Gwenpool

Gwenpool (Gwendolyn "Gwen" Poole; colloquial: "GwenPool"; "Pink Slayer") is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. A girl from the real world transported to the Marvel Universe, her physical design originated as an amalgam of Gwen Stacy and Wade Wilson created by Chris Bachalo for a variant cover of Deadpool's Secret Secret Wars #2, which was one of twenty such variant covers published due to the popularity of Spider-Gwen from June 2015.

Marvel initially produced two stories featuring Gwenpool as a character, created by Christopher Hastings, Heather Antos and Jordan D. White: a backup story in the series Howard the Duck, and a one-shot Gwenpool Holiday Special, illustrated by Gurihiru. Following the publication of the one-shot, an ongoing series titled The Unbelievable Gwenpool by the same creative team was announced, primarily illustrated by Gurihiru (with Irene Strychalski), which started in April 2016 and concluded in April 2018. The Unbelievable Gwenpool #0, collecting Poole's appearances from Howard the Duck and the first Gwenpool Holiday Special, was later released, as well as the limited series Gwenpool Strikes Back. Beyond the Fourth Wall introduces an evil future version of Gwen, Dark GwenPool ("The Real Gwen Poole"), as the archenemy of Miles Morales, later featured as the main antagonist of the video game Marvel Duel, of which Gwen also serves as the protagonist.

Gwenpool has been described as one of Marvel's most notable and powerful female heroes. Gwenpool is one of the first openly aromantic asexual superheroes in American comic books, and the first openly asexual or aromantic character to come out in a book published by Marvel Comics.
