People had a lot to say about the Merc with a mouth! It’s with no small measure of pride that we present this double-sized Dev Diary.
Powers, Fusions, And Gameplay
Katie Orcutt, Junior Animator
We knew that Deadpool was a fan favorite, so we wanted to make sure his powers set the bar for being wicked cool and fun to play. We did a lot of research – reading his comics, looking up videos, and trying to determine what kind of fighter he is. Our main goal was to make him feel graceful and acrobatic, yet also very powerful. He’s pretty much a modern day ninja, so we had a lot of fun pushing the limits of what he could do.
Our first priority was to get some solid reference material. We looked up a bunch of different martial art videos using all sorts of unique weapons. Guns, swords, staffs, spears—you name it, we watched it.
Steve Vanseth, Animator
We wanted to make sure his animations stayed true to his character. Since he has such an arsenal of weapons at his disposal (grenades, swords, guns), I always tried to incorporate at least one of those weapons in the animations I was working on.
Jay Twining, Systems Designer
When putting together a new character, it’s always good to be mindful of the visual capabilities of the heroes we’re designing. We don’t make The Hulk shoot laser beams, we don’t animate Storm with weapons. Deadpool’s visuals are universally over-the-top; in a way, he’s like a clown who pulls out different props to get a laugh. Except in his case, he’s laying waste to everyone in his path.
Katie Orcutt
In addition to martial-arts inspired movement, we also found a few Parkour videos that were particularly useful (Parkour is an impressive way of traversing through an environment, quickly clearing obstacles and buildings as a way of rapidly moving from point A to point B. Look it up, it’s sweet!), so you’ll see that influence in many of his animations. After a few weeks, I felt like I was living vicariously through Deadpool – I’d walk through the parking lot and think, “I wonder if I could jump over this car…”
Justin Heisler, Fusion Designer
Deadpool was one of my favorite Marvel characters, so I wanted to spend extra attention on his Fusions. He has lots of choices when contributing to a Fusion move: He has swords, guns, grenades and even the ability to teleport! We use each of these elements at different times. In one fusion move, he charges with his fusion partner, slicing anything that comes in his way. In another he jumps into the air shooting a barrage of bullets knocking enemies out of the air.
Steve Vanseth
In terms of animations I’m most excited for people to see his fusions. I think everyone that worked on him enjoyed his fusions. He’s got a pretty cool one where he teleports onto a big rock chunk pulled up by The Hulk, sticks grenades to it, and then teleports back to the ground.
Also, knowing that he has a twisted sense of humor, I’d try to incorporate that into his animations, as best I could. I think the collect-and-blast fusion is a great example of that: he’s not satisfied with just hitting enemies with his grenades; he has to continue to shoot them out of the air as the grenades are exploding. I think that’s a good example of his twisted humor.
Jesse Sparhawk, Quality Assurance Tester
There was a Deadpool specific bug that came back to haunt us time and time again, but everyone agreed it seemed to fit Deadpool’s hilariously random and unexpected personality. Basically, using Deadpool’s “Bullet Barrage” move, players were able to attack their own teammates. Though annoying at times, this was definitely good for a laugh the first few times it occurred.
Jay Twining
From a pure gameplay standpoint, when designing how any character plays, we start with a basic set of questions:
1. What are their strengths?
2. How do they fight in the comics?
3. How do we want them to ‘play?’
That last question is the most important when it comes down to the feel of the character. In Deadpool’s case, it’s not a reach-out-and-touch-you “feel.” More like, teleport-across-the-screen-dropping grenades-everywhere-slashing-with-wild-abandon-causing-general-mayhem “feel.” We were all on board with what we wanted Deadpool to do. In fact, it was one of the simplest mandates of all the characters: ‘Make Deadpool kick butt.’
As for #1 and #2, Deadpool’s an interesting character: even though he’s sort of a showboat, his powers aren’t actually that flashy. He makes the most with a highly mixed bag: Guns, swords, teleporting, regenerating… What else does a guy need? We made him a versatile fighter with an interesting combination of ranged attacks and distance-closing capabilities. As far as his combat role is concerned, Deadpool’s at his best when he’s in the thick of things, bringing on the pain. He’s not the kind of guy to sit back and take you out from afar.
Visual Design
David Phillips, Concept Artist
For the costume, our main source of inspiration was the Cable & Deadpool: Civil War arc. We also looked at his costume over the years to examine the overall themes to his look. Like Spider-Man, Deadpool has an extremely iconic appearance that carries over all his costumes over the years. So, it was important for us to maintain that while assimilating him into the “real world” look of our game.
Regarding the overall design: Deadpool is one of those characters people would kill for. He’s always among the top picks when we ask fans who they want to see in the game.
So, when approaching his design, we wanted to stay true to what the fans appreciate in his look. At the same time, no one wants to see the exact same costume over and over, and since we’re trying to give fans something new, “porting” character designs is not something we like to do. Which leads us to the great thing about the comic medium: every comic artist draws a hero differently. They all add their small flourishes to an ever evolving icon; we’re doing that as well.
We approach our characters designs in this spirit: “Stay true to the source, but make it fresh.” This makes the first order of business identifying what makes a character unique. For Deadpool, the mask is king. For this reason, we stuck closely to the classic design and only added material and construction details.
One thing we always do when we’re trying to translate something from comic to game is ask, “What is it made of? What does it do?” This led to the bigger tweaks happening from the neck down. Deadpool’s cuffs and collar are a good example. While they look cool for comics, they don’t seem to serve much purpose other than cutting off his circulation. What I attempted to do design-wise was to maintain the visual placement but make them feel like part of his costume. The end result is that his gloves actually fasten to the sleeves of his jumpsuit, his collar is a part of the suit, and the ankle cuffs were swapped out with styled combat boots.
For video games, especially ones with lots of characters on screen, it’s important to be able to pick your guy out of a crowd. I try to limit the palette to what is iconic for the character and eliminate colors that break away from that theme. To this end, we adjusted the palette and design of his belts and straps to tie in visually with his teleportation device and I changed his swords from brown to red and black.
In addition, we often have to massage elements, taking them from a retro comic look to something more modern. Classically, Deadpool’s belt repeats his mask design verbatim, but since we wanted a grittier, more realistic style for our game, I felt it looked too “retro comic hero”. Therefore, we did small things like change the eyes on the belt to buttons, while keeping the overall design and color placement. My goal is always to have the character recognizable at first glance for branding and game play reasons, but upon further examination, there should be functional construction and fresh details that give people something new to enjoy. I hope the hardcore fans will love this new take and forgive me for any liberties I took. If not, all hate mail can be sent to my art director, Bryan Shutt.

