In the desert sands of Egypt, Deadpool does what even Captain America in a Landau, Luckman and Lake battle suit can't: he accepts his destiny as a hero, steps up to the plate and saves the universe from a cosmic messiah who offers peace at the price of giving up free will and change. Dixon goes nuts in the aftermath and Zoe takes over Landau, Luckman, and Lake as she writes Deadpool off as a loss.
