Deadpool is the super-anti-hero who knows he's in a comic book. His
unique situation and blood-stained history give rise to many
philosophical puzzles. A group of philosophical Deadpool fans delve
into these puzzles in Deadpool and Philosophy. For instance, if you
know that someone is writing the script of your life, can you
really be a hero? Is Deadpool really Wade Wilson, or did Wilson
have his identity stolen by the monster who is now Deadpool? Are
his actions predetermined by the writers, or does he trick the
writers into scripting his choices? And what happens when Deadpool
breaks into the real world to kill the writers? What kind of
existence do literary characters have? How can we call him a moral
agent for good when he still commits murder left and right and then
left again and then right? Since Deadpool gets paid for his good
deeds, can they be truly heroic? And which of the many Deadpool
personalities are the real Deadpool? And of course, why does
Deadpool love to annoy Wolverine so much? Deadpool challenges us to
think outside the box. Deadpool and Philosophy shows us the
profound implications of this most contradictory and perplexing
comic book character.