they were my FAVS in mau1.
WAHHHHH!!!!!!
Posted by: BartonIsHawkeye88 on 05/14/09
WOW. that is awesome work
Posted by: Rusty_26 on 05/26/09
Its okay
Posted by: Deadpoolfan1 on 06/06/09
It’s not as cool as the old look, but it’ll do… for now.
Posted by: APoorLittleSeal on 06/23/09
I have to agree. Old Deadpool with this much detail would fucking own.
Posted by: BartonIsHawkeye88 on 05/14/09
I am really impressed
Posted by: tamerdp on 07/17/09
they ruined deadpool in x-men origins
Posted by: thecomichero on 07/30/09
i agree, wtf sew his mouth shut?
Posted by: deadpool4pres on 08/23/09
totally i mean the merc with no mouth is fucked up
Posted by: Minas Morgul on 09/09/09
the merc WITHOUT a mouth...=) not a great work… this game deadpool is great instead! I saw him in the demo and the dialogue was great! He is my favourite marvel super-hero! CHIMICHANGACHIMICHANGACHIMICHANGA
Posted by: ScottwalkerJr on 09/14/09
thy did to jus piss ppl off to take his main feture and take it away is gonna get alot of attention
Posted by: WEAPON VI on 08/27/09
yep, but they probably will do better in the deadpool movie they are making
Posted by: Deadpool105 on 10/02/09
At the very end he is moving under rocks and he reaches for his head. But, his mouth is opened and he goes “Shhhhhh!” Then the movie ends
Posted by: Gentleman Jack on 05/14/09
Absolutely fantastic work. I can’t wait to get my hands on this game!
On a related note: how cool was the Ryan Reynolds scene in WOLVERINE ORIGINS? That bit where he goes tearing through the room and then says “Okay ... people are dead,” just killed me. Deadpool is the man.
(Now somebody find Joe Kelly and make him write more DP comics.)
Posted by: blake101 on 05/14/09
Soooo predictable I want to vomit.
Posted by: Boy Banshee on 05/14/09
Im not a fan :S
Posted by: matthood5 on 05/14/09
Im not a huge Deadpool fan either, but thanks for the new blog.
Posted by: Rusty_26 on 05/26/09
Good, for expressing your true feelings
Posted by: APoorLittleSeal on 06/23/09
How can you not be a fan? Did you play him in MUA 1? It was one of the most fun experiences in the game. Plus you could build him up to be unstoppable.
Posted by: Boy Banshee on 05/14/09
But thank you for the dev blog, and showing us a new map.
Posted by: ForgottenOne on 05/14/09
Hey boy banshee, what new map did they show?
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/17/09
I think he means the level in the backgroundd of Deadpools first pic
Posted by: FroBoy11 on 05/14/09
Pretty cool.
Posted by: Lanowar on 05/14/09
A very fascinating read and I look forward to more of its kind. I have to say it’s interesting how you looked at the source material and then debated the science of the character before designing a costume that fuses the classic look with practicality.
I can only hope this train of thought was used in the creation of his bonus costumes as well. Well done to everyone involved and if I could I’d e-mail this to Bryan Shutt personally!
Posted by: Sivian on 05/14/09
One of my favorite characters from the first game and a great read
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/17/09
Yeah samee, he was cool in MUA1
Posted by: Rusty_26 on 05/26/09
he was okay
Posted by: Deadpoolfan1 on 06/06/09
I have to agree with SpideyWolvie here
Posted by: Prydonian on 05/14/09
Hasn’t the world had more than enough of applying “gritty” and “real-world” aesthetics to comic characters? It’s completely antithetical to whole point of comic book heroes in the first place…
I mean, it’s great design work on its own merits, no question. But it even defeats itself… that little tab of fabric on the back of Deadpool’s mask is supposed to be there because it’s an ill-fitting, badly-made mask, because Wade is crazy, made it himself, and doesn’t care. So this design standpoint adds seams to the mask… where, of course, if it HAD seams there, the darn thing would fit and it wouldn’t have that little flap! Yeek.
Posted by: Hawkeye on 05/15/09
I agree. I don’t want to see Clint Barton (if he’s in) as Ronin because the classic purple/blue Hawkeye costumes aren’t realistic enough for a comic book video game. When you’ve got Gods and characters shooting beams from their eyes while their wife returns from the dead for umpteenth time the constraint of realism is thrown out the window.
Posted by: Prydonian on 05/14/09
Then again, these guys obviously care a lot about the source material, so if the unlockable costumes are the classic ones with nothing added but material texture, I’ll be as happy as can be.
Posted by: Boy Banshee on 05/14/09
Yes, I would really appreciate it if classic costumes were not grittified, I like them the way they are.
Posted by: Boy Banshee on 05/14/09
Nothing wrong with a little ‘retro comic hero’ here and there, I say!
Posted by: Rusty_26 on 05/26/09
Banshee you are a gem amound rocks I 1000 agree with you
Posted by: The Might Thor on 07/15/09
Amound rocks?
What the H does that mean?
Posted by: Captain America 09 on 05/19/09
I agree. The new costumes are nice and cool. But I like to kick butt as Cap in his WW2 outfit along with other “retro” outfits. This game is looking AWESOME! My friends and I are so excited to play it. Oh, and for all you Pro-Registration punks out there. I’m coming for you!
Posted by: odisblue on 08/05/09
YEEAH!! rebels for the winnn.
Posted by: raideroutlaws on 05/14/09
nice pics
Posted by: The White Knight on 05/14/09
I am very exited about Deadpool being in this game!
Posted by: Deelan on 05/14/09
i was not looking forward to deadpool.. he was on my NO list.. but, he does seem really cool now. plus he looks awesome! is that second pic a fusion with jean? ; ] lol.
Posted by: Destoyer on 05/18/09
F**K YOU
Posted by: Proudomybeef on 05/20/09
Lol.
Posted by: Symbiote Spiderman on 05/20/09
People love him and hate him :/ But He’s a very good read and a big relief to the more serious comics for me ( not like they’re bad) but yeah i agree he does look really shvveeet bro.
Posted by: iron24 on 05/30/09
I’m not a big Deadpool fan either but after watching the trailer he looks like he will be a lot of fun to play and his verbal interactions in MUA were hilarious.
Posted by: Captain Spidey on 05/30/09
Actually, MUA introduced me to Deadpool and now, years later, I am much more educated in his characteristics and am looking forward to him redeeming his name after Wolverine!
Posted by: beastfromtheeast on 05/14/09
Deadpool looks pretty sweet, but where’s Cable? :(
Posted by: phoenix212 on 05/14/09
not one of my favourites
but he does look cool and I agree where is Cable
Posted by: the_mediator on 05/18/09
Cable was in the trailer, and he did play a role in the Civil War arc on the anit-reg faction. He’s bound to show up soon, don’t worry.
It’s good to see Activision looking back at the comics so they know how to effectively design how each character looks and plays. Good to see Deadpool again in the sequel.
Posted by: Jarvgrimr on 05/14/09
You’ve all done a great job! A quality re-tooling of the Poolster with a nice amount of realism and change in it. 2 thumbs up from the DeadPool fan!
Posted by: Danny Rand on 05/14/09
Oh man! This lokks SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COOL!!!! It looks like a movie lol!!!
Posted by: The Might Thor on 07/15/09
Yeah man, the graphics are a big step up.
I just saw a MUA1 vs MUA2 Daredevil side-by-side… the realistic and detail work just blows everything out of the water
Posted by: John_Candys_Liver on 05/14/09
Fantastic job. Really impressed and happy to hear you guys really worked hard on making Deadpool awesome to play, parkour, sticking grenades to rocks, I like it. I like it a lot.
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/14/09
Yeah sticking te grenades to rocks that Hulk throws sounded awesome!! he’s gonna be class
Posted by: Danny Rand on 05/14/09
Hey! His guns aren’t personalize! you forgot that!

