Known as Deadpool in the alternate reality of Earth-12101, this trained assassin becomes dangerously disturbed and henceforth known as Dreadpool.
A Twisted Turn of Events
Hailing from Earth-12101, Wade Wilson, AKA Deadpool, is a loose cannon. He burns the Smithsonian to the ground, he’s overdrawn at the bank and he has several annulled marriages. When the X-Men see fit to get him help, they take him against his will to Ravenscroft Asylum, a place of healing. There, Dr. Benjamin Brighton, AKA Psycho-Man, introduces radical treatments for its patients’ troubled minds, treatments that the X-Men’s leader Xavier hopes could help Deadpool where he and the X-Men could not.
When the staff at Ravencroft attempt to remove his costume, Deadpool puts up a fight. They eventually get him into a straight jacket but leave his mask on. It’s then that Dr. Brighton reveals that his alter ego, Psycho-Man, will step in when he cannot “fix” Deadpool, making him a more efficient killer in the hopes that he would use Deadpool in an army he planned to create. Deadpool fights off Dr. Brighton’s control and kills him by opening up his head to find a teeny tiny Psycho-Man behind the wheel that was Brighton’s body. He smashes him to bits and despite defeating Psycho-Man, Deadpool becomes something else, something darker. He becomes Dreadpool.
Dreadpool then finds a cosmic taser in Mister Fantastic’s lab and takes down Uatu the Watcher, the being that observes Deadpool’s reality.
Regeneration’ Degenerate
Deadpool is skilled in armed and unarmed combat. He has a regenerative healing factor that makes him nearly unkillable.
His Own Worst Enemies
Seeing everyone around him as puppets, Wade takes on the entirety of his universe’s Super Heroes and Super Villains, killing them all. When he’s done, he moves on to the rest of the Multiverse. Though he specifically targets alternate versions of himself, believing them to be the Progenitors of their respective universes. He takes on the Deadpool Corps, though a dysfunctional coalition of variant Deadpools, a heroic one nonetheless and while he gathers evil Deadpools to help him, everyone perishes except the head of the Corps, Wade Wilson, AKA Deadpool, of Earth-616, who fatally takes him down.
Forced Friends and Evil Deadpools
Deadpool forces an alliance with his world’s Arcade, having him build vessels to contain mutants he struggles to kill, and the Puppet Master to take down notorious villains.
He even teams up with his evil alternate selves from across the Multiverse to stop the more heroic ones, and succeeds to an extent. Some of these doppelgänger Deadpools include Earth-1108’s Deadpool Kid, Earth-1610’s Deadpool, and Dead Man Wade from Earth-295.
Killing the Marvel Universe
Once altered, Wade began killing his world’s first family, the Fantastic Four. When Sue Storm came upon Wade killing her brother Johnny, she imploded his head with a force field. But with Wade’s healing factor, his head grew right back and he took Sue’s life.
Wade continued his killing spree, focusing on both Super Heroes and Super Villains. Among the dead was Spider-Man, the Avengers, starting with Black Panther, Tigra and Iron Fist as well as members from the X-Men. He then killed Hank Pym and stole his Pym Particles, using them to shrink down bombs that he strategically placed in the Avengers headquarters, taking all but Thor out. He then used the Pym Particles to enlarge Thor’s hammer to gargantuan size and as it returned to Thor, it crushed him. He then soon dispatched the Hulk as well.
As a response to Wade’s killing spree, the loved ones of the fallen heroes gathered their valuables and hired Taskmaster to track and kill Wade. Meanwhile, Wade took out Doctor Strange, Wong, and the remaining X-Men. But he didn’t stop with heroes. He took down the likes of Magneto as well and other Super Villains. He also used Arcade to trap them should their powerset be too difficult to capture and permanently maim, such as Kitty Pryde, X-23, Daken and Wolverine. He forced the Puppet Master to take down villains in a more efficient manner, killed the Punisher, and then moved onto cosmic beings like the Silver Surfer, Thanos, Nova and Galactus.
Wade then traveled to the Nexus of All Realities where the Taskmaster caught up with him. As they battled, Wade revealed that they were merely puppets and only he could save them from endless continuity. Though successfully mimicking Wade’s every move, Taskmaster was interrupted by Man-Thing, who touched him and no one who knew fear survived, including the professional imitator. Man-Thing then sacrificed himself to Wade’s cause, allowing Wade to enter the Nexus. Dropping into a new reality, Wade murdered his way across realities, taking out those that pulled the puppet strings: the writers’ room of Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe, breaking the fourth wall and threatening to come for readers.
Wade continued his massacre across the Multiverse by taking down classic literature in the Ideaverse, and then targeted his alternate selves and as such soon became known as Dreadpool. He gathered a group of evil Deadpools to combat the Deadpool Corps, a team of Deadpools from alternate universes led by Earth-616’s Deadpool. After the groups killed each other, the only two that survived were Dreadpool and 616-Deadpool. Though Dreadpool was convinced by his counterpart that he was wrong, 616-Deadpool killed him for killing his friends.
