Jamie Lovett explains why Deadpool is the likely candidate for Marvel to kill off.

“Gabriel also mentioned that the death would occur in issue #250. The current ongoing Deadpool series isn’t anywhere near that number of issue, but Marvel is known for reverting to numbering that includes all volumes of a series in order to mark big milestone numbers. X-Men Legacy #300 is one of the most recent examples of this. If you add up all of the issues of Deadpool’s core series, including the four-issue Deadpool miniseries, The Circle Chase miniseries, and the issues of Cable & Deadpool and Deadpool: Merc With A Mouth, that makes November’s Deadpool #37, the latest issue to be solicited, the 245th issue of a Deadpool series. That means Deadpool #42 will be the 250th issue of a Deadpool series, and that issue should arrive in March 2015.”

After giving Deadpool’s fans the news of the year that their idol is finally moving up with the big boys to have his own movie, did Marvel really have to douse water on the good vibes that the character is enjoying? The war between 20th Century Fox and Marvel is real and this, along with Wolverine’s death, might be the comic book company’s way of getting even with Fox.

So we’re going out on a limb to say that, Deadpool is definitely going to be six feet under in March of 2015. It’s either him or Dead Girl of X-Statix but our bet is on ‘Pool.

What do you think? Is there anyone else whom Marvel could kill off other than the Merc with a Mouth?
