    Can I say BEAST?

    Deathstroke is one badass dude! I knew he was cool and loved killing people but wow, this is great! You don't have to ever worry about Deathstroke not finishing the job.

    The Good: Can't we all say that we've ben waiting for a character like this for a while now? He will kill anyone, no matter who or what they are. If it's his job then consider it done. Let me also just say that the cover art is AMAZING! That is really what brought me to this issue. Simon did a fantastic job with this.

    The Bad: It seamed a little to easy for Deathstroke. We want some competition here. I know it's only the first issue, that's why it isn't really affecting my rating. But in the future I would like to see some better competition.

    Overall: 4.5 / 5 Would recommend to anyone who wants a badass book. Great start for Deathstroke.
