Heretic pope is a contradiction in terms. If he is a manifest heretic then he loses membership in the Catholic Church and therefore, not Pope.

I am not sure that is so. Being bishop, like being priest, inscribes an indelible mark on the soul, and what person or organization can you name which can depose the Bishop of Rome?

Bingo
