Some thoughts about Deathstroke #2

Deathstroke's family is in danger once again.

Slade has been investigating who was the culprit of the kidnapping of Wintergreen and he will suddenly realize that his children are more involved than he imagined.

This series continues and it seems to be focusing on several segments at the same time.

Christopher Priest offers a new chapter where he delivers more of Slade's character in both present and past events. The story jumps from time to time about different moments of the protagonist's life and how that connects him to his current situations. You might think that this makes the pacing a bit jumpy, and it does at some points, but it compensates by having good transitions between each point to help the story flow more naturally.

The plot progresses solidly with Priest integrating more characters into the mix including quite a few interesting ones that are related to Slade.

Larry Hama handles the breakdowns while Carlo Pagulayan finishes the artwork and the result is not as good as Pagulayan going solo but it still looks solid at points.

Not bad but a bit flawed at times. Hope the next one has more natural storytelling.
