Fictional character biography

Dogpool is from Earth-103173, a universe in the Marvel Multiverse.[6] In this universe, Wilson the dog was subjected to animal testing by a cosmetics company called Babeline in a project called Mascara-X, which sought to create a product that would grant customers eternal youth. After being horribly mutated by the experiments, he was left in a dumpster to die, but eventually escaped and was recruited by a circus that saw potential in his regenerative abilities.

There, he performed death-defying tricks and adopted the name "Deadpool". He would eventually be rescued by the Deadpool of Earth-616 and join the Deadpool Corps, a superhero team composed of various versions of Deadpool from different universes. Dogpool became close friends with Kidpool, a child version of Deadpool, but would eventually be killed by an evil version of Deadpool.[1][2][7][8]
