Erik Shakari is an English comedian of Lebanese descent. He becomes popular after creating a comedy persona known as Davan, a reporter from Latveria who sports a thick moustasche and gaudy red suit. He sometimes interviews famous people, using this persona, such as representatives of the Shi'Ar cult, or S.H.I.E.L.D. representative Betty Ross. However, most of the time, he harasses ordinary people with his faux offensive views, in the hope of making them reveal their own prejudices. His film, Davan: Lessons in America Society for Purpose of Uplift Great Nation of Latveria, brings him great success.
However, the Latverian government doesn't think it's so funny, and they hire the mercenary Deadpool to kill Shakari (whom he refers to as "Ketchup", in a nod to the "Juggernaut, *****!" cartoon).
In turn, Shakari hires bounty hunter Silver Sable to protect him -- and proceeds to completely piss her off and make crude remarks about her, at every opportunity, knowing that she is under his contractual employment.
Things get even messier, when actress Millie Collins (an Ultimate version of Millie the Model) -- who was humiliated in Shakari's movie, allegedly destroying her marriage in the process -- hires Arcade to kill Shakari too.
A three-way chase across New York ensues.
The story ends with Sable warding off the other hired guns, and successfully bringing Shakari to safety. She then gets in touch with Deadpool's contact in the Latverian Ministry of External Affairs -- offering to kill Shakari herself, if they match the price they offered to Wade.
