The Latest Poster From ONCE UPON A DEADPOOL Seems To Parody a Painting of Christ Used By The LDS Church

It turns out that the latest poster that was released for Once Upon A Deadpool that features Deadpool in heaven hanging out with his angelic friends, might be a parody of a painting of Jesus Christ that is widely used by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

The original painting was created by artist Harry Anderson, who was a a Seventh-day Adventist. The painting is called “Second Coming”, which makes sense because this new PG-13 version of Deadpool 2 is the second coming of the film!

I imagine that this was deliberately done, after some of the other promotional Deadpool material has parodied works of Norman Rockwell and Bob Ross. I personally think it’s pretty funny!
