Interview with Weapon X: First Class Writer About Deadpool

Marvel.com has just posted an interview with Marc Sumerak, who is writing the Weapon X: First Class series. The series focuses on Wolverine's Weapon X experience, but each issue also contains a backup story featuring other Weapon X characters. As previously reported, in Weapon X: First Class #2 the backup story is about Deadpool's experience in the Weapon X program. There isn't much additional detail about the story, but Sumerak does talk about the research he did for the story:
"I re-read a ton of Deadpool issues as prep for this story," he shares. "A lot of info about Wade's time with Weapon X comes from [DEADPOOL ANNUAL 1998], so that one was essential. In terms of the story's overall tone, I went back to some classics. I'm a big fan of the Joe Kelly and Ed McGuinness run that kicked off Deadpool's first ongoing series. Those issues made me laugh 'til I hurt."

Weapon X: First Class #2 comes out December 3. [SOURCE]
