The ultimate collection of Deadpool facts, quotes and statistics is all you comic readers out there who love to laugh and want to be just as witty as Wade Wilson, AKA Deadpool himself.
There are so many quotable moments in comics and films that it was hard for us to choose which ones we wanted to include in this list.
But I'm sure you will like what we have added.
Who is Deadpool?
Deadpool is a fictional character by Marvel Comics.
His name in the comics is Wade Wilson, and his popularity as a character has skyrocketed since Ryan Reynolds brought his character to life on the big screen in 2 movies. However, those same films nearly didn't happen because Ryan had already starred in the X-Men Origins film as Deadpool, and Wolverine killed off that character.
The persistence of Ryan Reynolds and his love for the character finally managed to get the film made, and it was a smash hit.
And he pokes fun at the previous film outing in bother Deadpool 1 and 2.
What Are Deadpool's Powers?
The Merc with the Mouth is one of Marvel's most popular and conflicted characters. However, his powers are relatively simple.
He is gifted with the ability to heal, making him virtually immortal.
In addition, he is an expert marksman, trained in firearms, swords and martial arts.
How Did Deadpool Gain his Powers?
In the films, you will see that Wade gets cancer, and someone offers him a cure.
He goes into the weapon X programme and is experimented on to activate the mutant gene in his DNA.
The result is that he develops his healing ability but, in the process, loses his good looks...but thankfully not his charm.
In the comics, a similar thing happens, but he actually ends up in a hospice, eventually escaping and then going on a killing rampage.
What is The Fourth Wall?
The fourth wall is the barrier between what we call "reality" and that of fiction.
Deadpool constantly breaks this fourth wall breaking tradition in comic books by speaking to his readers, sometimes even ers. However, his powers are relatively simple.
This is unusually for comic book characters because he is actually aware he is a fictional character.
And in Deadpool kills the Marvel Universe, he actually kills the entire Marvel roster and then breaks the fourth wall to kill his writers.
