Deathstroke, the Terminator #14

Kicking off the "Total Chaos" crossover saga, this 1992 DC issue puts Deathstroke front and center in a dynamic street-level brawl, his orange-and-blue armor unmistakable as he clashes with a similarly costumed adversary while other figures charge into the fray behind them. Mike Zeck's cover work crackles with kinetic energy, capturing the promise of the tagline that the Titans Universe is about to change forever. With Marv Wolfman writing and Art Nichols and Will Blyberg handling interior art, "Child's Play" looks to be a compelling opening chapter to what DC is billing as a saga that starts right here.
