Well, I do a lot of Metal Slug-style edits these days. Here's one I made earlier; just a quick edit+recolour of a Ptolemaic Special Forces sprite and voila, you have Deadpool. For those of you who don't read Marvel Comics, info on Deadpool is here:

Anyway, C&C would be welcome. More coming soon.
i read the topic title and cried tears of joy, these tears became blood shortly after seeing the post.
also this should go in sprite discussion first
For starters, the red is way too dark and he looks lumpy.
Not only is it out of style, but it needs some major changes.
Thanks for the comments guys. Any suggestions as to what I could improve?
Brighter please.
I was expecting him to be more muscular and more guns and swords too.
More contrast, more definition, better shades. Look up 'hue-shifting'.
