Deadpool & X-Force Omnibus Ken Lashley/Greg Capullo Cover [New Printing] (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781302961176)

New York Times best-selling author Mark Waid has worked for every major company in the comics industry in a nearly three-decade-long career, writing thousands of issues, including runs of Amazing Spider-Man, X-Men, Ka-Zar and Fantastic Four. His other works of note include his collaboration with painter Alex Ross on Kingdom Come, which earned an Eisner Award for Best Limited Series. Waid enjoyed his greatest outpouring of critical acclaim with the Eisner Award-winning Daredevil -- which included a revered collaboration with frequent artistic partner Chris Samnee. He later took on such diverse pop-cultural icons as Princess Leia and Archie, and ushered in a new era of greatness for Earth's Mightiest Heroes in All-New, All-Different Avengers. His Marvel work continued with Avengers, Black Widow, Captain America, Champions and Doctor Strange.

Superstar penciler Greg Capullo wowed readers with his work on X-Force before a lengthy association with Todd McFarlane's Spawn for Image Comics and a critically acclaimed run with writer Scott Snyder on DC Comics' Batman.

After making his debut on Marvel's X-Force, artist Mat Broome moved to Image. He penciled a lengthy run on Stormwatch, the Defcon 4 miniseries and several issues of WildC.A.Ts, including the finale of writer Alan Moore's memorable run. After contributing to Acclaim's Shadowman revival, Broome penciled short arcs on Gambit and Batman, and then co-wrote and illustrated Image's Skinners and Saffire -- the latter through his own studio imprint, Digital Broome. Broome penciled Chaos' Mummy: Valley of the Gods and the Dabel Brothers' Wood Boy one-shots, followed by Dark Horse's End League and Marvel's Adam: Legend of the Blue Marvel miniseries.

Prolific creator Tony Daniel penciled a memorable X-Force run. At Image, he illustrated Alan Moore's Spawn: Blood Feud miniseries and the entire run of The Tenth. Daniel wrote and drew Image's F5 and Dark Horse's Silke miniseries, establishing himself as a double threat. After a short stint at Top Cow penciling Tomb Raider, and writing and drawing HumanKind, Daniel moved to DC. He illustrated Geoff Johns' Teen Titans and Bart Allen's death in Flash, and teamed with Grant Morrison on Batman. Daniel wrote and drew the Batman: Battle for the Cowl miniseries, and then became the regular Batman writer and artist. He went on to write Savage Hawkman, and write and draw Detective Comics, for DC's New 52.
