Ahem. I'm a bit late, but hey, better late than never, yes? Anyway, this here is your friendly neighborhood Spider-man mercenary, Deadpool, aka Wade Wilson, aka Chester Cheeto, aka Baron Hans von Wienerschnitzelkaufmannmuellerschmidt, aka Paula Abdul (long story), aka Eric Estrada (even longer story), aka Thom Cruz (boy, that was fun), and about fifty others. So say hi, kids, and don't be scared off by his OMG SO SERIOUS icon there. He was in a mood, see, and was drinking himself into oblivion (or trying to, anyway) upon hearing the news of his beloved Bea Arthur, and these things happen.
He's really a big ol' teddy bear. Packing heat. But don't worry, he's totally not after you. Unless someone pays him enough. Or offers him a six-pack and an issue of Field & Stream. But barring that, you're completely safe. So relax, pull up a chair, and introduce yourself to everyone's favorite merc with a mouth.
A few notes about this Wade:
I've tried to make him fit into the abomination that was "Deadpool" in XMO: Wolverine, as well as tying in his comic canon history, so here's the Cliff Notes,
After Wolverine left Weapon X, Wade took that as his chance to go off on his own merry way as well, traveling around the world, killing anyone he was hired to kill. As you do. He even had a nifty girlfriend named Vanessa, and seemed, well, not domestic, but at least willing to consider settling down. Then he was diagnosed with a terminal form of cancer, which he fought as long as he could before finally deciding he'd had enough. He left Vanessa so that she wouldn't have to deal with it, and upon being contacted by Stryker, agreed to return to the Weapon X program for experimental treatment. They "cured" him, alright, but in the process used him for a variety of horrific experiments and pretty much drove him insane. All of this culminated in his being selected to be transformed into Weapon XI, which, um, didn't go so well for him once Wolverine decapitated him and threw him into a nuclear reactor, and like, thanks, Jimmy, way to be a great pal! Um. Anyway. So yeah, he discovered quite accidentally that the incredibly powerful healing factor Weapon X had given him made him pretty much immortal, so far as he can tell -- because if getting your head cut off doesn't kill you, that means not even Highlanders can take you out. If they can't kill you, you're God. Or Carson Daly. Whatever. Head newly reattached and his body rejecting all of the modifications Weapon X made (sans the healing factor itself, naturally), he once again went about his way, though now with a full costume to hide his hideously scarred and disfigured body. If you want him, you know how to find him. Just don't expect to buy him off with peanuts.*
*Unless they're the super salty kind. Those things are awesome.
Also, I've finally updated my wanted scenes post, now with added Katie and Wade goodness. Hurray!
