thank u someone agrees with me"

Wolverine is a mutant. Deadpool is a human who was given healing powers by the agency of Canada who worked for the Weapon Plus program(Weapon  X) and broke off on its own known as Department K. He fell in love with Death and later on Thanos made him immortal so they could not be together for Thanos also loved her.

There's not really a correct answer to it. All though Deadpool was a human from the start, he was turned into a mutant. So it depends which way you look at it.

so, the origin of wolverines was a bunch of lies.

He was mutated. He was part of weapon X to find a cure for his cancer.

wow i know it's old, but this was the dumbest conversation ever. wolverine IS a mutant, deadpool is not.

not sure why you people think wolverine's not. nobody cares what Loeb says. if you just pull up the official wolverine page on the MARVEL site, it says right on there that he's a mutant. i'll even link you. loeb may have written a story that was his own idea for an origin story or something, but it's not canon if it's saying he's not a mutant.

@deadpool1fanjon: no

He is not a mutant. He is something called a mutate.

Deadpool is a human mutate that got his powers from the Weapon-X program trying to replicate Wolverine's healing factor, although Deadpool's healing factor is very different from Wolverine's. It's faster, he can regrow limbs and his head, it's mentally driven to a partial extent, and it's constantly active. Perhaps because it's an imperfect replication.

Although, the "Age of Apocalypse" and "House of M" storylines suggest that Deadpool is indeed a mutant. This could be made canon since the procedure to gain Wolverine's healing factor failed and that he didn't get his healing abilities until he was dying and his powers manifested with an eerie green glow. Also, as I said, his healing factor is different from Wolverine's.

Deadpool isn't a mutant, he's a mutate. Because he's been mutated. He was a "normal guy" (as far as you can call that normal) who's been mutated by the X-Program. Neither Lady-Deadpool, Dogpool, Pulp-pool, Kid-pool,... are mutants.

LOL late reaction

Even tho the topic is 7years old. You guys made 165 wrong replys about deadpool. And you guys even discuise about wolverine being a mutant *sigh*.

So for the people who would like to know it they are mutants:

both deadpool and wolverine were born as a mutant and they both were enhanced by weapon X

* wolverine even lived over a decade before he was enhanced by weapon x and he had he's abillitys when he was still a kid - doesnt seem human 2 me...

* wade wilson was part of a mutant group "team-x" in wolverine origins, why would they put a non-mutant in it? - you think a human being got the speed 2 cut a bullet in 2 when fired at him?

Jack aka Deadpool: Wade Wilson was a soldier and mercenary with enhanced far beyond human reflexes and agility due to him being a mutant.

btw, sorry for my bad english if i made spelling errors

First of all, you can't use the Wolverine Origins movie as evidence to support your theory that Deadpool in the comics (Which is who we're talking about in this threat) was born a mutant. They're two very different art mediums. That's like saying that Batman is in a homosexual relationship with Superman in the comics because I saw it in a fan-art..... or that the Joker is dead because I saw it happen in Batman Arkham City and Arkham Knight....Or that pudding is jello because they both come in a cup.

The movies and comics are not the same. In the comics, Deadpool was not born a mutant.

ok, i get it, i can't use the movie as refference. i'm sorry, didnt new that the comics were used as the main discussion

and what about this:

the Weapon X Program, from department K = U.S./Canadian superhuman enhancement project. - - Sounds like they only try 2 enhance SUPERHUMANS, no? They don't just use normal humans with project X, they did that with earlier projects , i can't remember wish on

Read the comics dude. Wade Winston Wilson is not a mutant. Jordan D. White the editor of Deadpool has stated this to be fact. Do you read the comics at all? Everytime Wade himself has teamed up with the X-Men and says he is a mutant to get under their skin he gets screamed at.

@chefpool: for starters i indeed didn't finish reading all he's comic. I only read the complete classic serie, cable and deadpool and all the one-shot/mini tpb's. So indeed i'm not fammiliar with vol2 and 3 and other comics series where he shows up in, that aren't mentioned in the classics.

