EVIL DEADPOOL WAS BUILT FROM WADE'S OWN THROWN-AWAY BODY PARTS — A FAN STITCHED HIS LEFTOVER LIMBS INTO A SECOND DEADPOOL!

The Featured Fact

Wade Wilson's healing factor has one deeply unhygienic side effect: the pieces come off, and then they keep living. In Deadpool Vol. 2 #45 (2011), writer Daniel Way introduced Evil Deadpool, a patchwork double assembled from severed limbs and chunks that Wade had lost in fights over the years and never bothered to retrieve.

The parts ended up in a dumpster, where an obsessive Deadpool admirer collected them like memorabilia. Wade's discarded flesh did what Wade's flesh always does — it regenerated, grew together, and stood up as a complete person with Wade's abilities, Wade's memories in scrambled form, and none of Wade's already-questionable restraint. The copy came back wrong in specific ways, too, including two right hands where a matched set should have been.

Evil Deadpool then did the one thing a souvenir is never supposed to do: he went looking for the original. His pursuit of Wade turned a running gag about disposable body parts into a genuine doppelganger problem, because every argument for which of them counted as the real Deadpool started with the same DNA and got worse from there.

Why It's Obscure

Wade's worst enemy was not a villain with a plan — it was his own medical waste, promoted to supervillain.

The raw material

Limbs Wade left behind — Years of battles shed hands, arms, and worse across the Marvel Universe, and Wade's healing factor never once asked where the old pieces went.

The collector

A fan with a dumpster — An admirer gathered the discarded parts as keepsakes, giving scattered flesh from one body the proximity it needed to knit itself whole.

The tell

Two right hands — The double's mismatched anatomy marked him as an assembly rather than a clone, a stitched inventory of fights Wade had walked away from.

The reunion

Original versus leftovers — Evil Deadpool hunted Wade down as a rival for the name, turning regeneration from a superpower into an identity dispute with guns.
