As some of you may or may not know, Marvel’s Most Eligible Mercenary, Deadpool, is tying the knot this spring. While the Save the Date announcements have been sent, it still remains to be seen who the lucky lady is going to be.
The rumours have been flying, with everyone trying to guess just who is hiding behind the veil. We here at AP2HYC have decided to throw in our lot with five of our favourite possible brides for Deadpool. But, in true Deadpool fashion, we decided to pick the most outrageous characters we could think of to be Mrs. Wade Wilson!
5. Siryn
Perhaps the only realistic choice on the list, Deadpool and Siryn were on-again-off-again in some of his early appearances, and he definitely sported a long-time crush on the Irish X-Man. She seems like a fairly obvious choice in a love-interest for Deadpool, as the relationship would appeal to long-time fans. Personally, I just think it would be hilarious because Siryn never seemed to really like ‘Pool and most of the time was just putting up with his ridiculousness. Also, best to plug your ears during the vows, because the only thing louder than Siryn’s “I don’t!” will be father Banshee’s objection to this unholy union!
4. Mary Jane Watson
Remember that time Deadpool went back in time and pretended to be Peter Parker for a day back in the 1960s? Because I certainly do. Deadpool and Spidey already have a lot in common: wise cracks, red in their costumes. I think it would be endlessly entertaining to see Deadpool steal the heart of Spider-Man’s true love; and considering how many times we’ve seen a villain bust into a hero’s wedding, how great would it be to see a hero busting into an anti-hero’s wedding? I just can’t get the image of Peter swooping in and webbing MJ’s mouth shut just before she says “I do!” out of my head.
3. Blind Al
Blind Al is Deadpool’s hostage/housekeeper/
On the other hand… ewwwwwwww!
2. Wolverine
Gay marriage is legal in Canada, right?
They were comrades in arms (and sometimes, without arms) during their time in the Weapon X program. It’s not hard to imagine what might have happened on a cold night in the wilds of Canada…
Okay, I’ll be honest, I really just want to see Wolverine in a wedding dress, even if he spends the whole time trying to claw his way out.
1. Mystique
Now, this one is entirely for the potential comedic value. Making the bride Mystique would be a funny and cheap way to have Deadpool marry a whole bunch of different people at the same time. And considering how much he breaks the fourth wall already, this could end up being a whole lot of fun, with the identity of the bride changing from panel to panel. He could be kissing Rogue one minute, Sue Storm the next, and maybe end with a mouthful of Colossus (that sentence kind of got away from me at the end there).
Here’s our list of honourable mentions/people we’d love to see Mystique change into:
– Cable
– Kingpin
– Scarlet Witch
– The Entire Fantastic 4
– Thanos
– Loki (and/or Lady Loki)
– Nick Fury
– Stan Lee
– The Hulk
