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 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.
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.
