Deadpool is an anti-hero and has saved the world on many occasions.
Almost as many times as he has endangered it.
Wade Wilson is a complex individual, which is why he's an anti-hero.
He's an assassin who tries to do what's right but sometimes the path to being good isn't
as clear, especially when he paves it as much as he does with blood and brain matter and
not always his own.
Today we're going to take a look at some of the consequences of some of Deadpool's less
than squeaky clean acts as we count down the top 10 worst things Deadpool has ever done.

10 Took Advice from a Serial Killer
Sort of.
In one of the volumes of Foolkiller, Deadpool makes a cameo appearance when he visits his
pal Gregory Salinger who was once the mass murderer Foolkiller, a man who killed anyone
he deemed a fool.
Though he wasn't the first to don the mantle Foolkiller, Salinger had his own interpretation
of what made someone a fool.
Often he associated foolishness with those were obsessed with the material or anyone
who he considered mediocre.
Quite dangerous as mediocrity can be very interpretive.
He tried to take out both the Defenders and Spider-Man and almost killed himself after
hearing someone remark that anyone who would take on Spider-Man was a fool.
He spent some time in a mental hospital after being declared criminally insane.
Later he got his degree in psychology and during Deadpool's cameo attempts to give him
a therapy session.
Deadpool also reminisces about the time he wanted to kill Salinger and ties up his girlfriend
who he confesses he really doesn't like, even going so far as to suggest that she should
just die.
9 Forced Cannibalism on Archangel
When Archangel was left wasting away, Deadpool stepped in to save him.
At first sight in the comics, this appeared to be a kindness of Deadpool.
He was trying his help his buddy to stay alive, effectively saving him.
Then Angel wanted to know what he was eating.
And it was revealed that Deadpool was feeding his teammate his own flesh without Angel's
consent.
In other words he was forcing Archangel into an act of cannibalism.
So sure he was saving his life, but you should probably give your teammate the option as
to whether or not they want to eat your flesh.
I also can't imagine that Deadpool would taste great.
8 Killed Classic Literary Heroes
In Deadpool Killustrated, which is not considered canon, Deadpool extends his wrath for the
Marvel universe to even any literary figures who inspired the very characters he has hunted.
He goes after Moby Dick, Scrooge, the Musketeers, Sherlock Holmes and even puts an end to the
characters of Little Women.
This may be an awful deed that Deadpool accomplished but it also is a must read as Cullen Bunn
is the writer behind the 4 issue series.
Cullen Bunn is also known for his non-Marvel comic book work in the horror series Harrow
County.
Which you should also read, if you haven't already.
7 Killed his Own Parents
Of course this wasn't of Deadpool's own volition per se.
That is he didn't know they were his parents as he had been brainwashed by the Butler and
had his mind wiped.
Still he returned to his parents' home in Canada, who again he didn't remember.
He was sent there to kill them as a test to see how much control Butler had over Wade.
Upon arrival he experiences some deja vu and Sabretooth tells him that he could always
just not follow through on the job, starting to feel a little bad for Deadpool.
But Deadpool doesn't really understand why he wouldn't do the job.
A job's a job, he says.
But the Canadian superhero team Alpha Flight shows up and interrupts them.
Later on, Deadpool returns to his parents' house to finish the job.
He seems to recognize the home and some items in it but he still does not flinch, removing
the smoke alarms and setting the home ablaze with his sleeping parents inside.
6 Enslaved a Man
Chef Deadpool has kind of become almost an alternate or alter-ego of Deadpool's.
He has his own Pop figure and is what people refer to Deadpool as when he's sporting his
chef's hat and usually cooking something up.
In case you didn't know, Deadpool's regeneration factor also give him a pretty much bottomless
stomach, meaning he can eat an insane amount of food and that you shouldn't expect to win
an eating contest against him anytime soon.
He loves pancakes so much he even made over 300,000 of them one time.
But more than pancakes, one of Deadpool's favourite foods to eat is obviously the chimichanga.
I get it.
I had my first chimichanga earlier this year because of Deadpool when I was in Arizona.
And they are by far one of the best things ever.
So good!
