~ Deadpool to Cassidy |
Cassidy first appeared along with his gang of thugs when Firefist and Deadpool were imprisoned in the Ice Box where he looked on at Wade and Russell with his lackeys. The following day he immediately antagonized the two, having his two henchmen beating Firefist while Tom himself stabbed Deadpool's hand with a pen which Russell attempted to shank one of Tom's lackeys with and then told Russell that he picked the wrong side to take in the prison before triumphantly standing on the table in a grand pose showing himself as the toughest prisoner in the Ice Box. Cassidy then appeared when Cable invaded the prison in search of Russell where he fled from his cell but later was forced into returning.
Cassidy's next appearance was when he broke into a fight with another prisoner over his pudding attracting the attention of several guards which prompted Russell to flee from the hall in order to make friends with Juggernaut.
Cassidy's final appearance was when Cable attacked the transfer truck from the Ice Box to a higher security prison, he laughed sadistically at the fight between Deadpool and Cable before being accidentally shot in the head by Cable, killing him. Deadpool would go on to constantly joke about this event to Cable calling it racism and prejudice much to the latter's annoyance.
