- Chapter One: 1985 The Man with the M.O.D.O.K. Butt · Venompool · 6 pages
Welcome to Earth 615.9--the coolest Marvel Universe. Deadpool is hired by Galactus to kill the Beyonder for playing a practical joke and attaching M.O.D.O.K.'s head to the world eater's butt. DP finds the Beyonder up to his leisure suit in booze and broads and prepares to take his foe down. Unfortunately, he falls under the hypnotic spell of the Beyonder's cosmic jheri curls and ends up joining the fun. When Spider-Man attacks the partying pair, the black symbiotic suit he is wearing takes DP's new hairdo as its host, making 'Pool ultra-powerful (and leaving poor Petey completely naked).
- Chapter Two: 1993 Straight Outta Secret Wars XII · Venompool · 6 pages
Venompool is deserted by the Beyonder who grows tired of living their homeless-chic lifestyle. VP decides it is time for him to return to relevance as well and sells his other drinking buddy, Tony Stark, to AIM to fund his venture. After ridding himself of the evil jheri curl that the Beyonder saddled him with, he tries to become a famous hero but finds the work hard and unrewarding. Police officer Fury tells him there is only one way to gain true status in the heroic world: join the Secret Wars.
- Chapter Three · Venompool · 6 pages
Venompool, the Beyonder and Carnage Curl appear on the Hairy Springer show to discuss their convoluted love triangle. When Hairy announces that Carnage Curl is pregnant, things heat up as speculation begins as to who her baby daddy is. It's Galactus.
- Chapter Four · Venompool · 6 pages
Venompool has become the most popular hero in the world but his ego won't let him rest as there are still other heroes who garner praise and adoration. So VP kills all of them. Now the most powerful being in the world and ruler of all he surveys, Venompool still finds himself unsatisfied and, true to his knee-jerk nature, decides to simply wipe Marvel universe 615.9 out of existence.
