Deathstroke #13

Deathstroke finds himself in serious trouble on the cover of this December 2012 New 52 entry, as the armored mercenary is caught mid-brawl against the masked, gold-helmeted Deadborn amid a storm of debris and destruction. The bold cover tagline — "Ambushed by Deadborn!" — perfectly captures the brutal, chaotic energy that penciler Eduardo Pansica and inker Mariah Benes bring to this collision of heavy hitters. With writers Rob Liefeld and Joshua Williamson steering "The Most Dangerous Game," this issue promises the kind of high-stakes confrontation that makes Slade Wilson one of DC's most compelling anti-heroes.
