Marvel’s universe has changed, its entire
line is being slowly relaunched (I know, this is about the 10th time
now) and I figured it’s time for me to properly embrace the Marvel line and
take a look at a few of their new series. And by a few we’ll be looking at
titles for 4 of the next 5 months.
We start with the Merc with the mouth
himself, Deadpool. Created as in intentional ripoff of Teen Titan’s
Deathstroke. Wade Wilson was eventually differentiated from Slade with a few
elements of character and back story. He was a part of the Weapon X programme,
the same scheme that gave Wolverine his powers and was given regenerative
powers from it. The problem is he had cancer and the treatment regenerates his
cancer as well as his normal cells.