Posted by: Superdude602 on 05/14/09
Im not a fan of Deadpool...but I have to say, he looks pretty BAD A**. Maybe I’ll even give him a shot(the second time I play).
Hopefully you guys do just as good of a job with Jean!!!
Posted by: divinechampion on 05/14/09
OMG......it’s DEAD POOL.... Finally lol,Looking good,hope he plays good too
Posted by: Proudomybeef on 05/22/09
How’s he gonna hold his chimichangas with that few pouches?
Posted by: Jadryx on 06/01/09
He’ll just have to eat them faster!
Posted by: weaponx05 on 05/14/09
Deadpool looks freakin sick! I can’t wait to shoot people! Or blow them up, or cut up people…
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/14/09
Awesome!! thanks!
Posted by: DarkAvengersRock on 05/14/09
Having recently seen the Wolverine: Origins Movie, I was very excited about Deadpool making a return appearance in MUA2. It’s a no-brainer! But, as your Dev Diary suggests, you all put a lot of brains, flying bullets and exploding grenades into this character. I’m especially intrigued by his Parkour move set. That sounds just like him. I can’t wait to hear all of his quips and snarky comments throughout the game. Awesome Job, everyone!
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/14/09
Is Parkour like freestyle stuff? Sounds cool!
Posted by: John_Candys_Liver on 05/14/09
Parkour is freerunning. It started as kind of an acrobatic street art in Europe. Think the first foot chase scene in 007:Casino Royale (You know, the freaking awesome one early in the movie) or the game “Mirrors Edge”. Thats Parkour.
Posted by: Wolverine Rules on 05/14/09
Awesome guys! you have did a kickass job on Deadpool! he is always one of my first picks on my teams in MUA1 and will still be in MUA2
Posted by: Wonderman on 05/14/09
Deadpool looks awesome, can’t wait to play as him
Posted by: Howlingatthemoon on 05/14/09
I...hate..loathe...despise...Deadpool!! Ugggh...soooooo disappointed in this reveal!!
Posted by: hellrazerhd on 05/14/09
Taskmaster is that you? Anyways, give me a bubba cola and smack me silly, he looks slick, he looks happening, he looks.....like leather. I mean how can you breathe in that mask? It like putting a biker jacket over your head and trying to beathe in the fumes. Then again it looks more like a pizza jacket the delivery boy uses. Ladies and gentlemen, IT’S PIZZAPOOL!!
Posted by: young avenger 9 on 06/10/09
YOU ARE A S**T HEAD MAN WHO DOES NOT LIKE DEADPOOL!
Posted by: Destoyer on 05/18/09
F*** YOU DeadpooL is awesome
Posted by: CF Barton on 05/14/09
I would love to see a dev diary similar to this for each character reveal. It wouldn’t have to be quite as long, and it wouldn’t have to give quite as much away, but I liked hearing all the different takes on Deadpool’s nuances.
Great job guys!
Posted by: Hawkeye on 05/15/09
Ditto. I’d love to have some in-depth information on all the characters.
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/14/09
His guns look much more realistic in this one aswell, actually look like pistols
Posted by: john317 on 05/14/09
He looks much improved over MUA1, loving the details in all the new models, thanks.
Posted by: Deadpool28 on 05/14/09
Love Deadpool...simply awesome!! But while reading his profile on the characters section its mention that he will probably join Capt side but correct me if I am wrong..shouldnt Deadpool be on the Pro Reg side??? Even though we get to choose in gameplay but stil...it juz sound wrong ... Its mentioned in Cable and Deadpool comics… even the marvel website on Civil War story arc has categorize him in the Pro Reg… Wats with that?? Lets stick to the story shall we?? I mean lets not be stupid like wat they did in X-men Origins where they combine Wade and Weapon XI as a character which in marvel comics are totally DIFF!!! Anyway, Im still grateful the crew in adding Deadpool!! Thanx..hope u change the profile section....
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/14/09
If you click on the pro and anti tabs, it gives you reasons why they would join the sides
Posted by: Deadpool28 on 05/14/09
Ahhh...I see, my apologies… thanx SpideyWolvie, but Im still against the fact they combine Weapon XI and Deadpool..
Posted by: Deadpool vs Wolverine on 05/24/09
Dude, i’m preety sure they are the same. One of the main reasons he weres is costume, is to hide the scars styryker left him. But i’m not certain. i just heard of it somewhere on marvel.com
Posted by: CF Barton on 05/14/09
You’ve gotta be new, my friend. Its pretty obvious if you look around that they can’t strictly follow the Civil War storyline. If they did you wouldn’t have Hulk, most of the X-Men, Matt Murdock, and a few others as playables.
I’m all for staying as faithful to the source material as possible, however they are going to have to make some adjustments here and there. Four characters are locked. I wouldn’t want to limit game-play by locking everyone into their respective “side” in the War.
Posted by: Deadpool vs Wolverine on 05/24/09
On the home page u will see captain american and cage at the very right in what looks like a car garage. when the light goes on at the very left of the garage you will see a guy in a red costume. this could just be me, but it looks like deadpool?
Posted by: DeadpoolFan23 on 07/22/09
u got it all wrong deadpool is the 1 shooting the guy 2 the left of that. that 1 u thought was deadpool was actually dare devil
Posted by: Boy Banshee on 05/14/09

