Deadpool 2/Once Upon a Deadpool[]
Weeks later Wade is still grieving the death of Vanessa. After visiting Blind Al's apartment for advice (and to inhale a bag of cocaine), he takes her remark of "never living until you've died a little" literally, going back home, smoking a cigarette before flicking it into one of the barrels of oil he was laying on top of to blow himself up, in order to "die a little". Colossus comes across Deadpool's strewn-about body parts, gathering them together in a bag so Wade's healing factor puts him back together. He brings him to the X-Mansion, where Wilson lays about for three days (again), Colossus tells him that if he would decide to join the X-Men, it would be a healing experience for him. He also meets Negasonic Teenage Warheads girlfriend Yukio who become fond of each other. Wade agrees to work with the X-Men and his first mission has them contain a violent mutant child named Russell who has fire based abilities. When Wade manages to subdue Russel he reveals to Wade that the staff at the Essex House for Mutant Rehabilitation have been abusing him. Wade then kills some of the staff in response only for Colossus to take him down. disgusted and hurt by Wade’s action he turns Wade in to the authorities as well. Both are transported to the “Icebox” a prison designed for criminal mutants where they are also given inhibitor collars to keep them from using their powers and in Wade’s case allows his cancer to spread. However the prison is soon attacked by a mysterious time traveler named Cable who reveals his intentions to kill Russel. Wade defends Russel and he and Cables fight lead to them both being blown out of the prison with Wade landing in a lake.
Near death, Wilson has vision of Vanessa in which she convinces him to help Collins. Wilson organizes a team of mutants he calls X-Force composed of Domino, Bedlam, Zeitgeist, Shatterstar, Vanisher, and a regular guy named Peter to break Collins out of a prison-transfer convoy and defend him from Cable. The team launches its assault on the convoy by parachuting from a plane, but all of the team-members except for Wilson and the lucky Domino die in the landing. While the pair fight Cable, Collins frees fellow inmate Juggernaut, who repays Collins by agreeing to help him kill the abusive orphanage headmaster. Juggernaut destroys the truck he and Collins are in, rips Wade in half, and he and Collins escape.
Returning to Blind Al to recover, Wade is confronted by Cable again who reveals that once Collins kills the headmaster that tormented him he goes on to become a murdering despot in the future who kills Cables wife and daughter when he tried to stop him. The two agree to a truce to work together to stop Collins and Juggernaut and that Cable will give Wilson 30 seconds to talk Collins down before he executes him himself. Getting a ride from Dopinder; Wade, Domino, and Cable stop at the X-Mansion to ask Colossus for his help who ignores him. They then arrive at the Essex House for Mutant Rehabilitation. While Domino goes to rescue the children (she reveals to Wade that she was once tormented at the school herself) Deadpool and Cable take on Juggernaut. However they prove to be no match for him until Colossus comes to their aid who had change of heart. While Colossus takes on Juggernaut (and is eventually able to defeat him thanks to Negasonic Teenage Warhead and Yukio), Wade and Cable try to stop Russel from killing the headmaster. When it seems to fail Cable attempts to shoot Collins only for Wilson to take the bullet for him (who is also wearing the inhibitor collar). Seeing that Wade really cares about him Russel gives up on his need for vengeance and Cables wife and child are spared as a result in the future. Wade then enters a death like state again and happily reunited with Vanessa however she tells them that it’s not his time yet and that the others still need him. Cable touched by Wade’s sacrifice rewinds time by saving Wade from the bullet he fired ensuring Wade survives (this however keeps him from returning home as his device only had enough charge for one jump). As the group leaves they are threatened by the headmaster who is killed by Dopinder soon after.
Later, Negasonic and Yukio, fix Cables time travel device for Wade allowing him to save Vanessa and Peter from death and kill his Weapon XI self from fighting Wolverine and Ryan Reynolds before the latter signs on for Green Lantern.
Character traits[]
Wade is a man with a deeply perverted, deranged and sometimes dark sense of humor. Probably Wade's most defining characteristics is his non stop motor mouth no matter the situation and his love of pop cultures from all periods of time such as referencing Mama June or having an Adventure Time wristwatch. As a mercenary Wade is usually only in for anything for money. He is pansexual, who will flirt outrageously with pretty much anyone.