But if we all new he's a mutant or not, there woudn't be this topic, right? There would be no discussion. After reading the classics i didn't found an answer to my question. When searching the net, i coudn't find proof either. So yeah, he probbably has a 95% chance 2 be a human. Cause he's a deathstroke "rip-off" and he is a human aswell. But the fact that there so much unknown/untold about he's past (for what i read untill this day) gifs me a 5% window to think he might be human. Afterall he was a soldier and mercenary with enhanced far beyond human reflexes and agility. Then again there are more characters that do so aswell and are human. And then we have the weapon x program, they are enhancing mutants, everyone in the flashback is a mutant and then there is wade wilson... Ofc department k had projects on aswell mutants and humans, so no real answer there either. But that brings me to the wolverine origens movie, that i can't use as a refference, but that made me convinced he was one. He's in team-x a black ops mutant group and yes he wasn't really in team-x acording to the comics.

And yes, i took a bad attidude on my first reply to the topic and i regret that i did.

concerning youre picture: yes deadpool says allot 2 distract or to piss off ppl and yes he auccasinolly sais hes a mutant and everbody sais otherwise. So no real answer for me either

and yes maybe i'm not so familliar with the mutant comics, cause i only read the punisher, green lantern, danger girl, witchblade, gen 13, aliens, predator en aliens vs predator comic series.

No he doesn't have a 5% chance of being a mutant dude. Deadpool is a mutate not a mutant. He was born a human and was genetically modified to receive his powers. You openly admitted you didn't read a lot of the comics..I have. I'm not trying to do anything but help you. This isn't up for debate it is a fact. It's like saying Superman has a 5% chance of being from earth.

From his Marvel.com bio:

"Learning that he had contracted cancer, Wilson broke up with Vanessa rather than force her to remain with a terminally ill man. In Canada, he was offered hope in the form of Department K, a special weapons development branch of the Canadian government. Wilson became a test subject in Department K’s branch of the joint U.S./Canadian superhuman enhancement project, the Weapon X Program; his cancer was temporarily arrested via the implantation of a healing factor derived from another Department K agent, the mutant adventurer Wolverine."

@chefpool:

i'm aware of that i didn't read all the serie's and it might be my lack of englisch and knowlage. I already made my appoligiez a previous time

but thell me this: Wilson became a test subject in Department K’s branch of the joint U.S./Canadian superhuman enhancement project, the Weapon X Program. It sais they enhance superhumans? Or what is the meaning of the project? And why all are the other ppl that are in that building at that time, mutants?

@chefpool: i've got the same discuission somewhere else and there i getted this reply from Jaden Daywalt :

I definitely think there's some argument for this. The reasons you give are good and I would add two things to the list:

1.) In The Good, The Bad and The Ugly a similar even plays out where it's found Butler has been quietly harvesting Wade's organs for years and splicing them into humans in Korea ( along with DNA from other mutants ) in a sort of spin-off of the Weapon X program. All of these experiments live in pain and suffering and start dying shortly afterward due to the cancerous cells that were spliced into them from Wade's DNA.

2.)Also stemmed from that same plotline, Butler had kidnapped Wades daughter, Ellie when she was an infant and ran tests on her to find that her X Gene ( yes, she has an X Gene ) is already active in her from infancy and his plan was to keep her in captivity to perform god knows what tests on her down the line... until Wade murders him.

Now as far as I know no one else in the Marvel universe ( including Wade ) know about Ellie's X Gene ( few even know about Ellie at all ) except for maybe Agents Preston and Adsit who had a flashback of her kidnapping during the even that flipflopped everyone's alignments.

