DC Comics Relaunch: A Much Better Look At Deathstroke & His Big Sword In Action

News

More images trickle out of SDCC. This time from DC’s Edge panel on Saturday.

We get a much better look at Slade Wilson’s mercenary costume from the DC Comics Relaunch. It seems pretty faithful, with some alterations mind you, to his original costume.

The glaring changes are how his eye is surrounded on the orange half of his mask and this giant sword his weilding. Slade has had swords before, but this new one seems bigger than big.

The image seems compelling too. I wonder who those gaunt folks are he’s hunting. Thoughts?

What do you think of Deathstroke’s DC Comics Relaunch costume as presented here?
