SHANG-CHI: MASTER OF KUNG FU v2 #1 (November 2009)
By Jonathan Hickman & Kody Chamberlin

APPEARANCES:
Shang-Chi, Deadpool, Black Santas of the Damnation Army, Hitler Twins from Pittsburg, Cross-Dressing Cat-Themed Professional Wrestlers from the Women’s Extreme Wrestling League (Miss Scratchy, Spot, Doctor Hemorrhoid), Needy Women of Reno (Aria, Arianna, Alanna, Aria), Thinking Men of Palo Alto (Captain Environment, Corporation Man, Interface, Cappuccino), the Luchadores, a pregnant waitress with a demon in her belly

SYNOPSIS:
Deadpool has been hired to defeat Shang-Chi in the Annual Race to Benefit Various and Sundry Evil Organizations and also the Homeless; Now with Beer and Hot Dogs (a cross-country motorcycle race). Almost everyone dies during the race (except the Luchadores, who just return to Mexico). At the end, Deadpool and Shang-Chi are tied, but they decide to return to a diner and eat more hot dogs where Deadpool reveals he rigged the trophy to explode in case Shang-Chi won; he then apologizes because they're pals now.

NOTE:
The hot dogs are delicious because they have people meat in them. But it’s a secret!
