The Deathstroke mini is firing on all cylinders. It
doesn’t have many cylinders to fire on but that has its simple charm. In
this issue, Aquaman is still very angry at something for some reason.
He and Ocean Master kill a bunch of Deathstroke’s crew with tridents so
there’s that going on. We’re not exactly sure what this has to do with
the story other than it just sort of happened. It’s a bloody fun
time and then it’s over. The rest of the story has more to offer in
terms of subtlety. The art duties are relayed and that’s nominally
distracting but once I settled in the new look I was able to enjoy the
interesting dynamics within this ragtag crew of criminals. I’d like to
see this developed in the future (oh yeah that’s right,
never mind then). By issue’s end Deathstroke’s ship is ambushed. Just
how several gigantic oil tankers sneak up on Deathstroke in the middle
of a flat ocean I’m not sure. But hey, explosions!

Story: 3 - Good
Art: 4 - Very Good
