History: Deadpool was a nameless mercenary who made a living of overcoming his mistakes by killing people and taking their identities. Using one such identity only known to readers as "Jack", he washed up at a cabin owned by Wade and Mercedes Wilson after botching an unspecified mercenary assignment. Snowed in by a large blizzard, Jack befriended the two and decided to take Wade's life as his own to avoid his employers. During the attempt in Wade's life, Jack ended up killing Mercedes. Losing his mind over killing someone he considered innocent, he reinvented his own history, putting himself in the victim's place whose paradise was torn assunder by an evil mercenary. Wade, left for dead, would actually survive and become a mercenary himself, later named T-Ray, and take the place of "Jack" in Deadpool's dellusion.
Years later, and back to mercenary work, Deadpool, now Wade Wilson, developed terminal cancer. He volunteered for the clandestine Weapon X program, where he was mutagenically altered. This process was supposed to grant him a superhuman regenerative healing factor allegedly based on the DNA of the mutant Wolverine, stopping the progression of his cancer and greatly enhancing his physique. However, the cancer interacted with the mutagenic process in unanticipated ways; the process (initially) failed, disfigured him horribly and made him mentally unstable.
Deadpool quickly washes out of Weapon X and is sent to the "Workshop", a place for failed experiments, where he is tortured and experimented upon. In the Workshop, he becomes part of a game called "the Dead Pool", where inmates bet on which of them will die next. As Deadpool has been chosen as a special project by Doctor Killebrew, his odds of dying are very low, making him the leader of the Dead Pool with thousand-to-one odds. Deadpool starts to see Death and falls in love with her. He decides to break the Dead Pool by doing anything to get himself killed so he can be with Death. His rebellious behavior inspires the other inmates of the Workshop; he is seen as a threat to the order in the Workshop but Killebrew refuses to let anyone die or be killed. It is only after Deadpool kills another inmate that Killebrew orders his death. But it is his execution that finally activates Deadpool's healing factor. He escapes with many other Weapon X washouts and takes on the name "Deadpool" and eventually returns to mercenary work. Typically, he works for villains such as the mysterious Mr. Tolliver, whom he worked for in his first appearance (although he was later shown to have worked for Wilson Fisk (Kingpin) and Roderick Kingsley (Hobgoblin) in a flashback. This initially makes him an adversary of Cable, Wolverine and the New Mutants (later X-Force). In one of his first few defeats by Cable, he is literally packaged up and sent back to his employer.
Eventually, Deadpool becomes less of a villain and more of a reluctant hero, though the element of his moral ambiguity remains. It is revealed that he has friends, such as Weasel and Blind Al, that he is loyal to and cares about (although he would often mistreat them at times, such as stabbing Weasel in the leg over the last Cheesy Poof or confining Blind Al in a room filled with sharp objects). Wade also developes deep friendships with some of the staff at the interdimensional firm known as Landau, Luckman & Lake - in particular, Zoe Culloden. Although careful to project the guise of an invincible, merciless, gun-for-hire, Deadpool often shows he is actually an insecure and severely scarred man, emotionally and physically, who uses his sardonic wit to cope with reality and deal with relationships.
Deadpool frequents a hang-out spot for mercenaries called "Hell House" with its own odd cast of characters, has an often comedic rivalry with the aforementioned T-Ray, and eventually the inclusion of Deuce the Devil Dog, who originally belonged to Franklin "Foggy" Nelson, best pal and partner of the Marvel superhero Daredevil. He often runs into other mercenaries such as the Taskmaster and Bullseye during his adventures. It is also at this time that Deadpool's relationship with Siryn is strengthened as she helps him deal with the loss of his full range of healing powers and with his tortured past. Syrin's belief in him makes Deadpool try to be a better person. He also has a brief and disturbing relationship with Typhoid Mary, who plays a dramatic foil to Syrin and trying to plunge Deadpool deeper into his own dark side.
Deadpool has died thrice in the past. First was the aforementioned event at the Workshop that kick started his healing factor. Later, Wade had decided to rejoin the Weapon X program to regain his good looks. However, after witnessing his girlfriend, Copycat (Vanessa Carlyle) slaughtered by the program, he was heavily gunned down, while trying to get revenge on his former employers. Luckily, Thanos resurrected him because he was envious that Death was falling in love with Deadpool. In what may be billed as a parody of The Death of Superman, four false Deadpools appeared upon Wade's death, each personifying a different aspect of his personality. The first was an idealistic superhero with traditional ideals reminiscent of Superman's. The second was a Punisher-esque figure crime fighter and mercenary who took pleasure in killing his targets. The third was an absurdist pop culture star along the lines of Tom Green or Bam Margera. The final Deadpool was completely insane, and throughout the arc, spoke only the words "No Pickles." These four, as well as Deadpool's inner child, his feminine side, his inner geek, and his inner stand-up comedian (sharing the appearance and catchphrase of Rodney Dangerfield) were absorbed accidentally into T-Ray, mind-wiping the villain.
