Deadpool and Wolverine: Every Deadpool Corps Variant of Deadpool

Credit: Jay Maidment/20th Century StudiosHeads up: We'll be discussing some key plot spoilers for Deadpool & Wolverine in this article. Deadpool & Wolverine is the latest of a number of multiversal comic book movies and shows to pop up in recent years, and if Deadpool is crossing the multiverse, then it only makes sense for him to run into some of the many other versions of Deadpool that exist in the Marvel Comics stories, among the many cameos that this film has in store. It's an encounter that's been teased by the marketing, which has shown off Dogpool and Lady Deadpool, but there are plenty of others here as well.But these folks aren't together incidentally--they're the Deadpool Corps! What with Deadpool being essentially an in-universe parody of other Marvel heroes, it only makes sense that he would have his own sort of multiversal group like the Spider Society [link probably] that we saw in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Like the Spider Society, the Deadpool Corps consists of alternate versions of Deadpool that are frequently extremely different from the main one.With Spider-Verse being animated, they were able to get really wacky with it and choose extra zany spider-folks like Peter Parkedcar, who's literally a sentient car with spider powers. With Deadpool & Wolverine being a live-action film, by contrast, the ones we see here are all at least human. But they're certainly not all Ryan Reynolds.The Deadpool Corps were introduced in 2010, during a 12-issue storyline in which they're tasked with dealing with a cosmic entity from before the Big Bang called the Awareness. This entity absorbs the consciousness of anything it comes in contact with, and the Elders of the Universe, like the Grandmaster, are unable to stop it. But the Deadpool Corps--because they're so weird and unhinged--aren't affected by it, allowing them to get closer to it than anyone else in the multiverse. And just for fun, there's also a bad version of this group in the comics aptly called the Evil Deadpool Corps--which was founded by a pile of Deadpool's discarded body parts that fused together in a dumpster thanks to his regenerative healing factor.The Deadpool Corps of Deadpool & Wolverine don't have all that going on, though--like most everybody else from the Void, they just work for Cassandra. Which means our heroes have to fight them, making for a delightfully violent mess and a true highlight of the film.Now, let's go through the Deadpool Corps members we met in Deadpool & Wolverine. DogpoolIn the comics, this little guy was an animal test subject for a cosmetics company--until they tested a new, advanced kind of mascara on him that gave him his regenerative healing. Lady DeadpoolThis gender-swapped Deadpool is Wanda Wilson, and in the comics her chief nemesis is General America, a fascist version of Steve Rogers--but don't worry, she's just as annoying as the main one. In Deadpool & Wolverine she's voiced by Blake Lively, who's married to Ryan Reynolds. HeadpoolThis Deadpool comes from a universe with a zombie plague, which he was infected by before his body was destroyed. This adolescent version of Deadpool was raised at Professor X's orphanage as a child alongside the future X-Men. But even though he's a kid, he's still Wade Wilson--meaning he was extremely annoying and was always getting in fights because of it. And, just for fun, Kidpool wields a pair of lightsabers in the comics for some reason. New, original DeadpoolsAmong this mob of Deadpools are a few that have been invented for this movie. Specifically: Nicepool, Babypool, the Deadpool wearing a kilt, the Deadpool wearing a tricorn hat, and the Deadpool wearing the Welsh flag on his chest, which is presumably a reference to Wrexham FC, the Welsh soccer club that Ryan Reynolds co-owns.But the only one of these to get much play here is Nicepool--he's just a nice guy, but he ends up dying from a huge number of gunshot wounds because he's the only Deadpool without regenerative healing. Which makes you wonder how he became a Deadpool, but that's a question we could also ask about the baby. Cowboy DeadpoolWhile he's listed as "Cowboy Deadpool" in the credits, in the comics he's called The Deadpool Kid (presumably this was changed to differentiate him from Kidpool). After the main Deadpool shoots him in the head, The Deadpool Kid joins up with the Evil Deadpool Corps and becomes a baddie. In Deadpool & Wolverine, this Deadpool is voiced by Matthew McConaughey. ZenpoolThis mysterious and hooded version of Deadpool actually wasn't a variant in the comics, but rather a persona that Deadpool adopted after he was affected by an inversion spell cast by Wanda Maximoff that turned him into a pacifist--in the film, he fights only by shooting darts. The FoolThis Japanese Deadpool, named Watari, is a ronin who wears a conical sun hat. Deadpool 2099The very coolest of all the Deadpools is not a variant of Wade Wilson, but rather is his daughter, Warda Wilson, which he had with his ex-wife Shiklah, queen of the underworld.
