DEADPOOL - POP Plus N° 1493 - Deadpool As Long John Silver

This collectable vinyl figurine revisits the madcap world of Marvel’s most famous anti-hero, released by Funko as part of its Pop! Plus range dedicated to iconic characters with reimagined visual and thematic features. Made entirely from PVC, it depicts the irreverent, loud-mouthed mercenary dressed as the legendary pirate Long John Silver, ready to take centre stage in your display cabinet with a touch of adventure and literary fantasy.

Created by Fabian Nicieza and Rob Liefeld, Deadpool (Wade Wilson) is a mercenary with a superhuman accelerated healing factor and an unfortunate tendency to break the fourth wall to address the audience directly. No stranger to absurd disguises and parodies of all kinds, he draws direct inspiration here from a classic of adventure literature: Robert Louis Stevenson’s* TreasureIsland*. In this novel, Long John Silver is a charismatic and calculating one-legged pirate, the ship’s cook aboard the Hispaniola, who has become one of pop culture’s most famous buccaneers. This Funko Pop! figurine perfectly captures Deadpool’s provocative spirit with a touch of mockery, sporting the typical attributes of Stevenson’s pirate whilst retaining his characteristic red and black costume. An essential must-have for all comic book enthusiasts keen to add an original and themed touch to their Marvel collection.
