New DEATHSTROKE Ongoing Series Announced

Of course we all knew there'd have to be a new series coming.

Deathstroke is hot right now. Besides being the "character of the month" here, voted by the community, he's been racking up the hits and points all over the place. With major recent appearances in Arrow and appearances in video games such as Batman: Arkham Origins and Injustice: Gods Among Us, it seems like everyone can't get enough of the merc.

In October, we'll all be able to get even more.

It's been announced that a new series will debut in October, written and drawn by Tony Daniel.

What I find interesting and why I wanted to write (and draw) Deathstroke, is the opportunity I have to make people give a damn about his missions and motivations. Giving readers a reason to invest emotionally in this guy’s missions and stories is what I think will make a difference for this new title and is key for me and one of my main goals.

You can see more of what Tony has to say over at MTV.
