The History Of Deadpool’s Relationship With Wolverine

Wolverine and Deadpool are far too popular to remain confined to the comics page, so it only makes sense they’d eventually run into each other in animation. In 2009’s “Hulk vs. Wolverine,” Logan’s summoned by Department H to stop the Hulk’s rampage, but finds his tussle with the Jade Giant interrupted when Deadpool shoots both of them with multiple tranquilizer darts. Wolverine wakes up chained to a wall in Weapon X headquarters, where he learns he’s been used as bait so the program can capture and brainwash the Hulk. Once Deadpool’s fellow Weapon X operatives and their boss, the Professor, leave, Wade taunts Wolverine before shooting him point blank in the head. Due to standing so close, however, Deadpool gets hit by the ricochet.

Naturally, he heals and joins Sabretooth, Lady Deathstrike, and Omega Red in hunting down Wolverine when Logan tries to escape with Banner. Wade’s attempts to subdue them don’t go too well, as Wolverine first elbows him to the ground, then slices his arm off. Complicating things further is Banner transforming back into the Hulk, whose rampage is barely stalled when Logan decides to chuck Wade’s body at him.

Suffice to say, Wolverine and Deadpool are not friends here. While Wade often talks to Logan like he’s an old buddy, he makes his and his cohorts’ feelings toward Wolverine quite clear, telling him, “We all hate you.” It’s fairly consistent with Deadpool’s portrayal in his earlier comics, with the humor slightly ramped up.
