Pickpick

Deathstroke is not a character I typically like or care about, but Christopher Priest‘s bleak, twisty take definitely has its moments. At times the plotting is so twist-dense that I wasn‘t even sure why some things were happening, but by and large this is a grim take on supervillainy that works thanks to Priest‘s quick thinking. The art is serviceable, but I think a ,ore grounded art team would serve the story better.
