Wolverine Fights to Avenge Deadpool’s Death in Finale of Marvel Team-Up Series (Exclusive)

The final chapter of Marvel’s Deadpool and Wolverine team-up series finds Logan on the ropes and Wade Wilson apparently dead. Marvel Comics is capitalizing on the Deadpool & Wolverine hype by releasing a miniseries that features the Merc With a Mouth and the Canadian Canuck. The X-Men characters usually are busy in their own solo series, but with a big-budget film on the horizon, now is the time to see them working together on the comics page. So far things haven’t been going well for our titular heroes, especially since Deadpool is dead and Wolverine is fighting for his life.

ComicBook has the exclusive preview of Deadpool & Wolverine: WWIII #3 by Joe Kelly, Adam Kubert, and Frank Martin. It picks up with Wolverine in a fierce battle with one of Delta’s creatures in the Siberian snow. The entire time Wolverine is being watched by Those Who Watch, who want some more bloodshed. Wolverine’s internal dialogue tells the reader that he believes Deadpool was killed last issue, though we all know Wade Wilson always cheats death. That is if you don’t count an upcoming storyline that features Deadpool dying (for real).
