Created by artist Rob Liefeld and writer Fabian Nicieza, Dead first appeared in The New Mutants #98 (February 1991). Nicknamed the "Merc' with a Mouth", Wade is a high-tech mercenary known for his wisecracks, black comedy, and satirical pop-culture references. Like the X-Men's Wolverine, Deadpool is the product of the Canadian government's paramilitary Weapon X program, although his place of birth is unknown. After Weapon X cured his terminal cancer by implementing a regenerative "healing factor" extracted from Wolverine, Deadpool is left disfigured and mentally unstable.

Deadpool was originally an adversary of The New Mutants and later X-Force. Ryan Reynolds appears as Deadpool in the 2009 film X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Biography Edit. Wolverine Files 000: True Origin. Version 4.00, last updated on March 12, 2011.
