In a surprising twist, the finale of ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ saw the return of the Carnage symbiote, not as a villain but as a new pet for Deadpool. The shocking development, which introduces Princess, a clone of the Carnage symbiote, has fans buzzing about the future implications for the Marvel universe.
Deadpool’s Unlikely New Companion
In ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ #5, written by Alyssa Wong and illustrated by Martín Cóccolo, Deadpool encounters a dog-like creature created from the Carnage symbiote. The issue reveals that this new symbiote, named Princess, is the result of Harrower’s experiments using samples from Cletus Kasady’s symbiote.
The Rocky Training Montage
Princess, who was formerly known as “Britain’s Ugliest Dog,” underwent an intense training regimen to prepare for her role in the comic. Executive producer Wendy Jacobson describes the process as “cut to the Rocky training montage.” Princess’ transformation from a shy, unsocial dog to a confident, superhero-worthy companion is nothing short of remarkable.
Deadpool’s History with Pets
This isn’t the first time Deadpool has cared for an unconventional pet. Previously, he looked after Jeff the Shark, demonstrating his ability to connect with animals that are often misunderstood or feared. Deadpool’s healing factor makes him uniquely qualified to handle a pet with the power to rip him to shreds, adding a darkly humorous dynamic to his relationship with Princess.
As fans speculate about Princess’ potential shape-shifting abilities and the implications of her presence in the Marvel universe, one thing is certain: Deadpool’s new pet brings a fresh, fun twist to the character’s story and opens up exciting possibilities for future adventures.
