Marvel: Declan Shalvey takes on Deadpool in August starting with Issue 15!


There is a great interview with Declan Shalvey on the Marvel website by Paul Montgomery. Shalvey answers question on how he has been working with this quirky character.

My first taste of Deadpool was when I started reading his new title during Secret Invasion and he soon became one of my favourite characters. He brought the comedy to comics which I could not find in most other titles at that time when I first began collecting.

Since then and most recently he has received his Marvel NOW update and the comedy duo of Gerry Duggan and Brian Posehn have taken on the duty of this fan favourite character.

Declan Shalvey will be joining them for this new arc, "The Good The Bad and The Ugly" which includes the appearance of both Wolverine and Captain America. Declan Shalvey is one of my favourite artists right now and I can not wait to finally pick this up when it is released this month. I collected the first Marvel NOW Deadpool arc featuring the Dead Presidents story but this will be the first time since that ended that I will be picking the title up again. Another highlight is that this comic will be coloured by his long time cover collaborator Jordie Bellaire, and if you have not seen their cover work then you really should check out the covers for the most recent issues of Venom and the unfortunately ended Winter Soldier Series.

For more details on how Shalvey has approached the character among other things check out his interview with Paul Montgomery in the link below, this also contains some great pencil layouts and cover art for the issues;
