Adeline Wilson

Adeline Wilson is the ex-wife of Slade Wilson (Deathstroke the Terminator) and mother of Joseph Wilson (Jericho). A skilled military operative in her own right, she trained Slade and later became entangled in the dangerous world surrounding his mercenary career.

Introduced in the pages of Tales of the Teen Titans #50 in 1985 by the legendary Bronze Age team of Marv Wolfman and George Pérez, Adeline Wilson stepped into the DC Universe already tangled in one of comics' most compelling webs — sharing those early pages with Slade Wilson, Joseph Wilson, and the Titans themselves, including Victor Stone and Koriand'r. Her presence across Deathstroke, Tales of the Teen Titans, and even Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe speaks to a character whose role in DC lore runs deeper than her modest appearance count might suggest. With a key issue to her name and a publishing history stretching an impressive four decades to 2025, Adeline is one of those richly drawn figures from the Bronze Age who rewards the curious collector willing to dig into the corners of the DC Universe.
