NFL star Aidan Hutchinson’s job is to make quarterbacks uncomfortable. But earlier this year, we partnered with @hanes to turn the tables on him. Keep an eye out for the work during Amazon’s Thursday Night Football.
As part of Marvel’s Deadpool VR game launch on Meta Quest, Deadpool sent influencers a duct taped trash bag full of crap, because that’s what those slop-lovers crave. Mmmm 🫦
This bag of garbage contained everything a VR gamer needs to put themselves inside Deadpool (yes, our campaign line is “Put yourself inside me”):
– a balled up letter insulting the recipient
– a suggestive sweatshirt they could never wear in public
– a gunpowder-scented candle for “ambiance”
– a plush katana for legal department-approved violence
– a Meta Quest doodled on by Deadpool
– and NYCC pins for something they could sell on eBay
If you’re reading this you likely weren’t influential enough to get a garbage kit. So please enjoy these premium visuals instead, then go out and put yourself inside Deadpool.
