Pools of Blood’ Crossover Event Begins

Webs, Bullets, and Blood: Deadpool and Miles Morales Clash in Marvel’s Latest Crossover

Marvel Comics is ready to serve up a fiery new story arc titled "Pools of Blood." Fans of the Merc with a Mouth and the Brooklyn-born web-slinger, brace yourselves. This four-part crossover promises action, intrigue, and just the right amount of chaos. Set to roll out on February 12 with Deadpool #11, the saga parades creative forces like Cody Ziglar, Andrea Di Vito, and Luigi Zagaria.

Meet the Mercs

Miles Morales finds himself in Brooklyn, but peace eludes him. What’s more, Deadpool is after him, and he’s not alone. Wade Wilson has brought a partner—his daughter, Ellie, who continues to don the Deadpool mantle. Together, they’re on a mission, and Miles is in their crosshairs. As tensions rise, Miles realizes he’ll need all his wit and agility to survive this double assault.

But who sent them on this peculiar contract? Whoever it is, they mean trouble, not just for Deadpool, but also for Miles. As Miles contemplates this nightmarish scenario, readers are left to wonder how far Wade will go. Can he fulfill the mission, or will Ellie’s doubts lead to a fractured partnership?

The Setup

Kicking off in Deadpool #11, our tale of calamity sees Deadpool and Ellie taking on their first big job: take out Spider-Man. However, recent tangled events put them in a fix, making their job messier than ever. Despite the stakes, money talks, and both mercs are eager to get paid.

For those keeping track, this crossover also marks a new chapter for Ellie. She’s stepping into the world of mercenary work after taking over her dad’s mantle, which adds complexity to the duo’s dynamic. It’s a dirty, thankless job, yet it’s one they can’t afford to refuse.

Repercussions in Brooklyn

By the time Miles Morales: Spider-Man #30 hits the shelves, Spider-Man is neck-deep in Deadpool mania. Miles finds himself targeted by not one but both Deadpools. As Miles grips his responsibilities in Brooklyn, the plot thickens. Who’s truly pulling strings behind this contract? As layers unfold, it becomes crystal clear that the real villains have bigger plans than mere contracts.

In Deadpool #12, stakes climb as Wade Wilson contemplates his options. His only hope might be a tactical victory over Miles. Yet, doubts plague Ellie. She’s torn between mission loyalty and a budding moral compass. And when Agent Gao enters the scene, the Deadpools’ business hangs in the balance. Without unity, they might find themselves outpaced by unseen forces.

A Deadly Conclusion

"Miles Morales: Spider-Man #31" pits foes against unlikely alliances. Now, Miles and the Deadpools riff off each other’s strengths, if only to confront a mutual adversary. Will this strange partnership hold, or will it crumble under pressure? Moreover, if Miles emerges from this conflict, he still faces a menacing subplot lurking in the shadows.

Cody Ziglar, the creative mind behind this crossover, has crafted a tale intertwining humor, heart, and heroics. Passionate about both Miles and Deadpool, Ziglar injects energy into every panel. As he puts it, crafting Ellie’s first big mission and pairing her with other heroes was a creatively rewarding experience.

"Pools of Blood" isn’t just another crossover. It’s a narrative blend of adrenaline and emotion, rooted in flawed characters making bold choices. Brave readers, who relish tales of action and drama, are sure to be hooked. Preorders have opened at local comic shops, and this high-octane series is already generating buzz. Anticipate a February launch that sets comic aficionados ablaze.

Get ready to dive into "Pools of Blood." It’s a collision of worlds where survival means embracing chaos and forging unexpected alliances. Will the Mercs ultimately succeed, or will Brooklyn’s hero turn the tide? Stay tuned, true believers. The answers await in this riveting saga.
