This is the hidden origin of DEADPOOL
Die-hard Marvel fans deny it and debate it, but most people believe that Deadpool is really nothing more than a ripoff of the DC Comics character, Deathstroke. Deadpool was created by Fabian Nicieza and Rob Liefeld to be part of the New Mutants. Meanwhile, Deathstroke was already known for terrorizing the Teen Titans in the pages of DC Comics. Deathstroke, real identity Slade Wilson, was incredibly popular in the 1980s and the Teen Titans was a big seller for DC.
One of the most memorable stories was “The Judas Contract,” which featured assassin Deathstroke. So when Deadpool, otherwise known as Wade Wilson, was introduced at Marvel he looked a lot like a ripoff. According to creator Rob Liefeld, a self-professed Deathstroke fan, Deadpool is a totally different character. Because Deadpool seems to be a clear parody of Deathstroke, not all fans are happy with Liefeld’s comments.
