I'm tired of this. Damian is the biological son of Slade. And just for that i'm not gonna be Damian fan anymore. DC finally done. They ruined all that i feel for the character.

Is a story about a conflict beetween Bruce and Slade that involve a threat that is probably targetting their families, they didn't ruin their relationship, we knlw that the 2 are in good terms, the batbooks are just focussing in other things right now, althougth we might need to wait for King to end his run before we have a B&R book again.
Priest is just screwing with us, trust me DC isn't go to throw away Damian's gimmick in an arc from Deathstroke, he is probably just trying to get attention to his story, a dirty method, but not something that i hasn't been before, we really had nothing to worry about.
Deathstroke vs Batman is giving me Born to Kill and Renegade nostalgia.
While that is a big part of the character but if the only thing you like about my boy is his bloodine then maybe you are not a Damian fan but rather a fan of the concept of Bruce and Talia having a kid.
I know you are just venting your anger and frustration at a sales promo. Do not give up something you enjoy just to spite a company that's pissed you off.
The fact is this story is set before Deathstroke Rebirth
They made a point of putting in a special not so readers take note
In Batman Bruce calls Damian his son
Same in Metal, Supersons Rebirth and tec Rebirth. Superman Rebirth, Green Arrow Rebirth, Nightwing Rebirth even Batman Beyond Rebirth.
So unless this deathstroke v Batman story arc is set AFTER Batman breaks down at the hanging of his son, The Button crossover where Bruce tells Thomas about his grandson, Metal where the thought of Damian and the boys gives Bruce the power to fight on, Tec where Bruce is seen rushing to Damian when the boys are down and where Damian is pulling that blood son crap, Supersons #10 where Bruce tells us that Damian is just like him and Talia inner monologue makes it clear he is Bruce's as she compares him to his father.
Unless this story which is SET before Deathstroke Rebirth is set AFTER all these other comics and Story arcs then DC and all these stories already tell readers how thing's turned out. In all these DC has told you that Damian is Bruce's biological son.
So unless there are two Damian Wayne's knocking about out there it seems to me Dc and several writer's have gone out of their way to leave clues so fans know what the score is going forward.
seems that the Jokes and Riddles still continue.

The arc is definitely set before Lazarus Contract/Defiance at the least.
