Regular Edition - Says "Deadpool: Secret Invasion" on spine and is volumed

Volume 1 - 2nd and later printings. "Secret Invasion!" Collects Deadpool (2008-2012 2nd Series) #1-5.

Written by DANIEL WAY. Art by PACO MEDINA and CARLO BARBERI. Cover by CLAYTON CRAIN.

Gifted with a healing factor that makes him nearly unkillable, Wade Wilson is the craziest mercenary to ever karate kick his way through the Marvel Universe. A wise-cracking, gun-toting, one-man army, he manages to save a baseball stadium full of innocent civilians from a Skrull attack all by himself. And then, to everyone's surprise, he surrenders to the Skrulls. Instantly recognizing Deadpool's assets, the Skrulls welcome him into their fold. They isolate his healing factor and replicate it in the newest generation of Super-Skrulls, a brigade Deadpool himself will lead against the Earth defense forces. Or so the Skrulls think. Sure, he's a mercenary - and sure, if you pay, he plays - but what the Skrulls don't realize is that someone else is footing the bill...

When publisher Jim Warren created Creepy magazine in 1962, he soon realized he'd hit pay dirt on a gruesome gold mine of great comics storytelling. Under the leadership of editor/writer Archie Goodwin, Warren's hit line of horror-comics magazines grew another lurid limb with the introduction of Eerie in 1964, and soon there were two great horror magazines on the rack instead of one. Following in the fetid footsteps of our sinfully successful archive library of Creepy, Dark Horse is also proudly publishing its Eerie equivalent-keeping chilling stories and incredible artwork in the family!

Includes astonishing artwork and classic stories from such comics legends as Gene Colan, Steve Ditko, Gray Morrow, Neal Adams, and Frank Frazetta! o Reprints classic Eerie stories originally published from 1966 to 1967.

Written by Bill Willingham. Art by Lan Medina, Mark Buckingham, Steve Leialoha and Craig T. Hamilton. Cover by James Jean.

For the first time ever, Bill Willingham's acclaimed, Eisner Award-winning series FABLES is presented in a deluxe hardcover edition! When a savage creature known only as the Adversary conquered the fabled lands of legends and fairy tales, all of the infamous inhabitants of folklore were forced into exile. Disguised among the normal citizens of modern-day New York, these magical characters have created their own peaceful and secret society within an exclusive luxury apartment building called Fabletown. When Snow White's party-girl sister, Rose Red, is apparently murdered, it's up to Fabletown's sheriff, the reformed and pardoned Big Bad Wolf, to find the killer. Meanwhile, trouble of a different sort brews at the Fables' upstate farm where non-human inhabitants are preaching revolution - and threatening Fabletown's carefully nurtured secrecy.

The 12th volume in the best-selling, award-winning FABLES series collects more epic issues from the acclaimed monthly series.

Also in this volume, you'll find the 4-part story featuring Freddy and Mouse, two local rogues who just want to get along and perhaps turn a bit of profit in the post-war, topsy-turvy world. Meanwhile, in Fabletown, a new political group forms called the Society of Seconds, and what they want doesn't seem very reasonable at all.
