Deathstroke Returns to the New 52
Deathstroke was one of the first series to get cut from the New 52 line up. This year the comic book character has hit mainstream popularity with Manu Bennet's portrayal of the character on the CW television show
Arrow.
DC announced this week that Deathstroke will be returning in his own ongoing series again this October, which probably means we will learn more about the series during New York Comic Con. Tony S. Daniel will be the writer and artist on the title. Sandu Florea is also slatted to do the artwork for the series. Tony S. Daniel currently does the artwork on
Wonder Woman/Superman and recently wrote some issues of
Action Comics.
I am personally very excited about this announcement. Slade Wilson deserves a second chance with a great creative team, and I can't think of anyone better than Tony S. Daniel.