Posted by: Rusty_26 on 05/14/09
Interesting, Seems he is going to be extra cool this time. Granted I would have liked a newer character but DP is cool
Posted by: nightcrawler91 on 05/14/09
INTENSE!
Posted by: Shiper on 05/14/09
Deadpool super, thanks of administration for it, and still please make The Punisher the game character
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/17/09
Really hope Punisher is among the June reveal
Posted by: Dagger_4Prez on 05/14/09
NOt my first choice, but I’m glad you guys did a great job on him
maybe next month you can give us Hawkeye to make up for Juggernaut
Posted by: Hawkeye on 05/15/09
I approve of this idea.
Posted by: Proudomybeef on 05/20/09
Y’know, I love Deadpool and Juggs more than most characters. But I approve this message.
Plus Hawkeye and Deadpool’d have a pretty sweet fusion.

i’m not the biggest fan of deadpool but i’m glad to see he made the roster now for venom.....
Posted by: blaze on 05/14/09
really like the fact that deadpool was added
p.s the screen shots look amazing
Posted by: UltimateDeadpool on 05/14/09
I absolutely love it! Much needed, realistic flair to the simple comic-book costume! I only have one tony complaint though, the black patches around his eyes are too small. Patrick Zircher started drawing them small and I hated that.
Posted by: Polish Xtremist on 05/14/09
You did a really good job, looks great, cant wait to play
Posted by: m3cHz95 on 05/14/09
My main character from MUA1 Returns! Saweeeeeet!!!!!
Posted by: iron24 on 05/14/09
It is incredible to get such detail on what went into the character and it sounds like Deadpool will be a lot of fun to play.
Can we please get a developer write up of each character in the character area as well. Having these reveals is fantastic but what about the characters who were already revealed? When do they get their own developer blog?
Posted by: drtruffle on 05/14/09
Good idea. I guess once the game is further along and the writers and devs aren’t so busy they can do this
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/14/09
Cool would like to see wolvie’s and thors
Posted by: Proudomybeef on 05/20/09
Have you become a fan of Deadpool now iron?
Posted by: iron24 on 05/30/09
Not a fan but I am liking his playability more and more as he looks very cool in the trailer, that jump spin maching gun move was awesome.
Posted by: Naxohh on 05/14/09
wow! Deadpool is a good work guys!
Posted by: master cheif on 05/14/09
YES!!!!!! but now we just need cable and i will but so flipin happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH YEAH!!! i am the 75 person to comment on this booyaa!!!
Posted by: Enti_Ty on 05/14/09
this is (and i no im gettin killed for this but here it goes)
a wasted reveal
not a wasted character but reveal
this is one of the characters that everyone was almost positive was in the game
with that said i love the deadpool character and the art that’s been posted
Posted by: Captain Spidey on 05/27/09
Talk about wasted reveals… We’re still waiting for Gobby and Venom…
Posted by: Deadpool4life on 05/14/09
I as a hardcore deadpool fan have something to say
you guys rock and only an idiot would sent hete mail to people who did such a fantastich job on deadpool bless your souls
Posted by: lobo_mr on 05/14/09
Good idea to left the Deadpool bug , the “Bullet Barrage” move, lol
, you should add some dialogues that the teammates say when they’re hitted bay Deadpool’s bullets.
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/14/09
Yeah, would be awesome if you shoot hulk and he gets soo mad he gets massive
or Wolvie goes on a rampage
Posted by: Danny Darko on 05/14/09
Thanks for another great diary and i can’t wait to try Deadpool out. Oh and i hope Bryan doesn’t get any of that hate mail
Posted by: Justinpyro on 05/14/09

Posted by: Modren44 on 05/14/09
Very glad to see Wade Wilson finally revealed!
He was an integral part of my ‘New Weapon X’ team in MUA1 (Nightcrawler/Sabretooth/Wolverine/Deadpool).
He had the most awesome special move as well. Hope his fusions live up to MERC’S REVENGE!
He looks great! Excellent work, guys. =)
Any word on his voice actor yet? Is John Kassir going to reprise his role?
Posted by: Madman1979 on 05/14/09

thank you for all guys and thak you for deadpool
Posted by: Bulldawg on 05/14/09
great reveal in Deadpool, awesome shots of the Merc with a Mouth
my only one hope now is that somehow both Cable and the Punisher still make it into the game
Posted by: Roboonski on 05/14/09
Great Work looks amazing keep it up and let me plaY!!!
Posted by: Neverfate on 05/14/09
Now, let’s just hope they get Nolan North (Deadpool from Hulk vs Wolverine animation) to do his voice.
Posted by: SpideyRulez on 05/15/09
Finally, Deadpool is A Playable Character is in the game. I hope that he gets a good voice actor.
The Best voice actors for Deadpool are:
1. John Kassir( Voiced Deadpool in Marvel Ultimate Alliance.)
2. Nolan North( Voiced Deadpool in Hulk Vs.)
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/15/09
Yeah hopefully one of those 2 are used for his voice
Posted by: Hawkeye on 05/15/09
Very detailed and interesting blog. Thanks for all the effort, VV.
Posted by: Rinswind on 05/15/09
Nice blog, and I love the Deadpool costume! Fantastic work =) Also love the fact that the artist made it his own, and gave it the more gritty, modern, realistic look to him. Can’t wait to play! =D
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/17/09
Yeah same,costume looks cool
Posted by: Leoweb on 05/15/09
AWSOME!!!!!

