Deadpool The 10 Weirdest Comic Book Arcs

When it comes to weird comic book characters, few reach the level of Deadpool. Created by Fabian Nicieza and Rob Liefeld, Deadpool is a mercenary antihero who breaks the fourth wall and talks to the audience while self-aware that he is a comic book character in a fictional world. This opens the chance for Deadpool to take part in some of Marvel’s most bizarre adventures.

Deadpool usually sticks to himself, or, on rare occasions, works with someone like X-Force, but his stories never follow a linear path and often veer off into unexpected directions. He has bonded with Death, took part in classic Marvel events behind the scenes, and even killed the entire Marvel Universe in a method that actually made it canon.

10 Deadpool And Death Annual #1

Deadpool can’t di; he has one of the most effective healing factors in all of comics and can regrow body parts quickly when he needs to recover. However, in Deadpool Vol 3 17 by Joe Kelly and Walter McDaniel, Deadpool falls from a cliff and dies. That led to 1988’s Deadpool and Death Annual where Death showed up and plants a kiss on him.

This is where Deadpool reveals through the story the first time he met Death, how he really wanted to go to her, but he couldn’t die and just keeps returning repeatedly. It’s one of the strangest romances in any Deadpool comic—or any Marvel comic, for that matter.

9 Deadpool Corps

If one Deadpool is weird, imagine an entire corps of Deadpools. A Marvel version of the Captain Britain Corps if all the members were completely out of their minds, it contains some of the weirdest alternate versions of Deadpool yet seen in the Marvel comics.

Deadpool and Lady Deadpool were the leaders of the group, and they were joined by everyone from Kidpool and Dogpool to Headpool and Beard of Beespool. The team, comprised of Deadpools from across the multiverse, had its own comic series, which ran for 12 issues. Every member ended up dying in the Deadpool Kills Deadpool miniseries.

8 Deadpool Annual #1 (2013)

In 2013, Beck Acker and Ben Blacker released Deadpool Annual 2013 #1. This comic book arc went back in time and explained why Deadpool had those white text boxes talking to him in the comics.

Deadpool met Madcap, and the two battled Daredevil and Thor. When Thor killed them both, they ended up merged into one being, and the white text box was Madcap. This book then revealed what happened next.

7 Deadpool Vs. Dead Presidents (2012)

Deadpool The 10 Weirdest Comic Book Arcs

The Deadpool “Dead Presidents” story arc took place in Deadpool Vol. 5 #1-5 by Brian Posehn, Gerry Duggan, and Tony Moore. The story starts off with a former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent resurrecting every dead president, from the first in George Washington to the last who died at that time, Ronald Reagan.

These dead presidents returned, but they came back as zombies and tried to destroy America. Since Deadpool has plausible deniability—and is also a Canadian—he took it upon himself to rid the world of these presidential zombies.

6 Night of the Living Deadpool

Night of the Living Deadpool is a Deadpool zombie story by Cullen Bunn and Ramon Rosanas. Much like the movie it homages, Night of the Living Dead, the story is mostly in black and white, with only Deadpool in color.

This weird Deadpool story arc has him wake up from a food coma after an all-you-can-eat Chimichanga dinner to find himself in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. The twist is that the zombies could talk, and all wanted Deadpool to kill them while they tried to eat him—and he was the only hero left alive.

5 Deadpool The Duck

In 2017, Deadpool became Deadpool the Duck in a very weird story arc that took place in the main 616-universe. Created by Stuart Moore and Jacopo Camagni, the story started when S.H.I.E.L.D. recruited Deadpool, with Wolverine as his spirit animal in his head, to hunt down an alien in the Midwest. When he gets there, he meets up with Howard the Duck, and a rabid Rocket Raccoon attacks. When Rocket bites Deadpool’s teleporter, it malfunctions and combines Howard and Deadpool into Deadpool the Duck.

4 Deadpool’s Secret Secret Wars

The first Secret Wars series by Marvel was a game-changer, a crossover event series that not only threw all Marvel’s major characters into the event, but one that changed the characters moving forward. She-Hulk was in the Fantastic Four, The Thing was moved to an alien planet, Spider-Man had a new symbiote costume, and more.

Marvel never introduced Deadpool until seven years after Secret Wars, but, in Deadpool’s Secret Secret Wars, he claimed he was there with all the other characters, yet ended up written out of the original story. He also claimed the symbiote bonded to him before it ended up on Spider-Man. Deadpool and Spider-Man have a weird relationship, and he likely couldn’t resist inserting himself into the story.

3 King Of The Monsters

Deadpool’s most recent adventures had him take on a very different role. In Deadpool Vol. 8 #1 by Kelly Thompson and Chris Bachalo, someone hired Deadpool to kill the Monster King after he invaded Staten Island. He succeeded in his mission but had an unexpected side-effect. He became the new King of the Monsters in accordance with Monster Law. After this, Deadpool had to reconcile his feelings toward the monsters, and they had to accept him as their new ruler.

2 Deadpool Kills The Marvel Universe

Deadpool The 10 Weirdest Comic Book Arcs

In Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe, the story arc is exactly what the title indicates. Much like the similar story with Punisher, this 2012 series by Cullen Bunn and Dalibor Talajic had The X-Men taking Deadpool to a psychiatrist to cure him, but the psychiatrist was Psycho-Man. He eliminated all the voices in Deadpool’s head but one, and that one voice sent Deadpool to kill everyone.

This was an alternate world Deadpool, and it started the Deadpool Killogy. In 2017, Bunn and Talajic were back with Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe Again, and, this time, the story started like Logan, with Deadpool killing his allies believing they were villains.

1 The Deadpool Killogy

The Deadpool Killogy included Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe. However, it takes that idea and twists it to fit Deadpool’s world in a perfectly weird way. It wasn’t the 616-Deadpool that killed the Marvel Universe; it was another Deadpool from the multiverse. After killing the Marvel Universe, Deadpool set out to kill other literary characters, from Moby Dick and Ishmael to Tom Sawyer and Dracula.

That led to the last part of the trilogy where Deadpool and Dark Deadpool fought a war where every other Deadpool died, with the 616-Deadpool finally ending the threat when he revealed everyone’s life sucks and people need to get over it.
