Marvel Announces the Death of Deadpool

by on

Deadpool will be dead at 50...issue #50, that is.

There's a lot of people that love Deadpool as well as those that can't stand him. He's always been an interesting character, especially when written the right way. Now as DEADPOOL approaches the 50th issue, none of that may matter as it looks like Deadpool has an appointment...with Lady Death.

Could this be it? Has everyone’s favorite Merc With A Mouth finally made an appointment with Lady Death? This February, witness the biggest change in Deadpool’s life as “DEAD” kicks off in Deadpool #50! From the creative team of Daniel Way & Carlo Barberi, Deadpool’s lease on life is about to expire and those around him are going to feel the consequences including X-Force! Following the epic battle with his former body parts gone rogue, Wade Wilson makes a monumental decision that will forever change who he is. See how it all goes down this February, in Deadpool #50!

Could it be possible? Could this really be the end/death of Deadpool? Well, we have seen Johnny Storm, Bucky Barnes and Thor all recently die. Then again, look at where they're all at now. We'll find out the fate of Deadpool in February.

DEADPOOL #50 (DEC110676)

Anyone who takes this news seriously in any way, shape or form does not understand Deadpool or has not been reading the book...... not referring to you, G-Man, btw, I'm just kind of grinning because I know the premise of all this.

I only know him from cable/deadpool and x-force so kind of like him, the main deadpool title is worth reading ?

Posted by Sammo21

@wowylied: Yeah, his series is pretty fun. I dropped it when MARVEL went into Deadpool overload but it was fun.

Posted by buttersdaman000

And why did Marvel feel they needed to announce this?

aawww. damn it. now what crazy powered being am i going to look up to ? moon knight? ppfff NO.

Posted by Outside_85

Will be back in short order.

Having lived through several comic events this is the first time i actually realized why they do these. I haven't read Deadpool since shortly after Secret Invasion due to Way's buchery of the Character but i'm diving straight back in. I cant miss the -insert pre-determined duration- death of my favourite character (pre Daniel Way). All the deaths and other random events suddenly makes sense as a marketing tool.

Another Marvel Death....

LLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLL.

He's not dead. lmao.

WAIT!? Didn't Thanos cursed Deadpool with life so he could never be with Death? If so how can he die?

Posted by MetropolisKid41

Well if he is truly dying then that means Marvel is blantantly ignoring the curse of immortality that Thanos placed on him 10+ years ago, unless they plan to bring that in somehow. Seems like Marvel's up to its old ways, when they can't find a way to write a character or make him interesting they just kill them to sell books. And with a Deadpool movie in the works he will no doubt return quick. But my guess is he won't die at all.

Posted by Axdemon

As far as I can tell, there's no signal that this is the last issue in the book, so I expect TALES OF DEADPOOL IN HELLLLLLL.

This is what happens when you let Daniel Way write a complex character. He can't come up with any more good ideas (considering he ran out of them after #12 when Deadpool and Bullseye fought) so he kills the character off.

Joe Kelly, bring back Deadpool.

shame Deadpool is shit

Posted by entropy_aegis

LOLOLOLOL.

Posted by DXmagma

Deadpool dies, rest of series becomes about him resurrecting dead characters.

Posted by NyxEquitis

Fellow Deadpool fans don't be worried, I'm sure he'll be back quite shortly.

Posted by yteez

how bout leavin DP alone and just killing the book's writer ? (i'm willing to settle with just changing him with the one that used to write Cable/Deadpool or DP's solo series in the 90's)

Posted by Daveyo520

I am sure that will last.

Posted by Chaos Burn

I hope he at least goes out well

Posted by The Devil Tiger

Marvel death is as Marvel comics what New-york minute is at standar minute.

Posted by laabitres

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyis marvel killin off everybody

Posted by FireFlare153

The moment he dies, I'll start the the resurrection timer. I'll bet about 6 months.

Posted by KEROGA

no! (sigh)here we go again

Posted by CODYSF

You know who killed him Deathstroke he was tired of that bootleg clown.

Posted by Edgeworth_11

Deadpool will never die.

Posted by Gambit1024

Isn't he, like, immortal or something?

Posted by Doctor!!!!!

Deadpool goes to hell.... what a adventure. Then he goes to heaven... because he got kicked out of hell!

Posted by Or35ti

I thought Deadpool couldn't die?

Posted by Chibi-Iroh

If Wade does infact die then it needs to be in a way that is true to his character, comic, and a true WTF moment. He should stay dead for at least 5 years but still show up in some capacity in the comics even if it is as a ghost.

Posted by BritishMonkey

he won't be dead for long

he'd annoy lady death so much she'd kick him out and deadpool will be revived

Posted by Billy Batson

hah!
BB

Posted by Mr. Dead Pool

NO!!!!!! Sure he'll come back in a few months(hopefully sooner and with a new and better writer), but still!

Yup.

If we're going by 90s Deadpool, Lady Death is actually in love with him.

But since this is Way-Pool, yes, he would annoy her to no end.

Posted by Mr. Kamikaze

Let Daniel Way kill him, and have Remender revive him...and keep him. Uncanny X-Force Deadpool is so much better than any other Deadpool out there right now.

Posted by Ganthetsward20

I love Deadpool, I wish he was written differently then how he currently is. I'm not surprised though. With Evil Deadpool here I bet he will carry the series or he will be the Deadpool that actually dies. If they do kill him I hope they keep him dead till they can find someone who can write him up marvelously...he's the only character i enjoy reading from marvel and its not been as fun for me as it use to be.

Posted by The Stegman

judging from some comments on here...it appears that the rumors of his death might be greatly exaggerated. 
 
 
also, to those who are reading his comic and knows what this means, either tell us, or leave, inside jokes are rude 
 >.<  

Posted by Dedpool

Hmmms. Well he can't contact Thanos and release him from his never death cause Thanos is on the Cancerverse. I wonder how this will play out.

Posted by Green ankh

I'd love to see him be gone. DEAD and GONE. I never understood the fanfare behind anything deadpool.

Posted by rico_3088

damn, that sucks but maybe they will bring him back a little more serious

Posted by darkrider

he will be back in issue 51 or 50.1

Because they killed him with over exposure. I think Quesada said at one time that they kill people because they want fans to miss the character and have the character return stronger than ever.... and hopefully for Marvel, a stronger fan-base.
