Deathstroke #1 preview

Deathstroke #1 preview

Time for Mr. Stroke

...

dat disguise

Daww

Looks like all the Grant and Jericho stuff is canon?

Haha time for nuclear big boss

...

And the variant

Sorry family, daddy's gotta go kick some ass.

Pfffftttt

Clock King what the fuck are even your powers

I can only now read this with a heavy Boston accent for stroke

I read Deathstroke with Snake voice (like MGS3 Snake)

I missed Priest's convoluted plots of characters double-crossing each other.

This is looking good.

Hosun was the hacker in the Rebirth issue, I think

Book will be heavy with flashbacks, won't it.

Dude clocks, what's not to get?

yes, priest likes to do that sometimes

and he said he's going to be streamlining the character since the new 52 version was so bad and got rebooted like 2 times before rebirth, so flashbacks will help with that

I have no idea what the fuck is going on.

>slade holding a babby
muh dick

No problem with that. Slade's family does need some streamlining.

Ginger Wintergreen?

I had a pajama that looked like clock king's tights.

Nope. Ocelot

>tourtured slade

This looks like the start of a retro gay porn video

Good, Slade and Wintergreen were fairly gay back in the day

It'll be even gayer with all this MGS shit

> Asian boytoy
> Wintergreen
Are we gonna get Bistroke?

Panstroke

I hope so

I remember reading Addie saying to Windergreen "You loved him more than I did" or something like that.

I really don't know if older writers were aware that their books had a lot of homoerotic subtext. I mean Claremont sure was, don't know about the others.

Wolfman was the one who did this shit and QUICK JOEY GET INSIDE ME so he had to have known

Alright faggots, give me top 3 Priest recommendations. I like his writing style, it looks like this guy did the "cinematic" before Ellis made a meme out of it.
Also does art get better in his Black Panther run? I read first issue and wasn't sure if I liked the art.

Yeah Wolfman had to have been aware.

I always read him in Ron Perlman's voice.

>protecting your best friend against military is gay now

and then I think Wolfman made it clear in the Convergence retro book he wrote

Quantum and Woody (the original, not the reboot)

The Ray 29 issues.

There was also that time Slade tricked Wintergreen to give him a mouth to mouth.

Slade looks like Jericho if he decided to become a 70s pornstar

Why kill himself without disposing the photo first?
Why kill himself at all?

This one?

Watching your bro bathe is a little gay

Black Panther and Deadpool?

Because he knows the photos are out there and going to be distributed.

Based Priest.

Kinda. Art for BP is the low point but I think it eventually gets better.

What expression is this trying to convey

here

So when are Slade and Wintergreen gonna fuck?

not soon enough

>implying they haven't already

it'd be cool if this was Gabriel Walker and he leveled up to Chronos. I miss Chronos.

We haven't seen it so it hasn't happened

"It's over"

Is Slade still a vietnam vet?

Is shipping faggotry going to be enough to keep this book afloat twice monthly?

Didn't his hair used to be black?

No. He was blonde in NTT flashbacks, Tony Daniel just gave him black hair for whatever reason

I will try my best

Maybe? It works for Dick

Well, I'll support it the most I can.

When did he lost his eye?

Slade is best husbando

From the Rebirth issue, he seems like the worst husbando. Those poor kids.

He is hot though.

No you goof

But he went to rescue Wintergreen, that's being a good husbando

He just wouldn't be a good fatheru

Ok, I have to say this. Deathstroke, in this comic at least, has a certain feel and style to it, that of mercenaries, war, soldiers etc. Settings like wartorn African nations, the wild and characters like soldiers, mercs and warlords.
Clock King showing up in full spandex supervillain get up looks so out of place compared to everything else.

why does anyone like this ginormous asshole?

I imagine that's the point.

In trunks, even. Holy shit, is his design outdated.

his wife shot him in the eye for being a dick to his son

>serious gritty war setting, mercenaries, soldiers
>suddenly, really fucking weird shit
Sounds very Metal Gear to me.

Must be. It wouldn't be hard to make him tacticool like everyone else. Even BTAS put him in a normal suit. He stands out like a sore thumb.

it's amazing, he's my husbando now

Even Metal Gear kept consistent designs.

bump

It's fitting to me. Reminds you that you're still reading a DCU book.

After Rising and V, no

He's young now? What is he reversing his age to others or something?

He seemed kind of chill about apparently dying last issue so I wouldn't be surprised if it's reincarnation or something.

He can probably make himself whatever age he wants, and was just an old man last issue to make Slade think he was dying.

And he can apparently turn into gay porn Bob Ross.

This is great and all, but I really just wanna find out how much Slade and Dick hate each other in the Rebirth universe.

Jericho is still alive. So is Rose. Grant is dead, right?
What else got fixed in the New 52?

Did Starfire still kill Adeline?
Did Deathstroke bomb Bludhaven?
What about the time Cheshire nuked Qurac?
Did Titans Hunt happen?
Is Nightwing Rose's senpai again?

These are the things I need to know. Plz Priest.

all i need to know is if this joey is gay too

Old school Joey was straight. They drew him with a different girl every other issue.

Wolfman had him say he was gay in the Convergence mini

Too bad, Wolfman wanted him to be gay from day one and finally got his wish to fix it.

STANDING

Oh really? I didn't read it because most of Convergence was a dumpster fire. Interesting. Did they mention why he was closeted for so long? I mean, he even had that will-they/won't-they thing with Raven up till his death.

It was the 80s, he's mute. He doesn't need a reason.

>Is Nightwing Rose's senpai again?
Yes

>Did Deathstroke bomb Bludhaven?
No

priest probably did enough research and saw that joey was originally meant to be gay
and with kole being literally who cares and raven being perpetually 16, his main superhero love interests are dead to him
he could totally do it if he wanted

Kole is friendzoned and totally okay with it, even better.

Because he's a sexy ginormous asshole.

this also huge assholes and bad people can be fun to read about as long as the work doesn't pretend they aren't, and Priest isn't shying away from what a monster Slade is

this
Just look at the page with him and his babby
