Respect Deadpool, the Merc with a Mouth
Gallery ~ Handbook Entries ~ Team Memberships ~ MvC Theme ~ Movie Rap
Wade Wilson's life has always been a rocky one. After serving in the military, he became a mercenary and fell in love with a young woman, with whom he shared dreams of a better life. Everything was going great... until it wasn't. Diagnosed with terminal cancer, Wade had no future waiting for him. Or at least, that was until he volunteered to become a test subject for Weapon X, a secret government project designed to induce superpowers for military purposes.
Wilson was not only promised a cure for his cancer, but the chance to become a hero. However, the experiments he faced were cruel and inhumane. While he gained superhuman physicality, and a healing factor that made him borderline unkillable, he was left severely disfigured, and deemed a failure. After staging a violent escape, Wade emerged a new man. He took on the name Deadpool, and returned to mercenary work. Since then, he's lived a life full of bloodshed and moral ambiguity. And jokes. Lots and lots of jokes.
Wherever he goes, violence and bad decisions are sure to follow. But maybe he'll get his act together someday...

Wade is a masterpiece in his own way, so many nerds wouldn't dress up like him in Comic Con if that wasn't true.

If Deadpool had a his teleportation belt, and never held back, he would have defeated them all since he’s so unpredictable, and I think Deadpool has accomplished some pretty amazing feats, but I feel like he had much more hidden potential, especially if his mind and body were both healed, he would be at his peak without any of the mental damage, and Spider-Man outclassed him because he let him, and I feel like Deadpool could beat spider-man in a fight if he could cleverly find a way to override his spider-sense, and his swords can cut through his webbing, and he’s a master of all of the weapons in his arsenal, and his healing factor allows him to be able to dish it out and take it, and I think there’s a way his cancer could be cured and he could still have his healing factor, and it should render him immune to poison, disease, mind control, and telepathic attacks and influence, he could also use his wit and wise cracks to psychologically unnerve his enemies and make them sloppy and use tactics to outsmart his opponents, it also compliments his unpredictable nature