Posted by: imchrisru on 05/15/09
Best news I heard yet! Deadpool’s the best, I’m glad he’s finally getting the attention he deserves after all these years.
Posted by: Cactus_Zack on 05/15/09
This is how he should of been in the
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/15/09
Not seen the movie yet, but it sounds like deadpools not great in it :(
Posted by: WOLVERINEUNCAGED on 05/15/09
Not too big of a fan but this still looks sweet!
awesome job guys!
Posted by: bobbyblast7 on 05/15/09
he was my favorite character for the game along with ronin but he is my fav so thanks guys.
Posted by: SUPERHERO on 05/15/09
i never use this word but...AWESOME!!!
Posted by: fluid on 05/15/09
Thank God Deadpool was brought into this game.
I am hoping to hear some “witty” banter between Deadpool and other characters throughout the game as well.
Because it’s not Deadpool unless he’s singing/talking non-stop/hitting on the females or anything like that.
Posted by: John_Candys_Liver on 05/15/09
I acn’t wait to play as him
Posted by: Bluntskull on 05/15/09
Deadpool is a character on my “To Read” list. Currently going through Uncanny. at 130 now. I’m blown away. I’m a growing fan of DP. You said it right, getting the look for him is definitely crucial. I think it’s absolutely wonderful. I’ve already set the screen of Deadpool shooting the guy in the air as my wallpaper. I can’t wait to play.
Posted by: Nexus on 05/15/09
I am looking forward to seeing his fusions.
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/15/09
Yeah same, specially the one with Hulk
Posted by: super soares on 05/15/09

Posted by: Ninjaserrano89 on 05/16/09
I am a Huge Deadpool Fan he looks amazing and his fusion and other attacks sound like they really portray his style. It sounds like the Merc With a mouth will be done some justice unlike the Wolverine movie (which was still good).
Posted by: CLASSICWERT on 05/16/09
Yes,thats what I wanted to hear
Posted by: ironspidey16 on 05/16/09
It’s about time!!!!
Posted by: Songboy on 05/16/09
Alright! Deadpool is playable!
Posted by: Francis on 05/16/09
That is great guys. Deadpool should be an interesting partner with Wolverine in the game
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/17/09
Yeahuntil Deadpool shoots him

AWESOME!Deadpool and Warmachine were and will always be my fvorite superheros
Posted by: Kevin Shepherd on 05/17/09
why are his eyes(the black part) so small?that makes him kinda undeadpoolish. they should make the boots red with a little black
Posted by: deadpool91 on 05/17/09
Deadpool is the best character and his humor rocks lol awesome costume looks great only character in the old game i found worth playing other then hawkeye and nightcrawler and of the three hes the best
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/17/09
Yeah he was nearly always in my MUA1 team
Posted by: brian on 05/17/09
He looks great
Posted by: Adamantiumman2917 on 05/17/09
The game looks and sounds great. The PS2 version better be as good as the first one.
Posted by: jackolantern on 05/17/09
I knew he would come back. Deadpool is just way too bada** to cut
Posted by: Francis on 05/17/09
Now it will be really great if we can tag team in a fusion Cable with Deadpool
Posted by: Fulminis on 05/17/09
It looks awesome!!! Deadpool is my favorite character in MUA. The Parkour is excellent.
Posted by: Weapon XI on 05/18/09
Deadpool is my fav character in anything
Posted by: SilverQuake on 05/17/09
it would b a good combination with; DEADPOOL,WOLVERINE,CABLE, AND MAYBE CYCLOPS
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/31/09
Sounds good
Posted by: Guitarnerd on 05/17/09
Simply cannot wait
Posted by: blakpantha on 05/17/09
hate the boots...yuk..the boots don’t look all that agile for such an agile character, i would think the lighter he is the better...not weighted down with the teleport bandollier..if that’s what it is.....hopefully he has his classic outfit too...everything else looks pretty good...i love his unpredictable crazy character and unlike x-men origins: wolverine...the hulk vs wolverine did his character so right and so perfectly flawless, even though he didn’t have a huge part in it. If anybody hasn’t checked out hulk vs thor and wolverine...you’re missing a real treat. For that matter off the subject a little...wonder woman was amazing too..now..if we just had cable playable then we would have two comic duos in mua 2! luke cage and iron fist with cable and deadpool? that would be unstoppable!..running long but last but not least.. i leave you with the immortal words of the merc with a mouth..............
“hey wolverine.....i shot youuuuuu!”
peace my fellow marvel zombies!
Posted by: Deadpool vs Wolverine on 05/24/09
I saw hulk vs and you are right, deadpool didn’t have the same crazy personality in X-men origins:Wolverine, but in Hulk vs pulled it off
Posted by: cecoman on 05/17/09
awsome
Posted by: Deadpool VII on 05/17/09
TOTALLY agree with blackpantha! I’m a HUGE deadpool fan, and the boots look TERRIBLE! I don’t really mind the rest of the outfit, but the boots should be fixed. It just looks clunky. PLEASE include the temporary X-Men outfit that Deadpool had in Cable & Deadpool #9 (the black costume with orange accents)! That costume was SO sick! Also, Cable is a MUST. I would play throughout the game with just Wade and Nathan FTW!
BTW, for all of you going to Comic-Con, I always go as Deadpool for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, so keep your eyes peeled!
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/18/09
Yeah, really hope Cable is in, would be a good team up
Posted by: Spirit of Vengeance on 05/17/09
This is awesome. You guys did a great job on Deadpool. He’s always been one of my favorites and he was translated from the comic to the game very well.
Posted by: Proudomybeef on 05/17/09
Deadpool looks pretty.
Posted by: Wade_Wilsons_Tailor on 05/17/09
That is simply amazing. You guys even gave him his chest harness and everything, I f$#%in love it. I had to do the costume cheat in the first MUA cause I wanted to play as him in his modern kill-suit, lol didn’t know it would f#$% up my ability to get achievements though. Only thing that looks weird are the black boots, but it’s not that serious, he still looks really f$#%in cool. And I hope you can upgrade his guns to his MP7’s he had in the first MUA, that would be nice.
Posted by: Proudomybeef on 05/18/09
Maybe his pistols just have auto fire like those ones in the Devil May Cry series. Because that’d be sweet.
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/31/09
That would be pretty awesome
Posted by: Weapon XI on 05/18/09
Awesomeee xD
Posted by: Weapon XI on 05/18/09
can i please know the release date
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/18/09
Think its around September
Posted by: Destoyer on 05/18/09
Deadpool is Awesom but i hope Punisher is among the June reveal
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/18/09
Yeah same that would be great
Posted by: Thanos on 05/18/09
He looks awesome. Glad he’s in. You can really see these guys love him.. i mean, look at all the pics lol.
Posted by: ANNIHILATOR 42 on 05/18/09
I can’t believe it he is the single character that I wanted to be in MUA 2 and he is! I think you have done a great job and hr looks like a cool modern day ninja ! I can’t wait to play as him, his abilities look so cool! Thanks!
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/18/09
Yeah he will be awesome!
Posted by: Rusty_26 on 05/26/09
He will be cool

