Background
Wade was originally a mercenary who developed cancer and voluntarily joined an inhumane experiment in hopes of surviving. The experiment granted him an extreme healing factor but did not remove the cancer; his body continually destroys and restores itself, leaving him perpetually close to death. The process also disfigured his face, which Wade compares to an avocado. 512
He later operated alongside the X-Men during the Hammer Industries conflict. Entangled by drone battle-suit chains, Wade remained behind during the incoming explosions and casually yawned while being thrown through the air by the blast. 72
After arriving in the DC universe, Wade joined the Suicide Squad and later became an MIB agent. Andrew supplied him with a Teleportation Belt, while Wade began using MIB equipment for personal schemes, including attempting to acquire replacement suits for resale. 643 658 686
During the Bee Star invasion, Wade was injected with Bee Star genes while theatrically “protecting” Orm. The genes proved compatible with his body, substantially improving his regeneration and allowing him to reshape his body into tentacles or a Bee Star-like form. 689 699 881
Appearance
Wade usually wears a red-and-black Deadpool suit and mask. His scarred, disfigured face is repeatedly compared to an avocado, though he was described as handsome before the experiment that gave him his healing factor. 512 882
- Red-and-black full-body costume, often restored by nanoparticles after injury or self-destruction. 882 970
- Deeply scarred, “avocado-like” face beneath the mask. 512 882
- Can transform his arms into long tentacles or assume a Bee Star form. 689 881
- His Skyfather-era body carries highly toxic flesh and blood; consuming it can be lethal. 2117
Personality
Wade is reckless, shameless, and intensely self-interested, but he is rarely frightened by danger because he expects to regenerate from almost anything. He regularly treats lethal missions as entertainment, negotiates payment before acting, and regards self-destruction as an opportunity to make an impressive entrance. 665 994 2907
He is obsessed with his own supposed popularity, repeatedly claims to be the protagonist of comics, films, and novels, and believes his audience appeal makes him impossible to kill. This fixation becomes especially pronounced when he speaks to cosmic beings such as the Lord of Order. 1280 2456 2657
Despite his unreliability, Wade can act decisively when necessary. He has fought alongside MIB forces, the Suicide Squad, Wolverine, and the Deadpool Legion, and he is capable of following orders when a mission, payment, or personal interest is at stake. 969 1610 2903
Abilities & Skills
Regeneration and Immortality
Wade's original healing factor continuously repairs damage caused by his cancer-ridden body and allows him to survive injuries that would destroy ordinary mutants.
- Reassembled after the simultaneous explosion of War Machine and thirty drone battle suits. 72
- Regenerated from scattered flesh and blood within roughly a minute after his Bee Star enhancement. 644
- Can recover after being reduced to fragments by powerful explosions. 1614
- Regrows severed limbs; stolen arms were later used by Kane Perry to obtain Skyfather power. 2124
- His Immortal Body Ability also restores stamina and power, not merely physical wounds. 3111
Bee Star Gene Manipulation
Bee Star genes allow Wade to alter his body more freely than before and resist external control.
- Transforms his arms into tentacles for striking, blocking energy fire, and grappling enemies. 689 881
- Controls detached body parts, making dismemberment tactically ineffective against him. 689
- Assumes a Bee Star-like form capable of firing lasers from his tentacles. 971
- Resisted Bee Star control attempts, prompting the Bee Star commander to halt gene injections into other superheroes. 689
Enhanced Mutant Arsenal
Andrew's enhanced Deadpool serum gave Wade numerous mutant abilities beyond his natural healing factor.
- Teleportation — can instantly reposition himself, though he originally relied on equipment and his belt could malfunction or enter cooldown. 643 644 969
- Magnetism — halted and redirected a missile barrage toward enemy warships. 970
- Energy absorption — absorbed nuclear energy and enemy fire through Black King Sebastian's ability before detonating against an Iron Blood Empire flagship. 993 994
- Heat vision, bone claws, super speed, sonic waves, and shockwaves — among the powers explicitly supplied by the enhanced serum. 969
- Cold generation and ability transfer — froze Billy with cold air, then extracted Billy's fire-puppet ability for Annie. 1610
Psychic and Illusion Powers
Wade possesses Professor X's psychic abilities, though his chaotic mind makes them dangerous to both targets and himself.
- Professor Charles avoids entering Wade's mind, fearing the encounter would make his own head “explode.” 151
- Used psychic power to challenge the Queen of Blades mentally and disrupt Zerg coordination. 994
- Pulled Mephisto into a chaotic hallucination, exploiting advanced Chaos Rules to keep him trapped. 2871
- Psychic use can backfire, potentially worsening Wade's own mental instability. 2871
Dark Phoenix Power
Wade can access Dark Phoenix power under certain circumstances.
- Manifested black flame wings that decomposed Odin's World Sealing Technique. 1614
- Uses decomposition to destroy barriers, seals, and armor. 1614 1615
- Cannot fuse with the Phoenix Force merely through genetic manipulation, as it is not an X-Gene ability. 994
Self-Destruction
Wade frequently weaponizes his immortality by detonating himself, then regenerating afterward.
- Eliminated International Gang soldiers by turning red and exploding after Orm threw him into their formation. 729
- Destroyed the front half of Howard's laboratory to protect Tim and Charmander. 882
- Used absorbed nuclear energy to breach and destroy the Iron Blood Empire's main ship. 994
- Combined nuclear bombs, Hellfire, and self-destruction into a massive shockwave against the Conqueror Kangs. 2907
Combat Skill
Before becoming Deadpool, Wade was a capable mercenary. His fighting style combines close-quarters skill, improvised tactics, dual blades, and a willingness to absorb damage deliberately. 512 686 3104
- Uses Andrew-made lightblade swords to sever biological spaceship tentacles and reflect energy beams. 686
- Fights while using his own body parts, explosions, and regenerating limbs as weapons. 729 3048
- Can create clones, including one strong enough to battle Odin while the original raced Flash. 1615
Equipment / Weapons / Items
- Teleportation Belt — Andrew's belt enables teleportation and contains a communicator; it has a cooldown period and may teleport Wade inaccurately. 643 644 665
- Lightblade swords — twin energy blades given to Wade by Andrew; can cut through biological tentacles and reflect energy beams. 686
- MIB black suit — standard MIB gear with monitoring and tracking functions; Wade repeatedly attempts to exploit the replacement policy. 670 686

Relationships
- Andrew Wang / Mechanical Demon King / King of Abilities — Wade's employer, supplier of equipment and powers, and frequent target of Wade's complaints. Andrew considers Wade useful but unpredictable, repeatedly manipulates him through pay, contracts, and missions. 643 969 1351
- Death — Wade's admirer, ally, and frequent handler. Death finds him uniquely interesting, calls him an ultimate weapon, and repeatedly sends him on dangerous missions because he is so difficult to kill. 512 1025 1347
- Thanos — rival for Death's affection. Their encounters repeatedly devolve into violent fights and mutual insults. 512 518 1940
