Biography

Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay

He was seen in a flashback being responsible for the death of Bronze Tiger's fiancée.

Son of Batman

Originally a member of the League of Shadows, Deathstroke was Ra's al Ghul's right-hand man and future successor until his actions deemed him unworthy in Ra's' eyes.

Feeling denied of his right as Ra's successor, Deathstroke staged as coup d'état to kill Ra's and take his power. After defeating Ra's, Damian Wayne appeared to protect his grandfather, managing to stab Deathstroke's right eye. After escaping with help from Ubu, Deathstroke went to Kirk Langstrom to work on a project initiated by Ra's al Ghul to use Langstrom's Man-Bat gene splicing formulas on members of the League. He kidnapped Langstrom's family and Talia as insurance against Langstrom and Damian. Later, Deathstroke shot Talia and engaged in combat with Batman briefly, but was quickly defeated, causing him to flee. Batman resuscitated Talia in a Lazarus Pit, and Deathstroke and Damian, as Robin, engaged in a fight which ended with Deathstroke defeated and sinking to depth of the seas, presumably deceased.

Teen Titans: The Judas Contract

Slade survived using Lazarus Pits which enhanced his physical strength. He went to a village where he found a young girl who had been accused of being a witch. After saving the girl, he was hired by H.I.V.E to capture the Teen Titans. He accepted the contract, wanting to get revenge upon Damian for stopping him from taking over the League of Assassins, something he viewed as his right. He used Terra to infiltrate the Titans, placing her as an inside agent to learn everything she could about them.

After a year, Deathstroke made his move, he alerted a H.I.V.E base about the Titans' arrival allowing the leaders to escape. He was later contacted by Brother Blood who told him to move up the time table by a week. Terra came to Deathstroke and told him that Robin was suspicious of her. Deathstroke agreed to deal with him.

When Robin followed Terra, he was confronted by Deathstroke who engaged him in a fight in which Deathstroke defeated Robin effortlessly however Robin managed to gain the upper hand due to Deathstrokes overconfidence pinning Slades arm but was knocked off by Terra who then entrapped him. Later, Deathstroke confronted Robin again who tried to bait him. Deathstroke was angered by this and beat Robin who tried to make Deathstroke free him. Deathstroke didn't fall for Robin's bait and left him tied up. Slade left Robin telling him to be a good boy.

Deathstroke captured all the Titans except for Nightwing who managed to escape and Raven who was captured by Terra instead. Deathstroke told Terra that it was alright to have feelings for people she's spent a year undercover with. The machine that had been built to transfer the Titans' power to Brother Blood was incomplete because it needed one more person so Deathstroke offered Terra. Brother Blood paid Slade who uttered "Hallelujah". Brother Blood activated the machine and gained the Titans' powers. Nightwing freed the Titans who engaged Brother Blood except for Nightwing and Robin who fought Deathstroke. As Deathstroke was about to deliver a fatal blow to Nightwing he was attacked by Terra. Terra defeated Deathstroke who said "so long kid" before being buried under a pile of rocks seemingly killing him.