His love of chimichangas drove him to do something dastardly though, when he is shown keeping
a man he calls Paco as his slave in a tiny oven where the man is forced to make him an
endless amount of chimichangas.
The man just wants to go home to his family but Deadpool reminds him that the oven could
get a lot hotter, should Paco cease cooking up chimichangas for him.
5 Wore Fur
And real fur too.
Okay, so this has less to do with actual wearing of real fur specifically and more to do with
the fact of who the fur used to belong to.
During the events of Deadpool Kills the Marvelverse, Deadpool eliminates almost all of the X-Men
by using Cyclops optic blasts after he has captured Professor X. Somewhere in between
this and when Wolverine shows up to avenge his fallen X-Men, Deadpool manges to get his
hands on Beast's fur and fashion a headpiece for himself.
Wolverine's healing factor appears to have met its match in Deadpool's carbonadium sword
and Wolverine is taken down by Wade while he wears Logan's fallen teammate's fur like
a sadistic trophy.
4 Used His Daughter As Bait
Yeah so for those that don't know, Wade Wilson has a daughter.
Little Ellie Camacho.
Wade generally tries to keep some distance between Ellie and her mother for their own
safety.
Unless apparently there is a copycat on the loose bent on ruining his reputation.
Then he thinks it's perfectly fine to put his daughter in harm's way.
When Madcap was running around pretending to be Deadpool, Wade came up with a plan to
catch him inspired by the film Jaws.
He would use Ellie as his chum, aka bait to draw out the shark, aka Madcap.
The plan worked but put Ellie in a great deal of danger.
Within no time gunfire opened on her.
Fortunately Quicksilver was on standby to save her but still pretty reckless parenting
on Wade's part.
3 Killed Phil Coulson
This mission is given to Deadpool by Captain America who is later revealed to have been
working for Hydra all along.
You know, hail Hydra and all that.
Deadpool has always looked up to Captain America and as such excitedly accepts the mission,
though he doesn't quite understand why he is required to take out one of SHIELD's finest
agents but he trusts that Cap has a good reason.
In the comics, Deadpool point of view is also interspersed with Coulson's point of view
and we see the tragic juxtaposition of two men who admired Captain America and everything
he has stood for but who have different information in regards to who Cap really is.
Coulson knows that Cap is aligned with HYDRA and knows what he has planned.
He is seeking to get the word out and even pleads with Deadpool to question his orders
but alas he is unsuccessful in swaying the mercenary and ends up dead anyways.
2 Killed the Entire Marvelverse
This didn't happen even just once by the way.
Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe was so popular that it quickly transformed from a
one-shot into the Deadpool Killogy.
Comprised of Deadpool Killustrated and Deadpool Kills Deadpool as well.
The first time around this happened because he was locked up by his friends in an insane
asylum for Wade's own good but also for the good of everyone else because you know he
can be pretty annoying.
This was overall a bad idea though as it resulted in Deadpool realizing that he and everyone
else in Marvel were fictional characters trapped in a comic book and he broke himself out,
deciding he needed to free everyone by killing them.
The next time around it was less of Deadpool's fault as he seemed like he was the victims
of brainwashing.
1 Wolverine: Origins
I know we can't fully blame Deadpool for this one and that he made amends for this version
of Deadpool by killing him at the end of Deadpool 2, but I can't make a worst things list revolving
around Wade Wilson without mentioning this vile vile atrocity.
It hurts my eyes anytime I even think of it.
In Wolverine Origins, our first insight into Wade Wilson's character is actually pretty
promising.
The Merc with a Mouth lives up to his reputation of being an expert killing machine who can't
stop cracking wise.
But then he undergoes some experimentation that takes away everything we love about him.
His mouth is sewn shut and he's fully under control of Stryker and is now called Weapon
XI.
His katanas are now Wolverine-like blades that emerge from between his knuckles.
Great, just what Deadpool likes to be known as, a bad Wolverine rip-off.

I hope you enjoyed reminiscing about just awful even some of Wade's best intentions
can be.
I always feel so bad for the guy.
A lot of his terrible actions are just because Wade finds it hard to discern right from wrong
and often doesn't really understand what he's doing.
Poor dude.
But still if someone tries to use them he usually gets his vengeance in the end.
