## Character Information

### **Portrayed by**

Esai Morales (*Titans*)
Manu Bennett (*Arrow*)

**Slade Joseph Wilson** (also known as **Deathstroke**) is a major villain of the DC Universe. He is one of the main antagonists and occasional anti-villain in the *Teen Titans* franchise. Deathstroke is the arch-enemy of Nightwing, Robin and the other Titans, and has, on occasion, fought their mentors the Justice League, notably Batman and Green Arrow.

## Publication History

Slade was simply introduced as "Deathstroke the Terminator" who was created by Marv Wolfman and George Pérez, and made his first appearance in The New Teen Titans #2 in December 1980.

Slade became a popular character within the comics, granted his own solo series in 1991, with a total of sixty five issues.

Since 1984, he was no longer called "The Terminator" since the franchise of the same name took off. However, the title seems to have been popularized, as it resurfaced in *Justice League Elite.*

## Adaptations

### Teen Titans

Main article: Slade (Teen Titans)
His *Teen Titans* incarnation was voiced by Ron Perlman. However, he is more of a manipulative chessmaster than an assassin and gun for hire.

### Arrowverse

Main article: Slade Wilson (Arrowverse)
His Arrowverse incarnation is portrayed by Manu Bennett, who also portrayed Azog the Defiler from *The Hobbit* film trilogy. However, unlike most adaptations of the series, Slade was portrayed more of an anti-hero and only becomes villainous upon being given a vaccination by Shado and Oliver Queen in a desperation to save their friend, thus driving him insane. He was the main antagonist of the series' second season.

### DC Animated Movie Universe

Main article: Deathstroke (DC Animated Movie Universe)

This version blames the Titans for the death of his son Jericho, whose consciousness inhabitated his father's mind. Deathstroke is killed in the final act of Season 2 by his daughter, Rose Wilson with the aid of Nightwing.
