After that then I highly recommend Deadpool: MAX, an alternate dimension take on Deadpool that is even more R-rated than usual. He gets high on PCP at one point, if that helps, but it's one of the few series that focuses on him as being mentally disturbed, as opposed to simply being "hilariously" zany. Deadpool is brilliant when he's crazy, but boring when he's just whacky.

Deadpool's previous series, written by Brian Posehn and Gerry Duggan, was also brilliant for about the first third or so of the series, until it peaked and just become pretty good (though the first six issues are kinda ****).

Volume 1 is what you want, and only then until #33, but Sins of the Past and The Circle Chase at least give the character his first taste of being something other than a lame Rob Liefeld vehicle (if that means anything to you).
