EXCLUSIVE: Gwendolyn Poole Meets Deadpool in Gwenpool #13

CBR

The Merc with a Mouth crosses paths with Gwendolyn Poole for the first time, and we have an exclusive preview of their meeting.

Aside from their names, off-kilter senses of humor and making a living by doing horrible things to (usually) horrible people, Deadpool and Gwenpool really don't have a lot in common. Sure, they both break the fourth wall, but Wade Wilson's commentary has more to do with his broken mind, while Gwendolyn Poole is providing commentary based on her knowledge of the Marvel Universe, information she learned in her home dimension where Marvel's heroes and villains saw their battle play out in the pages of comics books. (I know - crazy, right?)

That said, it's a bit of a surprise when you realize that the pair have yet to cross paths since Gwenpool's introduction on a series of variant covers in June 2015. That changes in March, however, when "Gwenpool" #13 pits the faking it until she makes it anti-hero against Arcade. And, in the CBR-exclusive preview of the issue, while she attempts to survive her experience in Murderworld, Gwen finds herself enlisting the help of one Wade Wilson.
