MARVEL X UNCLE JACK Our very first collaboration with Marvel kicks off with the anti-hero himself: Deadpool. Uncle Jack and Deadpool, a match made in heaven, or hell, we aren’t really sure. Anyway, what we do know is that Uncle Jack entering the Marvel universe is seriously exciting. Uncle Jack is known for its high-profile collaborations and partnerships, but this is something different.    Who better to kick start this negasonic teenage warhead level collaboration than Uncle Jack’s favourite anti-hero, Deadpool.
