Some thoughts about Deathstroke #45

Who is the new Deathstroke?

The death of Slade has caused big repercussion in both his children and each of them will deal with it in the best and worst ways.

This new arc continues and is delivering solid developments.

Christopher Priest offers a new installment where he plays with the ramifications of the death of Slade. One could say that Priest has been planning this for a long time considering how much he has built up Rose as the successor of Slade in the mantle of Deathstroke and so this comes like a pretty logical next step but as always, Priest explores how complex the whole scenario is and how this might be affecting Rose mentally. This leads to an encounter with Shado and, considering what Emiko did, her presence makes sense too.

Jericho's role might be even more complicated due that he is in a new relationship but he just can't forget his past with Slade nor his new importance in the plans of the Legion of Doom which I think is building him up too as a possible antagonist in the future.

Fernando Pasarin handles the art and is pretty good looking thanks to the expressive characters and clear storytelling.

Strong issue, hope things continue this way.
