"Friends die, family disappoints, but a legacy... That lives forever." Slade Wilson is the best mercenary in the DCU, and he’s been doing this a long time. Some might say too long. But they’ll learn: Never turn your back on Deathstroke the Terminator. He won’t quit, no matter how high the stakes. Kyle Higgins (BATMAN: GATES OF GOTHAM) and Joe Bennett (TEEN TITANS) team up to bring you the finest in mayhem and gore.

The DCU’s most wanted man stars in his own series! Cole Cash is a charming grifter few can resist. And yet he’s about to be branded a serial killer when he begins hunting and exterminating inhuman creatures hidden in human form – creatures only he can see! Can the biggest sweet talker of all time talk his way out of this one when even his brother thinks he’s gone over the edge?

Frankenstein is part of a network of strange beings who work for an even stranger government organization: The Super Human Advanced Defense Executive! But can he protect the world from threats even more horrifying than himself? And since he’s vilified for who and what he is, will he even want to take on this mission?

I hate Deathstroke's new look. Definitely not not feeling the whole armored look on him. wish they made his outfit look more akin to the one from DC Universe Online.....

I was so bored/confused by the Grifter comic that it ceased to exist to me.

Why do I suspect the Wetworks team are going to be agents of S.H.A.D.E. as well?

@N- Your "lol" goes to Marvel for copying DC in the first place. I mean really? Deadpool= Deathstroke. Wade Wilson= Slade Wilson.

@DeadPOoly01- It's "Grifter" not "Gritted"

LP4 - 9/13/2011, 10:34 AM
Wow @DeadPOolyo01- You reported me for stating that Deadpool is a copy of Deathstroke? Seriously?

What are you? 10 years old?

Oh and being the little crybaby you are you'll report me for that i bet. Go ahead, make my day.

Looks pretty badass, but I prefered how Slade looked in the 'Teen Titans' show, this just looks too complicated n odd

You couldn't give me Hawk and Dove for wiping my bumbum. Liefeld should get his old job back at Arby's.

I love how "DeadPOoly01" still screwed up the name "Grifter" even after he tried to correct it.

Please "DeadPOoly01" stop thinking too hard, you might hurt yourself.

Really digging the variety of art styles. Kudos to DC for not making everything look like an average comic page

Deathstroke looks OK, but why is it that everyone suddenly has scallops on their arms or legs like Batman... I mean now it's not just Batman, it's Batgirl, Deathstroke, I think Robin and Nightwing have them, Red Robin, Batwoman, Batmite... even [frick]ing Aquaman has them!
Technoman
Technoman - 9/13/2011, 12:19 PM
@LP4: at least Deadpool to Deathstroke was purposeful and a parody, unlike say, Max Mercury and Quicksilver.

AC1 - 9/13/2011, 12:22 PM
And as for Frankenstein Agent of Shade... isnt that just a mix of the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Hellboy? Instead of an uber muscular Devil, you have an uber muscular Reanimated corpse composed of bits of other corpses. They have the same fish guy in the team and everything!
