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.
