    The first solo series of DC's best mercenary. Up until Priest's Rebirth run I would have said it's also the best but that run was something else, especially in the first half. Not that I'd rate this very far behind it, it just had some arcs that weren't as great as others. All the same, it's an awesome series, a great character analysis of who Slade Wilson is when he's not fighting kids in tights. It's got tons of action, intrigue, family drama, everything you'd want from a solo series. Plus it has probably the best Batman-Deathstroke fight ever in comics. I really recommend this to anyone who likes solo series and is a fan of this character, you get to see what makes Slade tick, great job (again) by Marv Wolfman.

    P.S.: This is a review for the whole run, not just this volume.
