Because the Deadpool fad has passed, and people are sick of him.
I think, that Marvel should, only sell one comic book aboput Deadpool and say good bye to the rest of comics, that will help him to regain fame, also they need to start making the movie, before Deadpool lose his momentum.
Like they said before, he's being overused.
Deadpool can handle two on-goings but anything more is overkill. Also both of those on-goings would have to be well written which is the biggest problem right now. Daniel Way's series has gone nowhere and is going nowhere, Deadpool MAX is probably the best Deadpool ongoing right now but it's not for everybody mainly because it feels like an indie title and the artwork requires a certain taste, Corps and Team-Up are getting canned for being so bad.
All of theses series are dropping because it's overkill and they are badly written. Although we seem to be able to handle Deadpool if he's written well. Just look at Uncanny X-Force, that series is doing great numbers and people love Deadpool in that.
Bottom line, Deadpool would sell more if there were only two on-going series and better writing.
Because Daniel Way and everyone writing him since Kelly/Simone have sucked horribly.
It's Deadpool at any cost. I'd rather have no Deadpool than all the massive amounts of shit Deadpool we're getting. The Silver Surfer hasn't had an on-going since his last one got cancelled because they are waiting for the right person to write it, write it well and keep it going beyond 30 issues. I don't see why they won't do the same with Deadpool.
I hate the fact that they give him voices in his head, that's stupid. No other writers used it, and it's annoying. Duane Swierczyski wrote Deadpool: Wade WIlson's War and it was one of the best portrayals of Deadpool I've ever read. He can write Cable well too. I don't get why Marvel don't simply cancel his shit, except maybe his main on-going, and just bring back Cable and Deadpool with Swierczynski on it. He sells less because the writers and premises suck, and Marvel aren't doing anything to change it.
I know. They can start the series and have him come back during it. Begin it with Deadpool's search for Cable and then bring him into the fold.
Obviously this wouldn't be able to happen YET, because I think Deadpool needs a rest. I just think that's how they should bring him back if they do.

all of them are still basically outselling the comics I read...
however, very few comics gain readers as time progresses, it's just the way of things...sure, new people may start picking it up, but more people are dropping it
" SS is getting a mini-series on the 16th, I was enthusiastic at first, but now not so much. 5 issues then he turns into a filler again. "Maybe it will be epic though.

I didnt read all the comment so not sure if someone has said this, but without a rogue gallery of villians deadpool really has no story arc worth reading, sure he's over saturating the market but if he was able to have a story arc with a villian worth fighting this wouldnt be an issue, with cable and bullseye dead, spiderman joining that horrible fantastic four thing, T-ray, Domino, Ajax, Taskmaster, Sluggo and so on being mysteriously not worth using with deadpool... he's stuck with his corps of clones with identical personalities. Gotta agree the writers they have on deapool are hacks, team up and corps are cancelled thankfully though.

" What im pissed about this Deadpool fad is that Marvel wasn't smart enough to release trades of his first ongoing and maybe Agent X. "aGENT X DOESN'T DESERVE A TRADE..DEADPOOL'S WRITERS ALREADY DECIDED THEY WERE GOING TO MAKE HIM WORTHLESS FOR DEADPOOL'S SAKE....
"because he is being over-used and people are growing bored with the character. and it's a shame, because Deadpool is a good character but this is what happens when publishers push a character too hard. "
But thats the thing! Spiderman is horribly overused, but do people complain? No. and that is what gets me
However if you look at the sales data. Deadpool’s main series sales go UP and Down just like any book so not too much to worry about there.
I for one will never get sick of the guy - ive liked him since I was a kid till the point where now he is my fave character by miiiiles. However I don’t contribute to these sales statistics anymore because I now buy trades instead of comics :)

When Spider-Man appears in someone elses comics it's usually because that or those characters need his help.Deadpool has appeared in alot of books since Civil War he had no business being in for some cheap comedy.He even appears in team books where the team has specifically expressed not wanting him on the team or made fun of him.On top of it they spread him around with all these different miniseries and most of them sucked.His fans didn't even like them.When Spider-Man had different miniseries and a solo book things happened in those books that ACTUALLY mattered." @Caligula said:

That's terrible news, having Daniel Way's series and Deadpool MAX is perfect! Not to many series but not to little. A nice healthy dose of variety." @Delta Red: Is good news, meaby they will decide to only make one, that is great number after number, see the positive side of life. "
" @Vance Astro: That dont change the fact, Spiderman is a shadow and only sell comic books thanks to his movies and the horrible movie vision. "This isn't even a fact.Spider-Man has almost always been a top seller for Marvel, where did you get this nonsense?
" They should take Deadpool off of Uncanny X-Force as well. He is not a good fit on that team. "How isn't he a good fit?
This isn't true either.Brand New Day Spider-Man was pretty happy.Actually Spider-Man has been pretty happy alot lately and his comics sell very well@Vance Astro:Watch the fact how much the new fans, hate every oother option of Spiderman and how Emo Spiderman sell and not happy Spiderman. "

Spider-Man had his first animated series before I was even born and i'm 24.There was a Japanese Series made for Spider-Man that also came out before I was even born.He had three different animated series during my childhood two on Fox and one on MTV.I don't know where you're getting this stuff.Spider-Man has been on for years before he had one film.Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends the TV series was before my time as well." @Vance Astro said:

" @The Lobster : Cmon, you make it sound like if Way, was the only option, i know people love Max, but since day one everybody knew it was going to live a year or two.Once MAX is gone, yes he is the only option. Way's series would be the last Deadpool series on the market. Sure Deadpool will be in Uncanny X-Force but that's an X-men series, not a Deadpool series.
" @Vance Astro: Deadpool does nothing on Uncanny X-Force. He's supposed to be the comic relief of the team, but he just rambles incoherently on and on and on while the rest of the team is super serious. He just doesn't fit in my opinion. Also, I never really liked Deadpool, he's more annoying to me than funny, so there might be some bias there. "I have to disagree with you there, but only in a healthy debate fashion.

Define " ACTUALLY mattered"
But I see what you are trying to say, however one appearance that comes to mind for me is when DP appears in MS Marvel, which I thought was brilliant.
I read DP because every time I do I walk way really uplifted and filled with joy - something that most other comics don’t come close to achieving.
But whateva man, each to their own aye ;)
The "let's spread him around so that people become familiar with him" tactic only works if the character is actually going to do something.Deadpool's appearance in Ms.Marvel could have not happened and nothing would be different.You can't use a bunch of meaningless appearances to try and get people to like a character because as soon as they read his books and find out he's nothing more than a joke and that most of what he does has 0 impact on the Marvel Universe..they aren't going to read it.If New Avengers got someone liking Spider-Man, I'm sure they would be disappointed if he was written anything like Deadpool.It's the same stuff over and over.Define " ACTUALLY mattered"

it's probably because Wolverine has a lot of new books they seem to be trading who is loved then hated.
I'm betting by the end of next year people are going to start getting mad cuz Wolverine is in too much and then they'll start looking for Deadpool and we will start this love hate roller coaster all over again,

" @Unbreakable Bracelets: he found out how kill the Skrull QueenRight and then Norman Osborn stole the plans and became an American Hero...good job.
he's had plenty of his own on-goings that go for 2-3 years and has done stuff with characters other than just Cable and Wolverine.He owes his popularity to those two characters.I know he's has\had an ongoing...doesn't change what I just said.
