The 90′s are when I started to get out of comics, but there’s still some nostalgia to be mined there and Marvel Comics is doing just that with Deadpool Vs. X-Force, a new limited series that’s debuting on July 2nd, 2014. The series comes fr from writer Duane Swierczynski and artist Pepe Larraz as it takes us back to the long-forgotten days of the 1990′s.
“Deadpool’s gone back to key points in American military history: the Battle of Germantown during the Revolutionary War; Gettysburg during the Civil War, and then… well, I can’t say anything else, because you know how one little musket ball has a funny of changing the course of human events,” says series writer Duane Swierczynski.

Plot concept: That’s right – we’re talking about Cable & Deadpool! In this all-new tale, experience the duo’s very first meeting, well before their first comic book appearance together in New Mutants #98, as Cable and his soon to be X-Force race through the timestream to stop a reckless mercenary (that’s Deadpool!) before he destroys American history for good!