What I do know is that editor Jordan D. White and writer Mike Hawthorn have confirmed that the All New All Different Deadpool series will pick up from the Death of Deadpool arc and will include Ellie and "they have some big plans for her."

and what about; The Secondary Mutation (or "Second Mutation")is a phenomenon in which an existing mutant gains additional powers, or a change in appearance. Secondary mutation is noted as the appearance of new powers, or an increase in existing powers. Maybe the weapon-x program tricked this? It has been shown that secondary mutation could be triggered by more or less natural means, like Beast's mutations coming from his initial experimentation on himself

this is what i found at the back of deadpool and cable 2 tpb: marvel mightiest mutant mercs are back and this time they're stuck with each other

Ok ...we are going in circles. You are WRONG. This isn't up for debate. Wade Wilson was born a human and he was modified to become a MUTATE. If you do not choose to believe facts then fine. I only want to help you but you obviously do not wish to believe facts. It is called the superhuman enhancement program because it not only enhances super humans it creates them. Wade was just a cancer stricken mercenary when he got there and they made him in to a superhuman MUTATE by giving him Wolverine's healing factor. They made him superhuman.

@chefpool: ok then, i rest my case and i'll believe what you and the other ppl on this topic. I just didn't find any hard evidence of this and i made wrong accuisitions about references out of the movie. I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry. I think this is our language barrier. I'm sorry for getting frustrated. I hope you do read more Deadpool. He is a really fun character. Again sorry for my frustration. No disrespect intended.

@chefpool:i'm surely gonna read the rest of the series, i already got them, all still unpacked.

Concurning the frustration, i get that, i went off at the wrong foot aswell, on this topic.

As I have read deadpool comics since his first appearance in New Mutants and collect both marvel and "x-men" cards since back in the late 80's to the early 90's I can affirmly tell you that wether Deadpool is a mutant or a mutate instead, depends on the writer. It basically the same as to whom the real Wade Wilson is wether it's T-Ray or Deadpool.

Deadpool was originally a mutant with super human agility and reflexes as his mutant power. That later on got retconned in the CableDeadpool series where they made him purely a mutate and then recently got retconned again in Deadpool comics. The second retcon happened when he discovered Eleanor inherited his x-gene and that she herself was a mutant.

Below is proof he started off as a mutant but can't find a picture on google of the panel I'm referring to when he got retconned to being a mutant again.

@arkainmon:

There's no retcon. Ellie is a mutant simply because she's a mutant. But Jordan D. White stated recently that Wade isn't a mutant, and doesn't have an X-gene. How is Ellie a mutant if Wade isn't? Because she just is. I am sure not all mutants were born to other mutants. Sabretooth & Mystique had a human son. Sabretooth's parents were humans who have birth to a mutant. So while an X-gene can be hereditary, it doesn't have to be. Some individuals have, or don't have, one regardless of their parentage.

Wade isn't a mutant. In fact it's said again in the series. Magneto wants Sabretooth to stop playing around with Deadpool because they have other things to do. Creed wants to help Wade, but Magneto protests because Deadpool isn't one of their kind (a mutant). When he was planning to kill Deadpool, he tells Sabretooth that Wade doesn't care about what happens to their kind, and was pissed that Wade was about to murder Creed with T-mist. Note the T-mist is death for mutants. It had no effect on Wade. Anyway, Sabretooth tells Magneto that Deadpool will help find a cure because his daughter is a mutant, and he'll do the right thing for her. So Magneto allows him to live so he can protect his daughter -one of his kind.

When Domino asks Wade if he wants all the mutants to die, he says he'd settle for 1 mutant alive, which is Ellie. He's not included in that -because he's not a mutant.

@whitefang: If I recall correctly when he first finds out his daughter was alive, he did state he was worried she inherited the xgene from him. Which means it was implied but, not made as fact but from your sources it which are more current would state that you're correct he still isn't a mutant. She either a) be the first in his blood line as you stated earlier or b) it could even be argued she inherited the x-gene from having wolverine's blood mixed in with his own, regardless it doesn't matter the reason. But in the 90's before he got retconned in CableDeadpool he still was originally a mutant. And in some Marvel Video games he's still classed as a Mutant so again it depends on the writer. But for arguement's sake he's consistently been a mutate in the comics longer than he has been a mutant.

Argument settled.
