Deadpool is one of Marvel’s most beloved and popular characters, from his first appearance in The New Mutants #98 in February 1991, to movies starring Ryan Reynolds. The mercenary’s 30th anniversary has recently been celebrated and his hometown, Regina (Saskatchewan, Canada), wants to pay tribute to him in a very particular way: with a sculpture in his honor. A group of fans is beginning to gather support to carry out the project in this town in Canada.

The truth is that the character has gained greater relevance thanks to Reynolds films: the two existing installments have grossed more than $ 1.5 billion at the box office. After Deadpool has passed into the hands of Marvel Studios, fans are waiting to know more about the third part: Kevin Feige, head of the company, has promised that this film will be for people over 18 years old and be part of the MCU. At the moment, they are working on the script.
