Tony Daniel still draws an amazing Wonder Woman! I wish he was still on Superman/Wonder Woman.

Oh no....

Oh no....

What's wrong?

I just have my doubts about anything good coming of this.

Yup.

Diana taking on Deathstroke in his own book? I don't expect her to die, but I suspect he'll manage to completely humiliate her, at the very least.

Fury vs Deathstroke in Futures End.



Perhaps Diana will be able to get inside his head, instead of ripping it off.

The Gods and Wonder Woman by association are about to lose a ton of cred when Deathstroke "deals" with one them. Deathstroke's bested Wonder Woman before, I think he stole her lasso LOL

Wow.......after all of the people that Deathstroke has tortured and killed over the years, I can't say I feel sorry for him. LoL.....

I don't recall that, but I do recall the DC online trailer where he also managed to dodge her blows and steal her lasso.

I also remember a time when Wonder Woman and Deathstroke actually fought in William Messner-Loebs comic.

Wonder Woman won but he did a number on her, and his punches did manage to hurt her hard, hard enough to knock her into a far away tree.

And then in Injustice Video Game where he did beat her, but he had that magical krptonite pill or whatever so eh, plus it was a game where everyone beat everyone, so I managed to just blow past that, but what I'm saying as that she...doesn't have a good history with him and whenever she's paired with a street-leveler I'm nervous esp one like Deathstroke but who knows, Tony did draw Superman/Wonder Woman before and despite the divisive attitude around that comic, I would hope his time with her did make it so that he doesn't use her as cannon fodder or whatever.

The Infinite Crisis trailer was taken from a comic book where Deathstroke fought evenly with Wonder Woman, he stole her lasso, then Wonder Woman was KO'ed by an energy blast and finally Lex made her scream so Superman would come. He hid kryptonite in her mouth and thus the Justice League was vanquished lol

I don't think Tony Daniel cares about Wonder Woman very much, he cropped her out of his facebook page cover so there's that but hey maybe we're all getting ahead of ourselves. Does Wonder Woman have an editor?

In Futures end he helps Cadmus to black bag Earth: 2 metahumans ("heroes") in order to experiment on them. So Fury ripping his head off was quite a "F@€& yeah!" moment

Not so much worried about the art, which Tony does brilliantly. It's his writing I am worried about, because we have his Detective Comic's run to lean on, where we amongst other things have 'just human' Batman kicking a steel support beam out of shape.
And he's now writing a character thats become every boys dream of a hard-nosed, testostorone-driven, gun-toting, 90'ties hardcase. Quite frankly, I'd be worred about the appearance of any guest stars in such a book.

Deathstroke has always had "inexplicable dumb down powers" thats what I call it when characters tend to beat other characters that are out of their league power wise. It usually involves the more powerful character forgetting that they have certain powers. Deathstroke is well trained and a little bit above peak human, WonderWoman is a demigoddess with superhuman speed strength and is arguably just as well trained. Someone explain to me how this should be even remotely a competitive fight?

It shouldn't be. Only hardcore Deathstroke fans would argue otherwise.

On paper, Diana should crush Deathstroke in every conceivable encounter.

You're totally right about the "inexplicable dumb down powers." Deathstroke only does well against heroes like Diana when some writer either nerfs the crap out of said hero or grossly exaggerates what Deathstroke can do.