Lastly, it appeared that Deadpool was killed in an explosion fighting the aristocratic (and telepathic) villain known as the Black Swan[2]. Swan had infected Deadpool with a virus that would erase his memory in retaliation for several of his successful mercenary hits which had been erroneously attributed to Deadpool. This led to an escalation of events in which Swan murdered a man known as Nijo (who initially had thought Deadpool responsible for his brothers death only to discover that it was Swan who had killed his brother) and a duel with Deadpool. Deadpool and Swan fought, but as result of a miscalculation on Deadpool's part, all parties were seemingly obliterated.
Weeks later, a mysterious figure showed up at the apartment of Deadpool's manager, Sandi Brandenburg. The man took the name Alex Hayden and together they started "Agency X," with Hayden dubbed Agent X after the company. Most believed that Hayden was Deadpool with a case of amnesia. In fact, the truth was more complicated, as shown when the Black Swan showed up with a "tabula rasa" Deadpool in tow (whom Hayden immediately shot in the head). It was revealed that "Hayden" was really Nijo's corpse, which had been revived and given Deadpool's healing factor by Swan's out-of-control mental powers (Swan had also received a copy of the healing factor) and whose mind was created from an amalgam of Deadpool and the Swan. Deadpool's own personality was slowly growing back (unwittingly accelerated by Hayden's bullet to his head).
In an attempt to regain the parts of his mind he had lost, as well as remove the pieces of their minds he wanted rid of ("You and Wilson have my skills, Mr Hayden. In return, I received a taste for Radiohead and an encyclopedic knowledge of pornographic knock-knock jokes. Yes, I'd like to switch back if possible"), including Nijo's sense of honor, Swan proposed a three-way mind meld. Hayden agreed. However, the Swan, being an evil cad, attempted to double cross the other two and kill them as soon as the process was complete, but while he concentrated on Hayden, Deadpool immediately stabbed the Swan in the back. Deadpool, Hayden and Hayden's allies Outlaw and Taskmaster eventually defeated and killed the Swan and had him stuffed so that the healing factor couldn't resurrect him (Hayden would later be shown using the corpse as a surfboard). Shortly after, Deadpool became one of the villains to find the Identity Disc.
Deadpool is currently partnered with his former enemy, Cable. Recently, Deadpool and Cable were involved with a terrorist plot aimed at unleashing the shape-shifting "Façade Virus" upon the world. After both were infected with the virus, it was necessary to merge their DNA structure, so now Cable has some of Deadpool's DNA and vice versa. This means that whenever Cable uses his teleporter to "bodyslide", both he and Deadpool teleport together -- sometimes literally (a "bodyslide by one" results in them being badly integrated into a single body, forcing a messy separation, which, thanks to the DNA share with Wade, Cable is also able to recover from). As a result of the Façade in his system, Deadpool's face was temporarily cured of the hideous scarring. Once Cable shut down all infections of the virus worldwide however, Deadpool was returned to his usual self.
The X-Men, including Cable's father Cyclops, then hired Deadpool to put together the pieces of a mini-teleporter that they could use to stop Cable, who had achieved the peak of his powers and was causing a worldwide political ruckus in attempting to unite the world's populace.
After Cable then delivered a stark message to the world's leaders - deliberately setting them all against him by threatening to throw all their missiles into the sun - Deadpool and the X-Men mounted an attack on Cable's artificial island Providence, whereupon Deadpool promptly turned on the X-Men, shooting Wolverine and Bishop to prevent them from attacking Cable. Cable then confessed to Deadpool that he'd wanted him to kill him, to show the governments that they could achieve something by working together. Cable was then attacked by the Silver Surfer and burnt out his powers in the ensuing battle, and Deadpool saved his life by removing the telepathic and telekinetic parts of his brain with the mini-teleporter, and then recovering non-viral techno-organic matter to replace the damage it had caused to Cable's body. The aftermath of this betrayal of his employers, however, left Deadpool publicly unemployable - whereupon Cable began to covertly hire him to run missions for him, without revealing that he was the one doing so.
Shortly afterward, Deadpool would rescue Cable again, teleporting through several alternate worlds to retrieve him, and Cable returned the favor by repairing Deadpool's brain damage before his powers burnt out once more, though his personality remained unchanged.
Deadpool commonly develops obsessions with words and people, repeatedly mentioning the words duct tape, duodenum and chimichanga, the phrase "Sphincter says what?", and is frequently preoccupied by thoughts of Bea Arthur, Ernest Borgnine, and the Olsen Twins.
In the Widdle Wade special, Deadpool was revealed to have once been a sumo-wrestler, though this may merely be a dig at Wolverine's memories of his past life, at that time heavily Ninja-and-Japanese-culture-themed.
Wade also has been made a member of the X-Men on at least two separate occasions (once in Cable & Deadpool, and once in a current alternate world version of Weapon X). Despite this, Deadpool is not a mutant, a fact that others (especially Cyclops and other members of the X-Men) have pointed out numerous times as a reason for rejecting him (this has not stopped non-mutants from joining the X-Men; Mimic was not a mutant, for example).
