Famous Marvel anti-hero wants to be SFU’s newest mascot

[BURNABY] – SFU Burnaby recently became a battlefield between SFU’s very own McFogg the Dog and Marvel anti-hero Deadpool. The two engaged in a verbal dispute, with Deadpool expressing his desire to become the school’s newest mascot. Tensions escalated when McFogg argued that Deadpool was not qualified enough for the role. Deadpool responded in kind, saying that he should be the new mascot because he’s more Canadian than McFogg. After a tense argument, a fight became imminent. Campus security came and separated the two. Surprisingly enough, Deadpool backed off, only to say that he needed to hurry back to his movie before the post-credit scene began.
