Marvel Comics has announced Deadpool: Bad Blood is getting the serialized treatment this April. The graphic novel was written by Rob Liefeld, Chris Sims, Chad Bowers, and drawn by Liefeld. Still available in the graphic novel format, the serialization also comes complete with brand-new cover artwork. Expect to find Deadpool: Bad Blood #1 in comic shops on April 6th and issue #2 on April 20th.
“I don’t know which call was better, the one in 2017 where Marvel told me that DEADPOOL: BAD BLOOD was the #1 graphic novel for the month or the call last month when Marvel told me they wanted to break the 100 pages up into a miniseries for audiences that may have missed the first time around!” Liefeld said.
Liefeld added, “Deadpool! Cable! X-Force! Kane and the debut of Thumper! This is my favorite work, a personal work, and I’m so thrilled we are releasing it in an all new format! Get your hands on it this April!!!”

Wade has as much of a clue as you do! So he decides to call in some help from an old friend: Domino! Can he and Domino get to the bottom of things before Deadpool meets his maker again?
