Deadpool vs. Black Knight
Click through to all sizes to bigify.
Panel from Deadpool #2, "Operation: That Wacky Doctor's Game!" Written by Joe Kelly, pencils by Ed McGuinness, inks by Nathan Massengill. Like Wade points out, Taskmaster would be glaringly different the next couple times he shows up: first in Priest's run, as part of a try-out for the Frightful Four, then as more of a rival/partner under Gail Simone at the end of the book and in Agent X.

Does the Ebony Blade just cut through other swords?  I can't remember.
In the last panel, Deadpool's riding the Black Knight's flying horse thing, that he used a few times in Avengers, apparently when his regular winged horse was either loaned out to Valkyrie or in the shop. Hawkeye and Taskmaster both got those with their figures, and I had the damnedest time trying to get the Knight on one. Hell, even Deadpool was a tough fit there. Weird.

I am assuming that the Black Knight's little move on Wade is why later suits of armor had codpieces.

History in the making!
