THE BOUNTY IS OUT ON SLADE WILSON! It’s said there is no honor among thieves. But there is a code among killers. Slade Wilson wrote the code. And now he’s in Deadshot’s and Deathblow’s crosshairs for breaking its first rule!
DC has announced Next Level: One Shot #1, a brand‑new 48‑page DC All In special from writer Gerry Duggan, artist Fernando Blanco, and letterer Buddy Beaudoin, spotlighting the one and only Deadshot in a high‑stakes mission that pushes DC Next Level toward its explosive future.
In Next Level: One Shot, DC’s deadliest assassin goes to the Next Level and uncovers a conspiracy that will change everything.

Deathstroke: The Terminator #2
(w) Tony Fleecs (a) Carmine Di Giandomenico
Someone’s taken everything from Deathstroke, and hell hath no fury like an assassin scorned! He’s on the road to find a mysterious client, but it won’t be easy. He’s lost his money, his resources, his family, and his best friend and moral compass. What happens when the world’s most terrifying assassin has nothing left to lose?
Soldier-turned-superhuman assassin for hire Slade Wilson has made hundreds of enemies in his day, and now one of them is taking his world apart piece by piece. The hit is out on Deathstroke as he evolves into his purest form…a terminator out for revenge and ready to kill anyone who stands in his way. Deathstroke: The Terminator #1 kicks off a tale of revenge in a debut that feels like 90s action films.
Do you remember 90s action films with needlessly complicated plots that lead to revenge? Not today’s simple, they killed my dog, but the type that involved tricking the target into doing something then delivering a twist as the mission ends? That’s what Deathstroke: The Terminator #1 feels like as Slade is sent on a mission from a client which of course has a twist at the end. Written by Tony Fleecs, the debut issue isn’t bad, it feels like summer popcorn action where you can turn off your brain and just enjoy the destruction. It’s The Expendables as a recent example though the revenge plot feels much more Tango & Cash. That includes action sequences that are so silly in logic, they’re fun, and a mission that’s both insane and simple in its focus, stop a whistleblower.
The insanity’s art is brought together by Carmine Di Giandomenico on pencils, Ivan Plascencia on color, and lettering by Wes Abbot. The team has created visuals that celebrate that action and craziness which includes riding a van through the air as it’s used as a battering ram/explosive distraction. It’s an entrance to catch attention and doesn’t know the word subtle. That feels like a solid description of the entire comic, subtlety isn’t even a thing. This is a bombastic comic in story and visuals that’s just all out action fun.
Deathstroke: The Terminator #1 isn’t a bad comic. If you enjoy those types of action films where you roll with it and judge it on the sequences as opposed to the details, you’ll be fine. There’s a simplicity in the craziness and action where it just goes all out. It knows what it is and has no shame in delivering exactly that.
