We know, kids. When September rolls around it's time to say goodbye to sleeping in, endless laying about and totally sweet summer jobs. Summer may be gone and going back at school can be murder, but you can still start the year off on the right foot. Who better to tell you what's up than Deadpool and Bob, Agent of Hydra! They sat down with Marvel.com to give you the do's and absolutely do nots about the going back to school. Listen up, because they will help you be a little less Peter Parker and a little more Flash Thompson. Oh, and check out the awesome preview of Cable & Deadpool #45, on sale September 26.

MARVEL.COM: OkAY, what should I fill my backpack with so that I know I'll be prepared for class?

BOB: #2 pencil. Calculator. Protractor. Abacus. Notebook. 8 1/2" x 11" lined looseleaf paper. Bic Pen (with the blue caps). Erasers.

DEADPOOL: Paste. In case I get hungry.

MARVEL.COM: I gotta look fly around campus, right? What should I wear so that I make a good impression?

BOB: Something that doesn't stand out too much. Corduroys maybe. In brown. Polo shirt, plain grey. Buster brown shoes.

DEADPOOL: A fig leaf. Just a fig leaf. Keeps all the girls and the hot teachers distracted all day long wondering if a breeze might kick up and blow that leaf away.

MARVEL.COM: Um…cool. Anyway, taking the bus is for squares! How should I get to school?

BOB: If Mom can't give you a ride, probably walk. Or a bicycle. But then I would worry about it being stolen. Really, the bus is the best way, so try not to miss it.

DEADPOOL: Hotwire a car. Preferably a cop car parked at the local Dunkin' Donuts.

MARVEL.COM: Once I get to school, what if a teacher keeps giving me the stink eye and makes me look like a jerk in front of the whole class? How do I come out looking cool and not get in trouble at the same time?

BOB: Patience. They have a difficult job and if you play to their expectations of you as a bad student, then you're justifying their jerkiness. Kill them with kindness.

DEADPOOL: Kill them with a blunt instrument. A well-thrown Abacus can do wonders.

MARVEL.COM: Well…okayyyy…but what if instead of an old battleaxe teacher, it's a meathead, no neck jock that's pushing us around?

BOB: Patience. Bullies are often just desperate for attention or friendship. Understand they might have had a difficult upbringing and if you fight back, then you're justifying their jerkiness. Kill them with kindness.

DEADPOOL: Kill them with a blunt instrument. A well-thrown Abacus can do wonders.

MARVEL.COM: Duly noted! Now, let's say in the same class there is the most beautiful, foxy and popular girl in school sitting right in front of us. How do we get her to notice us?

BOB: Oh, I could never...

DEADPOOL: Show her what's hiding under that fig leaf, baby. That ain't no #2 pencil poking you from behind...

MARVEL.COM: So, we have our dope gear on, we're prepared for class and know how to deal with bullies, teachers and girls. Now what if terrorists parachute through the gymnasium ceiling and try to take the place over?!

BOB: Hydra training #101: HIDE.

DEADPOOL: Help them. I'll handle tying up the cheerleaders.
We hope this makes you feel a little bit better about getting back into the school groove. Hey, only 179 more school days (give or take) and it's summer again, so keep yer head up!

While you wait, check out CABLE AND DEADPOOL #45 by Fabian Niceiza and Riley Brown, on sale September 26.
