Deathstroke | Comics

Long before he turned into the world's deadliest and most highly sought assassin, Slade Wilson had a thing for combat techniques. He joined the army in his early teens and rose to the rank of Major in a very short time. Highly impressed at his skill set, his combat trainer Captain Adeline Kane fell in love with him and trained him in guerrilla warfare.

Slade was drafted to Vietnam War while Adeline was pregnant and an event of massacring an entire village by his unit deeply scarred him. He joined a U.S. Military project for creating Meta-Human and then he secretly started operating as a mercenary. But his cover to his family is blown by the Jackal who kidnapped Slade’s son Joseph Wilson and the confrontation with his wife cost him his right eye and wearing a patch, he became Deathstroke.

He started antagonizing the Teen Titans and develops an animosity with Beast Boy by gravely injuring him. Then he used Terra as a mole inside the Titans to take them down (Judas Contract). With help from his son Jericho, Nightwing took him down. During Titans Hunt, Slade was hired by Doom Patrol to seek out the Titans.

He lost Jericho in fight but later seen controlling Rose Wilson AKA The Ravager. In a confrontation against the Justice League, Green Arrow pissed him off and Slade grew a feud on him. Slade was a member of Lex Luthor’s Secret Society and hired Nightwing to train Rose. One Year Later, Slade came back at Green Arrow, formed Titans East, started manipulating Batgirl and joined the League of Assassins to control Damian Wayne against Batman.

Before the release of the movie The Terminator, originally Slade Wilson was known as Deathstroke the Terminator, a fictional character invented for DC Comics by Marv Wolfman (Crisis on Infinite Earths, DC Universe Online – Legends) and George Perez (Final Crisis – Legion of 3 Worlds, Wonder Woman). Appearing on the second issue of The New Teen Titans monthly series in 1980, Deathstroke soon made a name for himself in the comic book industry.

Aside from his clashes with superheroes like Batman, Green Arrow, Teen Titans and Justice League, he was a key character in major events and storylines such as Family Lost, No Man's Land, Identity Crisis, Justice League Elite, Infinite Crisis, Road to Jericho, Final Crisis, Blackest Night, The Return of Bruce Wayne and Brightest Day. Before DC Comics rebooted their timeline to The New 52, Slade Wilson appeared briefly in the “Flashpoint” crossover to die at the hand of Aquaman.

Justice League of America | Comics

Whenever there is a crisis that is too big for a single superhero, there should be a team of extraordinary heroes to contain the greater threat. Thus, when the race of White Martians attempted to invade Earth, The Flash gathered a group of heroes to stop the invasion but the crowd did not form a team.

Next time, the Earth was under the threat of the Appellaxians and this time it took the combine effort of Aquaman, Batman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, Superman and Wonder Woman to take them down and the Justice League of America was born. They settled on Happy Harbor and soon faced villains like Starro the Conqueror, Weapons Master, Amazo, Lex LuthorDespero and Kanjar Ro, while recruiting Adam Strange and Green Arrow.

The Teen Titans were formed in an attempt to free the League members from the mind control of Antithesis. The League teamed up with Justice Society of America to face off their evil counterpart called Crime Syndicate of Amerika. As “Crisis on Infinite Earths” was upon them, Barry Allen sacrificed himself to halt the evil plans of Anti-Monitor and it was during “Legends” when the League knows of the dreaded Darkseid; God of Apokolips.

In the arrival of the Hyperclan with a “New World Order”, they settled in a Watchtower in moon for monitoring Earth for catastrophes and frequent super-villain attacks. Atom, Black Canary, Captain MarvelFirestormHawkman, Plastic Man, Red Tornado and Zatanna were also added to the roster over the period of time.

With the greatest superheroes that DC Comics has to offer, the Justice League was a popular roster of heroic figures having many limited series on their name. However, those limited installments being performing below expectations, DC Comics launched a new monthly ongoing series titled “JLA” featuring all the major characters of the team in 1997. Apart from having some ground-breaking storytellers for the series, artist Howard Porter (Underworld Unleashed, Trials of Shazam) and Doug Mahnke (Black Adam – The Dark Age, Final Crisis) was also assigned to give life to those pages.

Heroes of Justice

Following the 100th issue of JLA monthly series, a mini-series titled “Justice League Elite” was launched with a complete different landscape and a new roster of heroes. Following the "Flashpoint" event, Justice League gets a rebooted "Origin" for The New 52 timeline. The team is adapted to two major animated series Justice League (2001) and Justice League Unlimited (2004) for TV and in 2017, the first ever live-action Justice League movie is about to release worldwide.
