Through religious metaphors and allusions to the legitimate world around us, the author has developed a piece to be studied in today’s society.

If you were given a piece of every superhero’s powers known to man, which powers would make you the most superior? Deadpool (of the Marvel Universe) can be classified as the most powerful of all mutants, whereas, Deathstroke (of the DC universe) makes it to the top 5 list of strongest metahumans in his own reality. Both characters were products of a scientific lab gone wrong. If both of their universes were to merge, who would triumph in a battle between these two iconic characters? Deadpool and
