DC Comics has announced a new ongoing series starring Slade Wilson aka Deathstroke, written and drawn by Tony S. Daniel, launching in October.
Daniel (Superman/Wonder Woman, Detective Comics) will be joined by co-artist Sandu Florea (Detective Comics, Elektra) for the monthly series, which will chronicle the adventures of the antihero assassin. The storied villain has traveled the DC Universe as a mercenary-for-hire, as well as spending time as a member of Team 7 and being recruited for the Suicide Squad. The character has appeared on Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, the Teen Titans and Young Justice animated series, and was a main antagonist on Arrow.
The series will premiere on October 22nd, and will have a variant cover by Andrea Sorrentino, according to MTV. DC also showed off this planned 6" resin bust of Deathstroke in his "New 52" costume, which will release in January 2015 at an unannounced MSRP. The bust is designed by Jim Lee, sculpted by Joe Menna and painted by Jason Wires.
