Deadpool's Daughter Gets the Perfect Mentor: Taskmaster!
Deadpool's daughter, Ellie Camacho, is on her way to becoming a superhero, but she needs the right training. Who better to train her than Taskmaster, the notorious mercenary with a photographic memory?
In Deadpool #3, Taskmaster meets Ellie and is immediately impressed by her potential. He sees that her visual learning skills are a superpower in their own right. Ellie, who can build a GPS teleporter after watching a tutorial video, is a natural for Taskmaster's teaching style.
Taskmaster: From Villain to Teacher
Taskmaster is no stranger to the Marvel universe. He first appeared in The Avengers #195 back in 1980. His ability to perfectly copy anyone's movements and skills has made him a formidable villain, but he has also been a hired gun for Deadpool. Recently, Taskmaster has been looking for a change of pace, and training Ellie might be just what he needs.
Taskmaster's stock has been declining in recent years. He's become a bit of a C-lister. But becoming a mentor to Ellie could give him a new purpose and boost his reputation in the Marvel Universe.
Why Taskmaster is the Perfect Teacher for Ellie
- He's a master of skills: As someone who can perfectly replicate skills by watching them, Taskmaster is the perfect candidate to teach someone else.
- He can share his knowledge and others': Not only can Taskmaster pass on his natural abilities to someone else, but he can also copy someone else's skills and pass those down as well.
- He offers something new: Taskmaster's mentorship of Ellie offers something new for him to do, besides being just another stepping stone for heroes.
Training Deadpool's daughter could be the first step to a brighter future for Taskmaster. It could be the perfect transition for him from villain to teacher.
