When I first saw the thread, I said oh great. Someone went out and saw the new Wolverine flick and thought that Ryan Reynolds was "super kewl" as some guy from the comics. But then I saw the avatar, I saw the picture, I saw the tagline and it was awwwwwwsoem. I love Deadpool, he's got personality, he's his own guy, and he needs more mainstream pub. He was great in Hulk vs Wolverine, hilarious. I voted for other because Deadpool is frickin awesoem. Geez got me carried away there.
 
I liked Deadpool better over 10 years ago.

When you look at his costume and the fact he makes a lot of wisecracks isn't he sort of a villain-like ripoff of Spiderman?
 
Deadpool is the only reason I'm gonna see the new X-Men (and Gambit I guess). I hope hes got some good face time. I've been waiting to see him in movies for a few years. I hope to Cable in the future and I'm really hyped to see War Machine in the next Iron Man or Avengers.
 
Because the Legend Rob Liefeld created him. :hatsoff:

There are a lot of comic fans that hate Liefeld. I think Cable, Deadpool, and Domino are the only characters he ever had a hand in their creation that I have liked. Liefeld is also one of the biggest ripoff artist the comic world has ever seen. (Which now that I think about it might have something to do with the Deadpool's costume's similarity to Spiderman's costume.)

You don't like any of the Youngblood characters? That's a shame.

Greg Land has done his share of rip-offs/ homages.

Every company has used things from other companies.

Look at Marvel and DC and the similarities in their characters.
Marvel is worse they took the Malibu characters and put them on the shelf instead of making deals with their creators. Which they could do if they cared.
 
How about all of the above? But if I have to choose one then it's the fact that he's so freaking funny. None of the DC heroes can ever be better than Deadpool. If the movie about the Merc with the Mouth is done right expect a movie franchise that rivals Spider-Man. No joke.

I think part of the criticism of Liefeld is the fact he often makes characters so disproportioned and unlifelike even when he shouldn't. Things like weapons and guns were even worse, although he was from alone with that one. Way back when he was at his best some of his artwork was not that bad, and then there was some stuff that would make you cringe. It probably had a lot of young teenage fans in the 90s, but I bet as a lot of those people grew up and weren't replaced by as many adolescents the popularity of his artwork went down.

As far as ripoffs go Liefeld is notorious for doing it throughout his career more than almost anybody else. Some of them have been so blatant that it's been impossible rationalize it away other than just being a rip off. He has also been sued, successfully, because of it.

Some people didn't even like him in his heyday. I'm not big into the comic scene anymore, but from what I understand he is even a lot less liked today than he was in the 90s. Between the heavy use of other people's stuff and his inability to create an engaging storyline it makes me wonder if he's ever had a good original idea, ever. I don't know if he's ever done anything with a plot that was noteworthy, and his work once he went to Image was bad. The only things I think I can really give him credit for is his work in the creation of Cable and maybe to a lesser extent Deadpool, and even then others either had more of a hand in their creation that than was originally thought or other people had better stories or better artwork with those characters after he left, and maybe the fact he brought in some young people in the 90s with his work.
 
Bonsai! No! Wait! GINSU!!!
He Kills people, he likes killing people that really need it. Ya know that old saying well he just needed killin. Our Merc is the guy that does it.
Hes been a PITA to just about every major villian that has existed and done it while making us laugh our asses off.
3 cheers for Duct Tape!
Ryan Reynolds plays Wilson perfectly and he has gotten screwed with the edit of the movie that basicly cut out half his time and answered a lot of his Origin.
I hope we get to see the missing parts when Deadpool gets his own movie with Reynolds behind the mask.
 
Deadpool is awesome but he's actually a rip off a Deathstroke from DC comics.

Deadpool: Wade Wilson
Deathstroke: Slade Wilson

Even if hes a copy hes way better and so fucking hilarious.
