Question: are deadpool and deathstroke the same?
Answer: DC Is Giving the Deadpool Inspiration His Own Movie. Ten years before Fabian Nicieza and Rob Liefeld created Deadpool (aka Wade Wilson) at Marvel Comics, DC Comics had created Deathstroke (aka Slade Wilson). Indeed, Nicieza and Liefeld intentionally ripped off Deathstroke, one of their favorite villains.
