The definitive, chronological, and up-to-date guide and trade reading order on collecting Deadpool comic books via omnibuses, hardcovers, and trade paperback graphic novels. A part of Crushing Krisis’s Collecting X-Men: A Definitive Guide. Last updated November 2018 with titles scheduled for release through July 2019.

Looking for Cable? You’re not crazy – he used to live on this page, too! See The Definitive Cable Collecting Guide and Reading Order.

Deadpool is now a multi-media star – perhaps one of Marvel’s most-visible characters – but he had humble beginnings.

He was introduced in 1991 in one of the final issues of New Mutants, created by Rob Liefeld and Fabian Nicieza as mercenary who was an oddball cross between Spider-Man and DC Comics’ Deathstroke.

Deadpool was just one of a slew of newly-introduced extreme characters that leaned into the bloodlust of early 90s fans. Yet, he stood out in the crowd in his remarkably sparse early appearances. That was largely because Nicieza gifted him with a unique, sardonic, self-deprecating voice, which other writers gladly picked up.

After six years of guest appearances, Deadpool landing his own ongoing in 1997 penned by newcomer Joe Kelly only tiny handful of issues into his career. The series stuck – it was one of the few to survive Marvel’s early 2000’s cull, and Deadpool would never again go without at least one ongoing series to his name.

This guide covers every single issue of Deadpool – both his own series and his many guest appearances. First, I’ll explain how you can have nearly a complete Deadpool collection in the most-efficient fashion and with the fewest books possible in two different formats.

Or, chronologically follow Deadpool’s series and appearances issue-by-issue, covering how to collect each one.

Deadpool Classic & Complete Collections

Marvel releases a line of trade paperbacks under the “Classic” banner that chronologically collect 8-12 issues of a specific title in sequence. The series usually collects comics from the 70s through the 90s, but with Deadpool, Marvel went a step farther and kept the series running through nearly the present day!

This is the easiest way to get your Deadpool bookshelf in order, though there are other ways to collect many of these issues. Things get tricky at 2004, as Classic confusingly stops collecting the main Deadpool series and starts to act as a catch-all for his various mini-series and guest appearances. Instead, Deadpool’s main series are collected in “Complete Collection” trade paperback series – which I’ve added in sequence with the Classic collections, below.

Classic Vol. 1 – New Mutants #98, Deadpool: The Circle Chase #1-4, Deadpool (1994) #1-4, Deadpool (1997) #1.

Classic Vol. 2 – Deadpool (1997) #2-8, -1 ,and Daredevil/Deadpool Annual 1997.

Classic Vol. 3 – Deadpool (1997) #9-17 and Amazing Spider-Man #47

Classic Vol. 4 – Deadpool (1997) #18-25, 0, and Deadpool & Death Annual 1998

Classic Vol. 5 – Deadpool (1997) #26-33, Baby’s First Deadpool Book, and Deadpool Team-Up #1

Classic Vol. 6 – Deadpool (1997) #34-45 and Black Panther #23

Classic Vol. 7 – Deadpool (1997) #46-56 and material from X-Men Unlimited #28.

Classic Vol. 8 – Deadpool (1997) #57-64

Classic Companion – Collects notable guest appearances through this point – Nomad (1992) #4; Secret Defenders #15-17; Wolverine (1988) #88 & #154-155; X-Force (1991) #47 & 56; Heroes for Hire (1997) #10-11; and material from Avengers (1963) #366; Silver Sable and The Wild Pack #23 & 30; Wolverine Annuals ’95 & ’99; Contest of Champions II #2; Marvel Comics Presents (2007) #10; and Breaking Into Comics the Marvel Way #2.

Classic Vol. 9 – Deadpool (1997) #65-69 and Agent X #1-6.

Classic Vol. 10 – Agent X (2002) #7-15 & Fight Man #1

The Deadpool Classic series skipped over collecting Deadpool’s next sequential series, 2004’s Cable and Deadpool. It was re-collected into a trio of Ultimate Collections, which was a previous name for Complete Collections.

Deadpool & Cable Ultimate Collection Book 1 (ISBN 0785143130)

Collects Cable & Deadpool #1-18

Deadpool Classic also does not collect Deadpool’s next sequential series, 2008’s Deadpool by Daniel Way. It was re-collected into four Complete Collections.

By Daniel Way: Complete Collection, Vol. 1 (ISBN 0785185321)

Collects Deadpool (2008) #1-12, plus Thunderbolts #130-131, Wolverine Origins #21-25, and Deadpool Saga (a comic recapping Deadpool’s story, to date).

Now we’re back to the Classic series! Since the 2004 and 2008 Deadpool books were all collected into easy-to-digest books, the Classic line instead focuses on shorter ongoing series, mini-series, and out-of-continuity Deadpool tales.

Deadpool Omnibuses

In something out of every bookshelf collector’s wildest dreams, Marvel has methodically collected every single Deadpool appearance into a consistent set of omnibuses that allow you to travel from his 1990 debut nearly through present day without a single gap.

Before we get to his omnibus line, there’s the one extra-large Adamantium Collection:

Deadpool: The Adamantium Collection

Adamantium collections are super-massive coffee-table books – even taller than omnibuses! They include a smattering of all eras of their subject, so are better as a novelty piece or for dabbling fans rather than those collecting entire runs. This one includes New Mutants (1983) #98; Deadpool: The Circle Chase #1-4; Deadpool (1997) #6-8, 44, & 65-69; Daredevil/Deadpool Annual ’97; Black Panther (1998) #23; Cable & Deadpool #20-23; Deadpool (2008) #16-18; Deadpool Kills The Marvel Universe #1-4; Deadpool (2012) #15-19; and Deadpool Secret Comic Variants.

If you want the complete Deadpool collection from 1990 to 2015, you’ll be picking up these 12 omnibuses.

Beginnings Omnibus Oversize Hardcover

This omnibus collects all of Deadpool’s earliest chronological guest appearances, including New Mutants #98; X-Force #2, 11, 15, 47, 56; Nomad #4; Deadpool: The Circle Chase #1-4; Secret Defenders #15-17; Deadpool #1-4; Wolverine #88, 154-155 and material from Annuals 95 and 99; Heroes For Hire #10-11; Deadpool Team-Up #1; material from Avengers #366; Silver Sable & The Wild Pack #23; and various Deadpool cameo pages

I have omitted the Deadpool & X-Force Omnibus from this running order because it is not part of having a complete Deadpool bookshelf – his name is included purely for marketing purposes and it duplicates content from these other books.

Cable was the headliner of this series when it debuted in 2004 – again, from the pen of Fabian Nicieza, who writes the entire series (penciled mostly by Patrick Zircher).

However, in reprints Deadpool is pulling top billing – after almost two decades in the Marvel Universe, he’s one of their hottest (and most humorous) properties. Thanks to that, Marvel collected this entire series into and omnibus and three trade paperback ultimate collection editions.
