Another make or break issue for me.

I love Deathstroke, but whenever he is the star of his own book or a team book, it’s always “Meh.” I wonder if he will kill any more of his co-workers in this issue.
Ya same for me really enjoyed the first issue as a one and done but unless something really makes me want to continue with this issue I’m going to have to drop it due to my overbudget pull list
Really suprised with how much I enjoyed the first issue. Giving this one a shot.
Go Slade, Go Slade kill’em all!! When he killed those little Bastards in the last issue I was hooked!!
Just sayin’,

This book and Demon Knights were the books I was most excited for. Demon Knights was crazy awesome but Deathstroke was crazy terrible, I had a harder time with him killing those kids than I did the baby exploding in Demon Knights, I think do to execution (pun!). Deathstroke wasting the team to ensure he was the most badass assassin in the DCu just seemed wasteful as they posed zero threat to him. Dumb writing and dumber story, makes this the easiest dump for me out of the #1’s I picked up.
Simon Bisley is the man, his covers for this series are phenomenal.
Issue 2 wasn’t great. Drop.
I got the impression that this was issue #1.
am i the only that thought this issue is fantastic?
the only one*
Nope you’re not the only one, I thought it was a lot of fun.
Call me crazy but I thought this was a blast! Explosions, Blood, and lots of Shoot em up bang bang! I had no exceptions for this going into it and thought the first issue was only average with a good ending but this second issue was just one hell of a ride! I’ll be sticking this one out for the first arc at least!
I want to looooooove this book. Issue 2 for me wasn’t great. I am giving it at least 6 issues. Call me crazy but I want some strong character development.
I’m in the same boat. I really want to like this book, but it’s rubbish. And so begins the trimming of The New 52 for me.
Is it just me or does one of the characters in the bar scene look like Lara Croft…
I get how DC wants this to be an action-packed, bad-ass comic — which isn’t a bad thing — but I hope we get some character-driven beats with Slade, as well.
The Die Hard 4 of comic books. I had given this book a 0% chance of being good, but I LOVE IT!
It’s not going to be for everyone, but as a throw away action title it’s perfect at being what it’s supposed to be.
I enjoyed the shit out of this book. I never really cared for Deathstroke as a character, and I still don’t necessarily, but I’m enjoying the art and the mayhem and the fact that there’s not depth of character. Just bloody mayhem. I don’t know how long it’ll last, but if it stays as action packed and inventively, unapologetically bloody, I’m sticking with it.
