**Reward:**Colossus (Black)
Deadpool’s Fun Fact about Colossus: It’s kinda funny, really. You know Achilles, right? Dude from way back who was dipped in liquid Impervium (yeah, totally a thing whatever the myths say) and was invulnerable apart from his heel where someone held him to dunk the guy like a cookie into a glass of milk - Colossus is our Achilles, except it’s not his heel which is a problem. It’s Muenster cheese. That stuff is totally like his kryptonite, man (whoops, did I say kryptonite? I meant…uh…vibranium. Yeah…) and he spends HOURS in the bathroom after coming into contact with it. This lead to a brief scuffle in Wisconsin we (me, readers!) like to call the Great Cheese Fracas of '82 which ended in litigation and public shaming. Strangely enough, the cheese that Muenster is based off of, the French Munster cheese has no effect on him. Weird, right?[/spoiler]

**Reward:**Cyclops (Black)
Deadpool’s Fun Fact about Cyclops: Front man for the X-Men, but really not the guy in charge if you look closely. Scott’s a figurehead. Or is that figuremutant? Sure, why not - I’m Deadpool, and I can wordify things if I want to. Anyway, the real power behind the X-Men is an amorphous purple blob from some weird little world that lives in the subbasement. His name is Colin. He and Cyclops have a deal - Cyclops acts on Colin’s orders as Colin doesn’t exactly inspire confidence when people see him, and Colin doesn’t reveal to the other X-men that Scott has a whole bunch of “candid” photos of them that he takes while they’re sleeping. So it’s a mutually beneficial deal, really. Neat, huh?[/spoiler]

**Reward:**Hood (Black)
Deadpool’s Fun Fact about The Hood: Oh man, this guy’s up and down like a freakin’ yo-yo. He has no powers, he gets powers, he loses his powers, he gains more powers, he loses his powers…ad infinitum. Poor guy. The reason for his craptastic fortunes are fairly obscure, but your pal Deadpool here figured it out. When he was a kid, Parker Robbins was sent to Dublin for a couple of weeks with his Aunt, so that his dad could have some “Me Time in the Man Cave”, whatever that means. Auntie took little Parker around the touristy pubs and bars of Dublin, but she got distracted by a particularly fine Guinness and Parker wandered off. Finding himself alone in the city, Parker meandered about asking people to say random words because their accents were apparently hilarious. Eventually, tired, he tried to find his way back, wound up in a dirty alley and encountered a transient man in ragged green clothing and with a battered top hat. This little man asked him for a penny. Parker, sadly, had no pennies to give, and the little man got upset and jumped up and down screaming and ranting and pointed a finger at the little boy and declared him “Cursed with Fortune Mercurial”. Parker, not understanding, ran from the little homeless man and somehow found his Aunt again.
After all that, Parker has had luck that swings both ways like crazy - good luck, bad luck, always to extremes. Wow, I’m talking a lot here. But you like it. Tell me you like it. Or else.[/spoiler]

Wave 4 Invisible Woman**** (130), Beast*** (132), Storm*** (131)
**Reward:**Doctor Octopus (Green)
Deadpool’s Fun Fact about Doctor Octopus: Helllooooo Doctorpus! Yeah, he hates it when I call him that, but what’s he going to do, wave his silly metal appendages at me? It’s funny, even though he calls himself “Doctor Octopus”, the guy can’t breathe underwater. Believe me, I know, I tried to see what would happen when I held him under in the municipal swimming pool. Guy just got all mad and thrashed about, turned purple and fell asleep. Sad. He also can’t squirt ink. When I tried to make him do that, he started screaming something about not being a squid. PoTAYto, potahhhhto, right? Anyway, blood is close to ink, I guess, and stabbing him a little bit kinda worked. He also got a little upset when I tried to completely immerse him in strawberry Jello. “Something something not a jellyfish blah blah!” he screamed. Whatever, right guys?[/spoiler]

Rewards legendary token.
**Reward:**Thor (Green) + Legendary Token
Deadpool’s Fun Fact about Thor: Thor! The man they call Thor! Or the woman they call Thor! Or, looking back, the people they call Thor when there’s a whole slew of Thors across the multiverse including a GrootThor. Now that’s just silly. I’m not rambling, I promise. I’m just getting warmed up here. It’s pretty sweet, actually, and totes a superhero thing. You know how whoever wields Mjolnir turns into a Thor, right? Bigger muscles, superpowers, long flowing hair…yeah, you know. Well, that hair grows back every time the change into Thor happens. So SOMEONE, who shall remain NAMELESS has got a pretty sweet deal going by cutting off Thor’s hair when he’s asleep and selling it to wig makers for a tidy sum of cash. Now, I don’t want to point fingers at anyone coughcoughtonystarkcough but that sort of thing is just mean. I wish I’d thought of it.