Posted by: Destoyer on 05/26/09

Posted by: Deadpool007 on 05/18/09
Yeah he will be great to play… I can’t wait!!!!!!
Posted by: razer on 05/18/09
Dude i cant wait to play as him!!
Posted by: elephantwoman123 on 05/18/09
his fusions are gonna b sick with the teleporting and the guns and the swords
and a fusion with hulk could be he says something stupid so the hulk gets mad and goes crazy
Posted by: deadpool18 on 05/18/09
WOW when I first look at the character list before DP was added I was sooo pissed but now im very very happy
Posted by: Dlark17 on 05/18/09
ALRIGHT! And may I add, DARN does he look sexy blowin s**t up! lol
Love the bit about Hulk with lasers. Reminds me of a recent movie-based mishap…
Hurm....
Posted by: IrishRoulette on 05/18/09
Effing amazing!!!! Love Deadpool! Can’t wait!!!
Posted by: kraygen on 05/19/09
Holy fricking banana’s you most amazing game makers. thank you so much for making such an awesome character so awesome in this game. you rock.
Posted by: TheSaint on 05/19/09
I am a HUGE fan of Deadpool and a subscriber to his books, but I don’t like this version of his costume. That was one of my biggest complaints about his civil war run and the cable and deadpool run. I think that they should just do the classic duds. They look cooler and are more true to the material. I hate it when people take a “fresh” take on something,k basicaly saying we didn’t like the way it was done we thought it would look better this way. I love the fact that he is in the game though. If I had to point to a specific comic and say that is how he is suppost to look” I would say anything that UNDON studios did, mostly the “Healing Factor” series.
Posted by: JD_22 on 05/19/09
he looks great, i would love to see this kind of look as his costume in the new deadpool film coming out in a couple years.
Posted by: Hulk003 on 05/19/09

Posted by: kirwin on 05/19/09
cool, deadpool looks awesome he was always one of my favorite characters
Posted by: RevantSeven on 05/19/09
I’ve always been a hardcore deadpool fan, but I just didn’t like him in Marvel Alliance. But from what I’m hearing, it seems he’s been tweeked for the better, which is good.
True on him just not being flashy, can’t do much on that, just gotta use him as demolition and as a shooter.
Posted by: The Man of Cardboard on 05/20/09
Oh...my...god…
I just saw the video for Deadpool and…
Well, I’ve always been a huge fan of him but now I don’t think he’ll ever leave my team!
Posted by: GENERALSHABBY on 05/20/09
are we going to find out what happened to deadpool after the x-men origins
Posted by: Proudomybeef on 05/20/09
Well....they ARE making a Deadpool movie. And well...there WAS that scene after the credits.

Posted by: jackbonn001 on 05/21/09
oh yes 9i agree but i think he is evne more amazing in heroes lol XD
Posted by: Hybrid on 05/21/09
Sylar was one of the best characters in heroes. wait… we’re meant to be talking about deadpool!
Posted by: jackbonn001 on 05/21/09
was and still is hybird dont diss even though hes nathen dosent mean that saylar has gone forever!!!!
Posted by: killswitch on 05/21/09
thats right
Posted by: jackbonn001 on 05/21/09
oh yea i know he kicks ass and i think that he will come back
Posted by: Hybrid on 05/21/09
Good point.
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/21/09
i was looking over some of the old screenshots for this game and in one of them i noticed Bishop in the back and another one with Sabretooth in the back
Posted by: jackbonn001 on 05/21/09
dose that mean that they are going to be playable charcters
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/21/09
i think so
Posted by: jackbonn001 on 05/21/09
oh cool playing as sabretooth would be amazing in the new game
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/21/09
and if they have Bishop they might have Forge
Posted by: blakpantha on 05/22/09
sorry nobody wants forge as playable…
Posted by: jackbonn001 on 05/21/09
oh i hope so
Posted by: gonz2472 on 05/22/09
sabretooth would be awesome!!!
Posted by: Proudomybeef on 05/22/09
Meh. He can be a DLC for all I care. He was decent in the first but not good enough to return as initial in my opinion.
Posted by: jackbonn001 on 05/22/09
how dare you sabretooth is amazing and there would be an awsome conversation between wolvarene and sabretooth
Posted by: Proudomybeef on 05/22/09
Well, as far as characters go, yes. He is amazing. But as far as initial playables...there’s only a few spots left and Sabertooth’d play really similar to wolverine I’d imagine and there’s other characters that’ll make the cut before him.
Posted by: jackbonn001 on 05/23/09
u have redemed yourself lol
Posted by: killswitch on 05/24/09
i think your right because of the movie you know that some think will happen with them.
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/24/09
i was pissed when the messed up and killed off Deadpool in X-Men Origens
Posted by: Rusty_26 on 05/26/09
Not quite
Posted by: Wolverine 87 on 05/22/09
Deadpool’s involvement with the project makes me want more the game to make it to PC.
Posted by: DarkAvengersRock on 05/23/09
His video clips look good. I’m getting pumped to see this game already!!
Posted by: Jadryx on 06/01/09
The videos just make me want to play him more (he was a regular on my team in MUA1 so now he is definitely automatic for first playthrough)
Posted by: Cobalt Cobra on 05/23/09
Deadpool looks amazing! I can’t wait to play with him and I have already Preordered!
Posted by: IndyX on 05/23/09
Badass! I cannot wait
Posted by: Deadpool vs Wolverine on 05/23/09
This is great, Deadpool is one of my favorite mutants. Does anyone now what Wolverines and Deadpools fusion attack is.
Posted by: gonz2472 on 05/24/09
TECHNICALLY, deadpool’s no mutant. Just superhuman. But now im just goin all dork on ya :-p
Posted by: Deadpool vs Wolverine on 05/24/09
Whatever, he is Weapon 11, he can teleport with that suit, and has a healing factor. close enough for me and if not then Wolverine
Posted by: DEADPOOL38 on 05/24/09
wat is that on deadpool’s chest?
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/24/09
i think it’s supposed to resemble Cable’s chest plate
Posted by: Deadpool vs Wolverine on 05/24/09
Isn’t the teleporting devise?
Posted by: Steave on 05/24/09
Teleporting device was traditionally on his belt. The device on his chest was specifically for dimension hopping to track down a missing Cable.
Posted by: Deadpool vs Wolverine on 05/25/09
Cool, good to know
Posted by: Steave on 05/24/09
I’ve found it hard to play as anyone but Deadpool since finishing X-Men Legends II for the first time. Now if they include Nightcrawler as a playable character my wife will be happy. Freaking X-Box only download in Ultimate Alliance 1.
I’ve gotta say that I love the character design except for the chest plate. Forgive me for asking but wasn’t it only used for the dimension hopping issues of Cable/Deadpool.
Posted by: tamerdp on 07/17/09
pleas dont think of that as deadpool. just see him in the games and comics thats the real deadpool .. not that shitty movie one
Posted by: Helllion on 05/24/09
i wasnt a fan of deadpool til the wolverine film.
then there was the elevator scene.
i cant wait for the Deadpool film =]
but i hope they give him his mouth back.
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/24/09
and i hope they give him the correct powers, seriously he’s not supposed to have the swords pop out of his hands and he’s not supposed to shoot lasers out of his eyes (Cyclops wannabe)
Posted by: IndyX on 05/24/09
They could always have Deadpool break the fourth wall and demand a reboot
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/24/09
that reminds me of this video right here
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxfTPOpXh_8&feature=channel_page
Posted by: Steave on 05/24/09
They don’t need a reboot. The events that appear in Wolverine Origins have never been depicted in Comics only alluded to with comments like “rejected from Weapon X” All they need to do is have Pool’s healing factor reject the other enhancements in a violent and unpredictable way. This is the act that gets him rejected and dumped in the Workshop which would then tie into the comics stories nicely.
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/24/09
in case you forgot Deadpool got decapitated in the movie
Posted by: Steave on 05/24/09
Yeah, ‘cos he’s never survived worse in the comics. It was never even stated in to Movie that that would kill Sabes or Wolvie just that that’s what Wolvie would try. In Ultimate Wolverine/Hulk they even go into how Wolvie ‘breaths’ through his skin while his head is separated from his body to keep his brain conscious.
Posted by: IndyX on 05/25/09
Sorry but I see Deadpool’s character in the comic in a year making pot-shots about Wolverine the movie. How hard is it for them to be closer to the comics and have him do what we expect him to do: DEMAND A REBOOT.
Posted by: Helllion on 05/25/09
guess you didnt see the bit after the credits roll then,
where his decapitated head comes back to life and shushes the audience?
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/25/09
truthfully i only saw the bootleg version 2 weeks before the movie came out so i didn’t see it very well since the movie wasn’t finished at the time
Posted by: IndyX on 05/25/09
Saw it on youtube. Still believe in the Demanding Reboot idea.
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/25/09
yeah seriously, it was unforgivable taking away his mouth, they changed Deadpool’s personality into the complete oppisite of how he’s supposed to be like, i feel sorry for the audience who saw the movie but never read the comics because they’re missing out on a kickass character
Posted by: Deadpool vs Wolverine on 05/25/09
Doesn’t he get plastic surgery to get his face back?
Posted by: mesact on 05/27/09
yeah i agree, I had to explain to my mom how they ruined that character
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/27/09
i hate it when we comic book readers have to do that, it’s annoying, and unnecessary, damn movie directors making us have to do the work for them
Posted by: Helllion on 05/30/09
yeah i know, i went to see it in a group of 14, and there was only 2 of us that knew what was MEANT to be happening.
but now theyre doing a deadpool spin-off =]
and a magneto spin-off =]
and a venom spin-off =]
and a wolverine 2, iron man 2, avengers, spiderman 4…
theres actually alot of marvel films being made atm

