Spider-Man/Deadpool is a 50 issuecomic book series published byMarvel Comics beginning in 2016. The title characters,Spider-Man andDeadpool, shared the focus of the book.^[1] The comic was originally launched byJoe Kelly andEd McGuinness, but many authors and artists worked on the series during its run.Spider-Man/Deadpool is an action-comedy that explores the dynamic between the two characters and their personality differences. It is divided into three storylinesIsn't it Bromantic?,Side Pieces,Itsy Bitsy,Serious Business,Arms Race,WLMD,My Two Dads,Road Trip, andEventpool.

The comic focuses on Deadpool and Spider-Man as they team up to face various threats. While Deadpool is immensely pleased as he finally gets to hang out with his favorite wall-crawler, Spider-Man is initially all too disgusted with Deadpool, having previously quit the Avengers Unity Squad because Deadpool became a member. As they team up and hang out together, Spidey learns about the man behind the wisecracking mercenary, while Deadpool starts holding himself to a higher moral standard in order to get closer to Spidey. It's not all bromance and sunshine, however, as Deadpool has been hired to kill Peter Parker.

Things only get more complicated from there, as several foes from both beyond the grave and the very living realm serve to give these two a hard time, testing the mettle their (often contrasting) morals are made of.

Ultimately, this series is an exploration of the characters. "Drilling down on their friendship was our goal from the first issue. When we started, they were even more at odds due to the events ofSecret Empire. That allowed us to have them wind up in situations where they were forced to find common ground," said Robbie Thomson on the subject of the character's relationship. "I think with Wade, he’s an anti-hero, but there’s a true blue hero somewhere deep down inside, under all the toilet humor and murder and lack of boundaries. And he views Spider-Man as the gold standard of being a good guy. He admires him. And who can blame him? For Spider-Man, one thing that I love about him is that he has the ability to see the potential good in anyone. Even when it costs him. So, he knows Wade is foolish and goes too far, but he also has seen Wade be heroic, as well as save Spider-Man from time to time. And yet, Wade can always snatch defeat from the claws of victory on his path to redemption."^[2]
