Is Deadpool a Rip-Off of Deathstroke? | Comic Misconceptions
🕑 Added 2015-02-18 17:05:42 +0000 UTC Deadpool and Deathstroke may seem like very similar characters, but was Marvel's Merc with a Mouth truly a shameless rip-off from DC's Deathstroke? Did Rob Liefeld and Fabian Nicieza intentionally set out to make a carbon copy of Slade Wilson when they created Wade Wilson? Or is it possible that the whole thing was a crazy coincidence and Deadpool's likeness to Deathstroke is completely unrelated or perhaps even subconscious? A lot of questions here, so let me know your thoughts in the comments! Every Wednesday, Comic Misconceptions explores the fun trivia, interesting ideas, and mind-blowing theories regarding comic books and the rich history and culture that surrounds them!

It would be fun is Deadpool is the multiverse's "antibody" to the smug seriousness of Deathstroke -- a comedic Sentry to the latter's Void.