Posted by: The Might Thor on 05/25/09
Looks like a GI Joe character.

Posted by: sxerockeram on 05/26/09
Impressive
Posted by: Steave on 05/26/09
Costumes that I’d like to see are the split personality costumes from Funeral for a Freak. Also The Thorpool costume would be fun as well.
Posted by: Jadryx on 06/16/09
I don’t really want the “joke” costumes but thats just my opinion

Lol, I was expecting them to make the deadpool character, but I love deadpool alot (no homo) so I had to state it XD
It was necessary (not really)

I’d like to see a “What does Deadpool sound like” Blog… I hope that they brought in some good writers for his dialogue!
Posted by: Jadryx on 06/01/09
Maybe they’ll do an expanded blog on the dialogue! Ha that rhymes! Deadpool would have to be included!
Posted by: Mr Reaper on 05/27/09
looks great.
Posted by: iron24 on 05/28/09
Okay even though I am not a big Deadpool fan he looks really cool in the trailer. That jump spin move where he is firing his maching guns was so sweet!
Posted by: iron24 on 05/29/09
I do hope they have even more verbal interactions planned in this game, Deadpool has some very funny lines in the last one.
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/30/09
Yeah hopefully he has some good lines in this aswell
Posted by: omega gama on 05/29/09
eh… he sounds extreamly fun and good, but as a long time deadpool fan, the costume is disapointing… i think it should be WAY!! tighter, but barly loose enof so we dont need to look at his package, and whats with that yellow thing? i dont remember ever seeing that, dont like the tip on the head, dont like the belt but love the clasic belt buckel, and i dont like his back part, so overall id say you would need about 1-3 good costumes to impress me for deadpool
Posted by: omega gama on 05/29/09
also i completly agree with the people who didnt like him iin the wolvie movie. but the guy would play a great deadpool if more like comic books… i here theyre making a deadpool movie also… hope cables in it
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/30/09
I hope Gambit is in it in someway
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/30/09
i’m pretty sure he’ll be in ths game, i mean he just showed up in a recent Marvel movie i think, the developers on the game have something planned for him
Posted by: SpideyWolvie on 05/31/09
really hope so
Posted by: wolvpool on 05/30/09
so do i, but im more of a deadpool and wolverine fan
Posted by: theshredder39 on 05/30/09
that doesn’t mean you can’t hope for more characters, i’m hoping for Ghost Rider to be confermed and he’s my favorite, same with Silver Surfer
Posted by: ExclusiveYODA on 05/31/09
Omega to answer your question the ‘’yellow’’ thing you never seen is what helps deadpool be able to teleport, and the pointy thing on his head was the what he wore in the first 100 comics.
Posted by: Steave on 05/31/09
Actually the teleporting device was traditionally on his belt. The device on his chest was specifically for dimension hopping to track down a missing Cable. The pointy bit was an artistic variant which wasn’t introduced until Cable/Deadpool I think. It may have been earlier but certainly wasn’t at the beginning of the original series.
Posted by: omega gama on 06/20/09
ummm, i read sum cable and deadpool and i always thought it was more floppy than pointy....
Posted by: Jadryx on 06/01/09
I like his mask without the pointy part but he still looks cool
Posted by: deadeye on 06/02/09
The Deadpool looks great!!!!!!!!1

