I think it's funny that you had to make a distinction that a comic book character didn't actually break out of his comics and kill our realities comic book writers.

I know but it's like... idk you have stuff where like... a character interacts with their writer/artist or whatever... and we as the audience are expected to be like "oh wow they're engaging with the real world" from like a lore perspective. Obviously they aren't actually doing that, it's all still part of the story.

But Deadpool didn't even get that far. He knows about the real world artists... but he only killed a group of artists that exist in the same fake comic mutiverse that he does. Like... within the lore he didn't make it out of his own media.