Wade also displays some heroic traits as shown when he goes to great lengths to prevent mutant time traveler and soldier Cable from murdering teenager Russell Collins even if it was for the good of the future.
Powers and Abilities[]
Powers[]
- Mutate Physiology: A result of the rigorous Workshop experimentation, Wade's physiology was drastically altered. These experiments endowed him with greater physical capabilities, surpassing that of any human. He became faster, stronger, developed incredible mobility and practically indestructible. Wade's condition grants him the following powers:
- Superhuman Strength: Wilson has the strength to lift humans above his head and send them flying through the air with one arm. He headbutted against Angel Dust's without feeling anything and actually hurting her. He swung a fire extinguisher and sent Ajax flying through the air, dragged him hard enough to throw him into the air and impaled Ajax on a stone wall by stabbing through him and a stone wall.
- Superhuman Resilience: Wade's durability, stamina, vitality, virility and endurance have been enhanced to superhuman levels. He has a higher tolerance to pain, to the point where he could cut off his own arm, bash his head against a car panel, head butt Angel Dust, be caught in explosions, have his bones broken, be shot multiple times, fall several stories through a car roof, be rag dolled and tossed around by Ajax, and be shot anywhere on his body, even his anal canal, without being truly hurt or slowed down, with in some cases, him not seemingly feeling the attacks at all. He could be stunned, dazed or incapacitated by some attacks, such being first beaten by Ajax right after his transformation, or when all his bones were broken by Colossus, he fully recovered a few minutes later, and severing his arm, which left him to regenerate his arm overnight and even seemingly required bactine. He was also stabbed in the head, causing him to hallucinate animated unicorns and seemingly hear the song "Your The Inspiration" by the band Chicago (albeit somewhat distorted) until he remove the blade in his head.
- Superhuman Speed: Wade's speed, reflexes and reaction time were enhanced by the augmentation process. He is adept at melee to short ranged combat and even able to deflect bullets.
- Superhuman Mobility: Wade's agility, dexterity, balance, and body coordination are enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete. He could jump several feet into the air with enough force. He can perform feats of agility that would be impossible for the finest human athlete. Confined spaces can in no way limit his mobility, allowing him to overpower multiple attackers while inside a car.
- Accelerated Healing Factor: Wade possesses extremely accelerated healing and regenerative powers. bullet wounds, as well as slashes and other forms of cuts heal in seconds. Completely crushed bones and internal damages heal within several minutes. He even managed to regrow lost organs and bodily parts within hours and completely recover from being impaled and left inside a burning building, climbing out of the ashes unscathed the next morning. Certain damage, such as being stabbed through the brain, can impede him briefly, to the point of causing auditory and visual hallucinations. Losing body parts can sometimes impede him, as he needs time to regenerate more vital parts that are lost, as when he was forced to remove his hand and waited for it to grow back overnight using bactine to sterilize it. If Wade somehow dies, it won't be a permanent death. He is able to come back from any death that he may suffer and completely recover from all wounds and damages (internal and external).
- Immortality: Wade stays biologically young and healthy indefinitely; due to his extreme regenerative capabilities, which make him completely indestructible.
Abilities[]

His fighting style seems to comprise of Boxing, Taekwondo, Muay Thai, Kali, Karate, Brazilian Jujitsu, Pro Wrestling, Capoiera, and Krav Maga. He is able to overpower and kill several armed men after crashing into their car. Not even confined spaces could limit his skill. He is able to take highly skilled opponents such as Ajax and Cable.
- Master Swordsman: Wade's signature weapons are his dual katana blades, which combined with his agility, speed, and natural combat abilities, make two of his most highly efficient weapons. His swords allow him to cut through several trained gunmen with ease. He also used his great strength to lift a man above his head while skewering him.
- Master Marksman: Wade is highly skilled with firearms, his allowing him to hit precise targets without much effort. He used one bullet to kill three men standing in a line, shooting them all in the head while falling through the air.
- Master Knife Wielder/Thrower: Wilson is highly skilled with using knives in combat, whether it be up close or thrown. He was also shown to be able to throw a knife into a gunman's eye from several feet while running.
- Master Acrobat: Wade's agility, reflexes, balance, coordination, and speed make him a highly efficient acrobat. He has the combined agility and acrobatic prowess of the most accomplished circus aerialists and acrobats. He can perform feats of agility that would be impossible for the finest human athlete.
