Deathstroke #19

Part 3 of "The Lazarus Contract" finds Deathstroke at the center of a fierce multi-front clash, as the cover by Mike McKone depicts Slade Wilson — sword blazing with energy — locked in combat against a dark-cloaked, glowing-eyed figure while Starfire surges forward on his left wreathed in green energy and an arrow-bearing young combatant braces on his right amid swirling pink-purple power. The collision of forces across that single image makes it clear that this DC Universe Rebirth crossover is pulling in characters from across the Titans world in spectacular fashion. Written by the combined talents of Priest, Dan Abnett, and Benjamin Percy, this 2017 issue promises the kind of sprawling, high-stakes storytelling that only a crossover event can deliver.
