A former S.H.I.E.L.D.-employed necromancer named Michael put his natural talents with magic to use and accidentally raised every single deceased President of the United States from their graves in the “Dead Presidents” arc of Deadpool. He eventually finds out that the sinister Mr. Butler, who is the former employee of the Weapon Plus program, never stopped keeping tabs on him, and only let him go “free range,” observing him and abducting him regularly to harvest tissue.

Harley Quinn came out of the massively popular Batman: The Animated Series and broke out in no small part thanks to a tremendous voice actor performance from Arleen Sorkin. In the modern day, Iron Fist has started teaching martial arts classes for children in his spare time, and against all good sense, Deadpool decides to drag Iron Fist’s students into a final fight against The White Man. Once arisen, Michael finds himself in over his head, and S.H.I.E.L.D. finds itself with a dozen of deceased presidents problem. It’s made worse due to negative publicity after Captain America is forced to decapitate the reanimated Harry Truman. Different versions of Captain America exist in every dimension, but are at least recognizable as variations on a common theme, but for different events that have shaped them in different ways.

Deadpool was the first Secret Battle Pass Outfit to be a Collaboration, and also the first Collaboration Outfit to be in the Battle Pass in general. Deadpool crashes in a crime scene-- specifically a house that belonged to recently-deceased occupants with fresh fluids still on the walls.

Readers who have seen Deadpool 2 will know that X-Force is the name of the ill-fated special-ops strike team that Deadpool assembles in the movie, but it has a much longer life (literally and figuratively) in the comics. With his special forces experience, plus the fact that his healing factor makes him completely undestroyable, the universe would be in serious trouble if he ever actually got his act totally together, or applied his considerable talent for mayhem to darker pursuits. The super-villain Madcap is like an even darker version of Deadpool, possessing a similar healing factor and lust for chaos and mayhem. However, where Deadpool has a heart of gold somewhere deep beneath his scarred exterior, Madcap is evil and dangerous all the way down. Deadpool’s best stories come when he empathizes with a character who’s not so different, a character who’s been through trauma or heartbreak that Wade Wilson can relate to. He then attempts to connect with or help said character.

They end up defeating a villain known as The White Man, who uses a magical cane to turn people into stone (because the 1970s). Deadpool was created in 1991 by Fabian Nicieza and Rob Liefeld, also known as He Of Many Pouches And Tiny Feet. However, given Deadpool’s later status as meta commentator on comic books in general, it should be no surprise that the bounds of space and time have no meaning to him or his stories. In the miniseries Deadpool Kills The Marvel Universe, an attempt to brainwash Deadpool by the super-villain Psycho Man goes horribly wrong. Gone are the fun voices that Deadpool usually hears in his head; a cold, ruthless voice replaces them, urging him to hurt others.

What makes it so heartbreaking is not only the fact that a fan-favorite character dies, but also the fact that Deadpool is so broken as a person that when a hero he admires shows him some respect and attention, he’s blinded to any possibility that the deed he’s been tasked with could have ulterior motives. However, comic Deadpool, like his movies counterpart, balks at harming a child before he’s actually done anything evil. Desperate times call for desperate measures, but even then the depths to which Deadpool will sink shatter the boundaries of good taste.

This time, Skull has grafted the brain of the dead Charles Xavier, aka Professor X, to his own brain and used his newly-gained psychic powers to enslave Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. Deadpool is immune to the Skull’s brainwashing due to his unstable and completely fractured personality, and busts into Avengers Mansion to topple the Teutonic terror.
