The iconic comic book creator recently debuted a New Mutants #98-inspired poster for Deadpool 2, featuring Ryan Reynold's Merc with a Mouth posed alongside DP2 stars Domino, Cable, and Colossus (Stefan Kapicic).

Tickets for the snarky superhero blockbuster went on sale Thursday as announced by the final DP2 trailer, giving fresh looks at series newcomers Terry Crews, Bill Skarsgard, Shiori Kutsuna, Lewis Tan, Julian Dennison and Rob Delaney.

The sequel, this time steered by Atomic Blonde's David Leitch, is ranked second on Fandango's most anticipated summer movies poll as voted on my moviegoers.

DP2 comes in behind Marvel Studios' Avengers: Infinity War, and ahead of Solo: A Star Wars Story, Incredibles 2 and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.

Deadpool 2, starring Ryan Reynolds, Josh Brolin, Zazie Beetz, Morena Baccarin, and T.J. Miller, opens May 18.
