He comes to in the hospital, finds out his girlfriend (or wife, I forget) died in the accident, tries to kill himself, survives the impact, and completely loses it. He buys a harelquin costume and a bubble gun and goes around using his powers to cause insanity to make people go nuts and tells everyone they should go cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs because life's pointless. He uses the bubble gun so people think that's what's causing people to go insane.

Cap stops him, then later he runs into Ghost Rider, who used his Penance Stare on him and he actually liked it because he actually felt pain.

EDIT: It's not a harlequin costume, but it was bright purple and yellow.

That's a good rundown on Madcap. According to the internet he became absorbed into Deadpool in a retcon where Thor burnt them both to ash at once and they reformed into one Deadpool, apparently a similar incident separated them.
