Marvel Comics has revealed Rob Liefeld’s final Deadpool saga, which is kicking off this August with Deadpool Team-Up. A five-issue series, Liefeld will write and draw the series, as well as supply covers. Liefeld has a busy second half of 2024 with this series as well as his memoir Robservations coming in early 2025.
Liefeld told Comicbook.com, “Everyone has that one comic with that obscure character that they always wanted more of. l, myself, have several of these and I pulled them from relative obscurity from the deepest corners of the Marvel Universe and placed them next to Deadpool, right at the center of an all new, cataclysmic adventure! This is some wonderfully weird stuff and I’m so excited to share it with the world. I promise you some familiar Marvel faces and take them to brand new places. Deadpool Team-Up is the most fun I’ve had in years! I’d like to thank C.B. Cebulski and Mark Basso for making this a great experience!”
So what’s Deadpool Team-Up about?
When you need some hired hands, Deadpool is your man! But when the Merc with a Mouth needs assistance, he’s got friends (and frenemies) from across the Marvel Universe! Witness Rob Liefeld weaves an epic tale bringing Wade Wilson together with Major X, Crystar, Ghost-Spider, Wolverine, and the Incredible Hulk for the first time, as the return of a LOST MARVEL COMICS CHARACTER necessitates the ultimate team-up mission!
The first issue drops into comic shops on August 28th. Check out the first revealed covers below.
New York, NY— May 16, 2024 — Just in time for Deadpool’s return to the big screen, creator Rob Liefeld returns with his final Deadpool saga that is sure to take its place in Deadpool history!
Announced earlier today at ComicBook.com, Rob Liefeld is finishing his work on Deadpool with his final blockbuster story in DEADPOOL TEAM-UP, a five-issue series launching in August.

In addition to featuring Deadpool’s supporting cast–from his fan-favorite allies to deadly enemies and everyone in between–DEADPOOL TEAM-UP also sees Wade assemble a crew that’s wild even by his standards!
