Deadpools Manga Has A Surprising My Hero Academia Crossover

The latest chapter of the new Deadpool manga that’s been running in Shonen Jump just dropped, and it features a surprising cameo. While this Deadpool: Samurai manga has been exceptionally popular, and it’s featured a number of cameos from other Marvel heroes, it’s only in the most recent chapter that Shonen Jump’s own heroes have gotten into the mix. And, of course, what better series to mix with Marvel than Jump’s own wildly popular superhero series My Hero Academia?

In the (rather absurd) context of the story, Deadpool and Sakura Spider attempt to do battle against Thanos, using everything from the Venom Symbiote to the Hulk to try to defeat him. Each fails, one after another, and as a last ditch effort, Deadpool attempts to call on Captain Marvel to help. Instead, he finds himself cradled by a very different savior. Fans of My Hero Academia immediately recognized the Detroit Smash used on Thanos as All Might’s signature move, and sure enough, the musclebound number one hero has come to Deadpool’s rescue, much to everyone’s surprise. Deadpool not only recognizes All Might, but claims to have fought alongside him several years ago, in the rather infamous “Toxic Chainsaw” incident which has never been depicted. All Might ends the chapter by delivering his famed catchphrase, “I am here!”

Making this crossover a little more special is the fact that this chapter of Deadpool: Samurai features a special guest artist: Kohei Horikoshi, the creator of My Hero Academia, here to draw All Might. Horikoshi has been very open about his affection for American comics, and Marvel in particular, so the opportunity to bring his own creation into a Marvel story was no doubt a dream come true. And, thanks to his major role in the films, Thanos makes for a recognizable and thoroughly enjoyable target even for the most casual of fans. Marvel also gets a boost from connecting with extremely popular Japanese properties, something for which this manga has quickly become known.

Before taking the time to figure out what this might mean for continuity, it’s worth pointing out that this chapter is dropping on April Fool’s Day, so it probably shouldn’t be regarded as anything more than a fun joke. And, after all, if there’s one thing Deadpool is known for, it’s breaking the fourth wall, so a fourth wall-straddling cameo is run of the mill for him. Still, there’s a chance that All Might may be around in the beginning of the next chapter now that the My Hero Academia hero has arrived.

Unfortunately, the Deadpool: Samurai manga doesn’t yet have an official English release. It is, however, available to read for free via Shonen Jump+, their online magazine, so for the moment Western fans will have to get their fill by flipping through the untranslated pages. New chapters of Deadpool: Samurai are released every other Thursday.
