Deadpool & Wolverine has inspired fans and left them wanting more so it is no surprise that Marvel Comics is set to cash in on this much-loved pair.

Of course, this is not the first time that Wade and Logan have teamed up in the comics with the pair previously coming together for Deadpool & Wolverine: WWIII and a “Weapon X-Traction” story.
However, the brand-new Deadpool/Wolverine series will be the first comic since the hit Marvel movie and will see creators Benjamin Percy and Joshua Cassara reunite since helping to launch X-Force.
Not only that but Percy is no stranger to Logan after penning the ongoing Wolverine series.
Deadpool/Wolverine #1 kicks off with our Merc with a Mouth gatecrashing a mobster’s funeral in typical Deadpool style and is set to go on sale on 1 January, 2025.

For its creators, there is no holding back when it comes to the brand-new series.
“This is all to say: we were both so damn excited to get the band back together,” Percy told IGN.
Deadpool/Wolverine is us cartwheeling onto the stage and shredding our guitars once more while smoke machines churn and pyrotechnics explode all around us.”
He continued: “I’ve never stopped writing Logan for Marvel, and this is simply the next chapter in his journey.

But of course things have changed for the mutants, and we’re leaning into this new normal in the series.”
Luckily for us, ComicBook has our first sneak peek at Deadpool/Wolverine #1 including Wade Wilson attending the aforementioned funeral in disguise as an old man.
Hopefully this new Marvel Comics series will inspire more movies featuring our favourite unlikely duo.
