A highly skilled assassin with Wolverine’s healing ability, an abundance of scars (of both the mental and physical variety), a lack of complete sanity, and a warped sense of wisecracking humor, Deadpool is one of Marvel’s most intriguing characters, and horror hounds can see him depicted in a retro style reminscient of a drive-in zombie movie once again in Marvel's upcoming Return of the Living Deadpool comic book series, a follow-up to last year's Night of the Living Deadpool. Eager to see what's next for Deadpool in the zombie apocalypse? We have a set of preview pages from the first issue that hits shelves in February.

"Prepare for pools full of undead Deadpools as RETURN OF THE LIVING DEADPOOL #1 shambles in to comic shops this February! Blockbuster writer Cullen Bunn (Magneto, Deadpool Kills The Marvel Universe) joins Marvel newcomer Nik Virella take you to a world overrun with undead Deadpools – each with a snarky mouth of its own.

To stop the zombie apocalypse, Deadpool used his own healing factor to save the world. Only any zombie that ate Deadpool…transformed into another Deadpool. Believe us – hordes of Deadpool’s might just be worse than hordes of flesh-hungry monsters."
