Deadpool is a comic book character sometimes depicted as a mercenary or antihero; he was created by artist Rob Liefeld and writer Fabian Nicieza and first appeared in The New Mutants #98 (February 1991).
Nicknamed the "Merc with a Mouth", Deadpool 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.
