10 Mind-Blowing Facts You Didn't Know About Deadpool

When Wade Wilson met the Queen of the Undead, Shiklah, in Deadpool: The Gauntlet #3, little did anyone know that the two would not only become husband and wife but also set a Guinness World Record in the process.

In Deadpool #27, the two would tie the knot and the marriage of the century would have a cover as epic as the wedding itself.

232 characters would appear on the front panel and with 224 being well enough known to the general public, Guinness would say it was the biggest collection of super-heroes to ever grace a comic book cover.

Deadpool editor Jordan White was certainly impressed, reflecting on the record win below:

"When artist Scott Koblish proposed this cover layout to me, I thought he was crazy, but it’s the kind of crazy you have to respect. I think there’s no better testament to both his insanity and the amazing cover he and colorist Val Staples produced than an officially recognized world record.”

He has a point, as it truly is genius that could only be derived from madness. And if the thought of Deadpool being in the Guinness Book of World Records doesn't fill you with a certain amount of glee, then there is something very wrong with you.
