This publication is also known as: Deadpool (vol. 1) #1. Some reference sources list this as Deadpool (vol. 1) #1, and some sources list it as Deadpool: The Circle Chase #1. The "Deadpool" logo is enormous, taking up almost all the space on the cover. The words "Deadpool: The Circle Chase" appear on the cover in rather small print. This title does not appear in the indicia of issue #1, but it was added for the remaining 3 issues of this mini-series. Regardless of whether one considers this "Deadpool volume 1" or not, this series is definitely the first series to feature Deadpool as a title character.
