Deadpool: 10 Obscure References You Probably Missed

8. Joe Kelly: Waitress

There's plentiful references to Deadpool co-creator Rob Liefeld in Deadpool, but he and Fabian Nicieza weren't the only two people who had a big impact on the Merc with a Mouth. In fact, Joe Kelly may actually have had just as important an influence - he was the writer who introduced the entire concept of Deadpool breaking the fourth wall and, consequently, stopped the character's own comic getting cancelled. So of course there's a reference to Kelly in the movie (even if it's a bit more subtle that "F*ck Liefeld" and Nicieza St) - the waitress is Sister Margaret's who Wade gets to give the blow job (drink) to Buck is called Kelly.
