Cullen Bunn's Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe One Last Time is the highly anticipated finale to the Deadpool Kills saga. This time, Deadpool's murderous rampage isn't confined to a single universe; he's tackling the entire Marvel multiverse. The series promises a fresh take, featuring battles against warped versions of classic heroes and villains, including Cap-Wolves and Worldbreaker Hulks.
IGN recently interviewed Bunn, revealing that while he initially pitched a multiverse storyline alongside other ideas (including Deadpool Kills the Marvel Cosmic Universe and Deadpool Kills the Marvel Zombies), the timing for this particular story is now ideal. Bunn emphasizes that this installment stands alone, though observant readers might find connections to the previous entries.

The creative team of Bunn and artist Dalibor Talajić returns, with Talajić promising a visually stunning experience that expands upon the stylistic shifts seen in Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe Again. This time, the focus is on portraying diverse versions of familiar characters across various realities.
Unlike the previous entries, which offered distinct reasons for Deadpool's actions (nihilism and brainwashing, respectively), this installment presents a more sympathetic Deadpool, with Bunn teasing that readers might even find themselves rooting for him. The story promises a unique perspective on Deadpool's motivations and mental state.
Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe One Last Time #1 is set for release on April 2nd, 2025. The interview hints at the inclusion of obscure characters unseen in over 30 years, promising epic battles and a truly unforgettable conclusion to the trilogy.
