Deadpool Complete Reading Guide
After weeks of research and editing, I can finally welcome you to the Bible of Deadpool!
This spreadsheet includes comprehensive lists of all of Deadpool's comic appearances, including the various collected editions and omnibuses you can collect them in.
Can be a little overwhelming if you're a little newer to the comics, so that's why there's also a suggested reading page.
This will be regularly updated as new content is announced (and permanently linked on the menu and sidebar of the sub). If you notice any mistakes or omissions (particularly with non-616 appearances), please share in the comments of this post. The hope and dream is to get this completely accurate.

Surprised Spider-Man/Deadpool wasn't in the recommended section. Haven't read it but from what I know it was a popular run

"All 616 appearances" alone is a great resource to have available at a quick link haha. Great job, thanks for sharing!

Wow! Can't thank you enough for creating this.
I've been on a mission for years to collect every appearance of Deadpool. Thought I was only missing five comics (none of which are expensive, they are just impossible to find in the UK and I refuse to pay $20 postage for a $5 comic from the US), but right near the start of your list I can already see two you listed that I wasn't aware of: Nomad #4 (1992) & X-men Premium Edition (1993).
I'll be sure to check through the whole thing when I get home from Japan in a couple of months. It's such a great resource.
Now if someone can just do the same for every appearance of a symbiote ever, I'll be set!

Thanks ! I'm new to comics (I read some when I was a kid, but that's all) and I wanted to start with Deadpool since he's my favorite Marvel character.
Just a quick question, I need to read all 616 appearances in that order, right ? But for example, there are things like X-Force (1991) #2 and #4. I will understand the story even if I don't read all the issues where Deadpool doesn't appear ?

I was actually thinking about going back and reading all the Deadpool stuff the other day!
Probably a dumb question but I was thinking of subbing to Marvel Unlimited. Will most (if not all) of these be on there?

This is amazing, thank you. This is helping me create my own cross-reference for volumes (how I prefer to buy) and issues (which I buy if I can get a complete set, or if it's an issue I really loved the story or cover of from a collected edition). Thank you so much for all the work that went into this.

thank you. this helps a lot!
I have began to create one on my own but the numbering of marvel and panini diverges so I stopped.

Still don’t understand the dislike of Daniel Ways run of Deadpool. For me that’s the best Ongoing run of Deadpool

Awesome, thanks dude! I haven't read any Deadpool continuity for years now, so it's going to be helpful
