Starting in 1997, Deadpool was given his own ongoing title, initially written by Joe Kelly with then-newcomer Ed McGuinness as an artist. This series firmly established his supporting cast, including his prisoner/den-mother Blind Al and his "best friend" Weasel.
The series was renumbered at 1 with Deadpool issue 57 and rebranded "Deadpool: Agent of Weapon X". Again it was renumbered and rebranded as "Deadpool: Funeral for a Freak" at Deadpool issue 61. However in both cases a dual numbering system were implemented and the series returned to simply "Deadpool" and the original number at issue 65. The series ended with issue 69 and was then continued/ replaced by the Agent X series.