Posted by: Deadpool_is_my_hero on 06/07/09
wow i can’t express how happy i am that he is in this game he is a credit to the super hero name
Posted by: galactus2688 on 06/08/09
He looks great I cant wait to use him, I had one question though why in the hell Daredevil is in the game someone answer that question for me.
Posted by: theshredder39 on 06/08/09
listen, you might not be a Daredevil fan but there are alot of us that are ok, so keep that comment to yourself

Posted by: Jadryx on 06/16/09
Thanks for adding all the reveal trailers to the character blogs!
Posted by: dragon_jay87 on 06/17/09
i agree deadpool is 1 of the cooler characters also my fav because of his fighting skill with his hands but he will also use guns, knives, bomds, and swords to get the job bone. lets not forget the wise cracks. How can you not like the merc loke him.
Posted by: The White Knight on 06/18/09
Deadpool is one of my favorite characters! I am glad he will be in this game!
Posted by: The White Knight on 06/18/09

I can’t wait to see some of deadpool’s gun attacks for this game!
Posted by: Dom Tha King on 06/21/09
Deadpool is funny as hell. but hell not funny unless you flame and burning, and if so get the human torch. But he not that funny.
Posted by: Smashup on 06/27/09
I played with him on the first one. And he is still great.
Posted by: venzilla on 06/27/09
have to give props they did good on the merc with a mouth!!!
Posted by: Ghetto Bird on 06/29/09
he looks awesome
Posted by: DarkAvengersRock on 07/02/09
can’t wait to see him break the fourth wall, to see him blow stuff up, to see him argue with himself! no, really! can’t wait!
Posted by: DarkAvengersRock on 07/03/09
DP is definitely gonna be on my team!
Posted by: DarkAvengersRock on 07/03/09

DP is wicked fun!
Posted by: DarkAvengersRock on 07/03/09
DP is gnarly, dude!
Posted by: dragonflame22 on 07/05/09
Ahh, Wacky Wade was by far the coolest character in MUA1. I am very glad he’s back!
Posted by: dragonflame22 on 07/05/09
Though i was hoping that Bob: Agent of Hydra would be a playable character. Maybe in the DLC…
Posted by: d3adpo0l on 07/07/09
Best Character by far.
Posted by: Spartan 007 on 07/07/09
Deadpool is the best hero ever can’t wait till i play him on MUA2! i can’t believe Deadpool can get any more awesome!
Posted by: The Might Thor on 07/17/09
He’s almost as good as Thor, Beta Ray Bill and Thunderstrike… HOOOOOOOOOOO!
Posted by: Deadpoolfan1981 on 07/11/09
The boots look a little **y to me. Everything else is cool.
Posted by: The Might Thor on 07/15/09
I dig the boots now.
Also checkout the lower shin padding… detail detail detail!

Posted by: BloodSpider on 07/17/09
Deadpool is gonna rock in MUA2
Posted by: juicebeast on 07/18/09
I can’t believe I haven’t commented on this yet! DP looks fantastic, and even though i really don’t care for the character, i can’t wait to use him for how great his playability looks. Is that last move they show part of a Fusion, or some evolved special attack? Either way it looks great!
Posted by: Hotty on 07/22/09
I hope they got the funny jocks he hade in the first game,Nobody
was funnier then Deadpool!
Posted by: Nova Prime on 07/23/09
The more I hear about how he plays, the more interested I am in trying him out!
Posted by: deadpool vs spiderman on 07/25/09
favorite marvel hero and favorite marvel villian
Posted by: schluff on 07/27/09
more pouches!
like if he steals somebodys pancreas, where is he gonna keep it?
Posted by: Solanum on 07/28/09
Omg!! Deadpool is the best character ever. He’s funny and totally badass. I just hope they get a better voice actor for em. The guy who did him in the first game wasn’t the greatest. Whoever did him in Hulk Vs was great. And so was Ryan Reynolds, doubt they’ll get him though lol.
Posted by: Concave_Ace on 08/02/09
Deadpool looks mighty awesome!
Posted by: Deadpool116 on 08/03/09
Yeah deadpool rules YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Danny Rand on 08/07/09
I can’t wait to see him break the fourth wall!!!
Posted by: the_mediator on 08/17/09
Same here. It wouldn’t be the same if the Merc with the Mouth didn’t break the fourth wall while in the team. The game wouldn’t be as humorous.
Posted by: Archkyoji on 08/08/09
I like almost all of this except the eyes being holes instead of black material it’s not horrible but I’m just not used to it yet hopefully as with the first one all characters will have more than 2 costume choices. I noticed on the SDCC Gameplay trailer that on the team selection screen you can hit X to bring up the costumes.
Posted by: Danny Rand on 08/08/09
what do u mean? DEadpool has always had the white things as eyes in his costumes
Posted by: Archkyoji on 08/08/09
No not the white things those I guess are his actual eyes in this version I’m referring to how the black around them is his skin I think painted or something it doesn’t look like black fabric or anything like he has on his classic costumes.
Posted by: Danny Rand on 08/08/09
oh right, It looks like it is under the red mask :S
Posted by: Archkyoji on 08/08/09
lol yeah but I looked at it a bit closer it may have the black as fabric it just looks rather fleshy instead of a matte version like they made it a coal color instead I’m still not sure though.
Posted by: Danny Rand on 08/09/09
yeah it could be…
Posted by: Zannff on 08/13/09
Can’t wait to play as this character one day =).

Posted by: Atel639 on 08/30/09
Deadpool rocks!!!
Posted by: mogbert on 08/31/09
Definitely my favorite character! He will be the character I play with most of the time, so I’m glad you actually read the comics (I removed the reference to earlier failed attempts at Deadpool).
Posted by: Ninjinister on 09/02/09
Just make him funny, fourth-wall breaking, and violent. That’s this nut in a nutshell.
Also: think about Squirrel Girl for Ultimate Alliance 3. Seriously. Endless possibilities.
Posted by: Nexus on 09/04/09
I can’t wait to see what kind of dialogue that they have included for him.
Posted by: Solar Flare on 09/08/09
Thats awesome. I think this will fix up the whole Messed Up Deadpool from X-Men Origins. Way to go, guys!
Posted by: MegaBass88 on 09/10/09
I would be very exited for this game if i did not have a wii :( The graphics are so good for everything but the wii… Its sad i was looking forward to playing as venom and deadpool with good graphics… :(
