Deathstroke #21

Christopher Priest continues his long form story that ties in everything we've seen before and still pushes everything forward in such a kick ass way.  The art and story are just great and I can't recommend this series enough. Read Full Review

The fun will truly be in seeing how quickly it all comes undone and if Slade's good intentions will doom everyone around him as usual. Read Full Review

A good first issue that introduces the members of a brand new team. Read Full Review

Every person on the creative team does their job pitch perfectly and it shows in the characters and the directions they're going. Despite the issue being one final preparation before ushering in the new era by setting the characters up and getting into who they are and what they mean to Deathstroke, it's still a great read!

As long as Defiance stays a part of the Deathstroke series, I think that it'll go far. On its own though"well, I need to see more of the group in action before I can comment on that. Regardless, Deathstroke #21 is a promising start. Read Full Review

If you've been following the Deathstroke series by Priest then you'll definitely enjoy what Priest has written here. This team might have good intentions, but it's a ticking bomb that's only going to explode with time. My only hope is that Slade can escape the fallout! Read Full Review

If youre looking for a good jumping-on point for Deathstroke,this is it. Its a great exploration of what happens when an unrepentant bad guy attempts to break good so to speak, as well as a delightfully toppling of whats sure to be a tragic set of dominos. So, game on for this new era of Deathstroke,and I look forward to seeing where it goes next. Read Full Review

This is the first Deathstroke book i've enjoyed in a while. There wasn't as many breakups so the narrative was easier to follow. There was one line that seemed out of place and did take me out of the story for a moment. This book was short and sweet and we get a reintroduction into the cast that will be gracing the pages for the next couple months. For the first time in a while, I find myself caring about Deathstroke. Read Full Review

Deogenes Neves is an unknown to me but he seems ready for the big leagues. I dont always like the way he draws faces though, but everything else is dynamic and at the level established by prior artists on this series. Last question. Why is this series priced at $3.99 when it has the same page count as cheaper series? Read Full Review

Priest sure loves taking his story slow. In some way I admire it, taking the time to give characters time to flesh themselves out and establish new plot threads that will come into play later. But I just wish this issue had a little more substance. There are a few standout scenes, but really this issue just serves to bolster the next few.
