Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld returns to Marvel for the first time since Major X to celebrate the Merc with a Mouth’s 30th birthday. ComicBook.com can exclusively reveal that Liefeld will write a draw a story in the upcoming Deadpool Nerdy 30 anniversary one-shot. Liefeld will also contribute a cover for the issue, which you see below. “As the Nurse wiped the grime from his lips and placed him in my tender, caring arms, it was love at first sight,” Liefeld says, reflecting on Deadpool’s creation. “The pregnancy had been a difficult one, I was relieved to finally show him to the world at large. Then he puked in my face and cried non stop for 98 hours. I hugged him tighter. Mess after mess, I’m happy to clean up after him, no matter the level of decapitation. We’re family, and now as Deadpool turns 30, I couldn’t be a prouder Dadpool. Marvel is determined to throw a giant bash for our favorite Merc, (sorry, Mando), and I’m thrilled to join in all the outrageous fun. Happy 30th Birthday son!”
