10 Worst Things Deadpool Has Ever Done
3. Using His Own Child As Bait
Surely it can't get any worse can it? (Well, it does, but we'll get to that shortly.)
During a fight with the villainous Mad Cap, Deadpool opted to use his daughter as bait in an attempt to get the upper hand on his foe and lure him out. This is nothing short of an act of villainy! For anyone to purposefully place their child in danger is one of the most anti-hero things you can possibly imagine. This paints Deadpool as not only an anti-hero willing to "do whatever it takes for the greater good", but as a bad person and ultimately a horrible parent.
His daughter had not been in his life a great deal prior, meaning he was placing what was essentially a long lost child into danger, but hey, that's Wade for you right? In addition she hadn't been given an option, Deadpool had manoeuvred her into position and before she was aware, had already laid the trap for his enemy.
Making the scenario worse is that she is actually subjected to perilous gunfire and is saved from something tragic at the last second by Quicksilver. Granted Deadpool had planned to have the speedster waiting in the wings just in case from the off, but this does not redeem the act itself.
