Rob Liefeld co-created the character while serving as the penciler for The New Mutants series. Deadpool made his first appearance in The New Mutants #98 where he served an antagonist. The character would go on to become an antagonist for Rob Liefeld’s X-Force series and would undergo a series of changes with other writers and artists before becoming the character we all know and love today.
Rob Liefeld’s Deadpool has been portrayed in live-action a total of three times by Ryan Reynolds. He first appeared in the 2009 film, X-Men Origins: Wolverine before getting his own movie in the 2016 hit film that was simply called Deadpool. 20th Century Fox then followed up with Deadpool 2. After the Disney acquisition of Fox, no one seemed to know what would happen to Ryan Reynolds’ version of the character. But it seems a third film is very much in development and Rob Liefeld is celebrating it.

After surviving a near fatal bovine attack, a disfigured cafeteria chef (Wade Wilson) struggles to fulfill his dream of becoming Mayberry’s hottest bartender while also learning to cope with his lost sense of taste. Searching to regain his spice for life, as well as a flux capacitor, Wade must battle ninjas, the yakuza, and a pack of sexually aggressive canines, as he journeys around the world to discover the importance of family, friendship, and flavor – finding a new taste for adventure and earning the coveted coffee mug title of World’s Best Lover.
