He's not Guts-tier and Guts has a girl who has been around him for quite some time before things took a turn for the worst before getting a chance to meet Grisha once more, I know. Plus he's had as many flings and relationships on par with Batman or some other celebrity, I know. Other characters have died and came back like Hulk, Wolverine, and Jean Grey, I know. Something about Tokyo Ghoul, I know. Alucard had a backstory that was probably sad if I checked, I know. Characters like Naruto or Beast boy present their humor and trickery often when they have an opposing lifestyle, I know. But that is not counting his condition which is represented differently in various forms of comic art to mild and extremely gruesome, mentality, streak of suffering, and other aspects.
The guy whose had a streak of bad luck when it comes to finding a love interest and if he does then they are either crazy, dead, dead because he had to kill them himself, didn't love him back, or just evil, has cancer and a powerful healing factor present all over his body which has disfigured him, has a healing factor that clashes with the cancer and bruises that he has been and is dealing with throughout his run, got a bad rep from one writer's run, doesn't want to kill but it has always been his choice which he refuses to accept it thereby making him not the hero he would set out to be like Batman, wants to die but can't die when he wants to die because of both his healing factor and Thanos cursing him, endured so much pain and injuries that it's imbedded in his memories, is aware of being in a comic book and shows his depressed reaction to it when he's not joking, has friends who will screw him over when they find it convenient, has to deal with plenty of death, is unable to create a stable relationship or be at ease with a common ground due to his condition, mentality, and lack of luck, or will get abused and tricked by someone he decides to share more than 1/10th of his emotions and time with, had to kill a friend who was turned into a vegetable after being inspired by Deadpool and calling him a hero, got trapped in some locker rock for 800+ years with nothing but playing childhood games and interacting with himself, had family issues with his abusive father and his mother who had died of cancer, was tortured before becoming the well-known Deadpool, becoming a very unlikable guy with those around him and people who just think of meme Deadpool, has trapped his blind and arguably loyal companion in rooms where one time involved having sharp glass all around to stumble to at times, gets betrayed and suffers if he does a polite or kind thing at times, etc. Even if he cracks a joke, comes out with some upbringing expression, or is a disembodied head who cracks jokes despite dealing with so much torment, that doesn't mean he's had far less torture and suffering than anyone else. He has his moments.
I mean yeah you could show me your list of non-comedic characters who have the lone-wolf and edgy mentality having tragic lives and all but just because you feel indifferent to a character does not mean you are correct. That's just an opinion. But yes, characters like that Hunchback of Notre Dame being isolated from society due to his appearance and never getting the girl or Plastic Man who spent 3,000 years under the sea all separated and was traumatized even after reforming to the point of I think giving up the mantle or even Doomsday who will never find any retribution for enduring endless cycles of death because he too is disfigured and can't form any real bond worth feeling great about for years and so forth without worry due to his mind focusing on killing anything and everything can be above Deadpool. You can show me some characters though. I'll wait.
