American Update: Catalogue Expansion: Deadpool!!!
*Marvel: Continuing our grudging acknowledgment of the passing years, we admit to our catalogue listings another ‘modern’ series, but one whose popularity and appeal we can’t deny. Deadpool! Marvel’s Merc-with-A-Mouth, after the four-issue Circle Chase mini-series in 1993, became the Merc-With-A-Monthly when his own ongoing title debuted in 1997, establishing the irreverent, lecherous and bloodthirsty anti-hero that an entire generation has come to love. We have the entire Deadpool: Circle Chase mini-series, plus the first ten issues of the 1997 monthly, backed up by a selection of others from that run, and the 2008 Deadpool ongoing from #1 upwards. As you would expect from comparatively recent comics, these are in high grade, with none dipping below VF-, and the majority NM or better, with many achieving the comparatively-rare grade of Mint – and you know how stingy we are with that grade! The ‘Pool’s prices have spiralled up over the last half-decade because of his popularity – but we predict they will escalate still further once his forthcoming movie starring Rhino Reynolds is released, so get ’em while they’re kind-of affordable! Because You Demanded It, Pilgrim!
