Some jobs are just too tough for your average fast-talkin’ high-tech gun-for-hire. Sometimes...to get the job done right...you need someone crazier than a sack’a ferrets. You need Wade Wilson. The Crimson Comedian. The Regeneratin’ Degenerate. The Merc with a Mouth…
During the Secret Invasion, Deadpool was hired by Nick Fury to steal vital Skrull bio- data. But Norman Osborn intercepted the transmission of the data and used it to take down the Skrull Queen—which made him famous, and Deadpool one ticked-off (and unpaid) merc.
Deadpool then hired the reformed villain Taskmaster to help him take on Norman’s covert strike force, the Thunderbolts, and squeeze the cash out of Osborn. Not only did Deadpool and Taskmaster defeat the Thunderbolts, but by the end of the battle, Deadpool managed to steal Osborn’s gold card…and finally got paid! Well…at least enough to cover the money he owed Taskmaster. But Wade’s expecting a payday all his own and he’s not finished with Norman...not by a long shot…
Unfortunately Osborn feels the same way about Deadpool and he’s just sent the unstoppable assassin Bullseye (now masquerading as the Avenger Hawkeye) to take Deadpool out once and for all.
The ensuing fight didn’t go very well for Wade...
