Comic Book Question of the Week VOTING: Favorite Deathstroke Costume

Whoever signed off on that ponytail for Young Justice should be shamed.

Hmm... A little hard to choose between Injustice and Arkham Origins, but I'll have to go for the latter.

N52

Agreed. It was a bit of an eyesore on an otherwise decent outfit.

I like the YJ version

N52 , i like the look and he looks more mercenary than super villain . which is true to his character . also no more wade or slade comparisons

Arkham origins for me.

not the one with his junk hanging out (pre new 52 pic). lol. i choose teen titans, though i love the new 52 and arrow one as well.

That Arrow Deathstroke costume looks so clunky..... It has to be a pain in the ass to move around in that thing.

Deathstroke's role may have been lackluster in Son of Batman, but I really liked his design. Might even buy the figure at some point.

Teen Titans.

I voted for the Teen Titans animated version. It was my first exposure to the character. I remember thinking how scary he was, due in part to Ron Perlman of course. Did he ever remove his mask? The whole time I didn't know who or what he was. To be honest when I started picking up Teen Titans books a few years later I was a little upset to find out he was human. For that reason the Teen Titans animated version will always be my favorite.

I loved his new 52 costume in the last arc, so I picked that. His Injustice costume and Teen Titans suit are a close second and third.

Arkham Origins costume. Easy day.

I'm starting to think it wasn't Deathstroke on TT. His eye is on the wrong side, plus i've heard a crazy fan theory that it was actually Batman preparing the next generation of heroes

New 52, easy.

NEW 52.

Arrow. Realistic.

Young Justice version.

Arkham Origins.

wow a pole about someone with no particular ties to batman and yet they still find a way to put bats in it and of course he's winning lol sigh

Torn between New 52, Injustice, Arrow, and Origins.

I think I'm going to have to go with Injustice. I just love it's look.

The Batman: Arkham Origins costume is winning because it's an incredibly cool design, not because it's from something with "Batman" in the title. If your accusation was true, then Son of Batman's design would be doing far better.

Its all about the OG costume, from The New Teen Titans and Deathstroke the Terminator.

Classic Terminator tops the list, with Flashpoint (Piratestroke was so cool) as a close second. I'm not a fan of the armored looks...

This.

I'm going to tear everything he cares about away from him. Destroy those who choose to follow him. Corrupt those he loves. Once he has lost everyone and everything he values, I will drive an arrow through his eye.

While the Teen Titians costume my not be the most badass, it is my far the most menacing. Simple and sleek, the Teen Titians Deathstroke was the first exposure I had to the character, and it immediately left its mark on me. The way the shadows played off his black and orange, skull-like mask, made a young child like myself cower away in a corner. However, not only is it menacing, but it is completely effective. While it lacks the sheer badass-ery of say Arkham Origins or his New 52 design, it makes up for in efficiency. It doesn't have all the heavy and oversized armor that some of the others have. It has just enough protective platting and pouches for space to make this Deathtroke, not only an effective killing weapon, but a man of a wicked sense of fashion. I mean, come on, it looks so cool!! :D But ya' know, nostalgia.

I had a hard time picking between Son of Batman, and Arkham Origins. On one hand, I love everything about the Arkham Origins design. The heavy duty amount of amour, the helmet, the kevlar, everything about it is awesome. It's exactly how I picture a live action movie version of Deathstroke would look......However......I really like how in Son of Batman, the cloth comes down over his face and tucks under a chinstrap. It's a brilliant design.

Guess I'll go with Arkham Origins, since I love everything about it and not just one thing.

The mask was removed once during combat with the Titans. Robin kicked him so hard it shattered, but of course his face was obscured by shadows. That's the only time I can remember it actually coming off.

@bunkitz: Same here.

I absolutely love that Origins outfit. The game and its portrayal of Slade was eh, but that suit was badass.

I'm probably the only person but I vote for the blue/black costume. It just looks much more professional to me, and you can't lose with that color combination. Then again, I also like the UDON Taskmaster costume so I guess I'm weird like that.

Tied between his New 52 look and his Teen Titans look, but I think I'm gonna have to go with the latter.

@micah: That was the only time I could remember too.

Their was another if you remember during the Trigon Saga, his mask is damaged and you can see one of his eyes. And later during the same saga its completely removed again but its a skeleton head and face since Slade is undead after being killed by Terra and resurrected by Trigon.

The classic pre-52 one is the best and my favorite. Not single one of the others is as good looking as this one.

I vote Arkham Origins but I also like his design from his small appearance in the flashpoint animated movie.

I like the one that's red and black and kinda looks like Spider-Man!

I also like Young Justice version.

Not a fan of the animated looks all that much, they are a bit to stream lined for me, But of all the armor looks I like the New 52 gear the most, he supposed to be fearsome looking as well as being armored up to handle any job thrown his way

I think the classic suit just looks best from a design sense. The color balance and shapes/lines/textures work well.

Respect the classics you bandwagon fanboys

I love the idea of n'th meteo and overall I just love the New 52 one. But the Arkham games suit just looks soo awesome!

I only really like the Original and the Teen Titans one. The others are meh.

Definitely between Teen Titans and Origins

Arkham Origins.

side not, can someone tell me when Slade wore that blue and black costume where he fought Batman in their second fight, the one where Batman KO's him with his own rifle, I really want to know what that story was about.
