Deathstroke #28

Kicking off the "Chinatown" arc in 2018, this issue drops Deathstroke into a chaotic, sprawling brawl set against a vivid red-and-gold backdrop evoking Chinese imagery — and the cover tagline makes clear that New Super-Man has arrived in town, promising all-out war. Ryan Sook's cover art packs the frame with Deathstroke firing an assault rifle while clashing blades with a sword-wielding opponent, as New Super-Man — his chest symbol blazing with energy — joins the fray alongside additional armored figures. With writer Christopher Priest at the helm and the promise of a heavyweight collision between Slade Wilson and a Superman-level powerhouse, this is a charged opening chapter you won't want to skip.
