Deathstroke September 2017 Solicitations

DC Comics' September solicitations were released yesterday and while we're now only getting one issue of Deathstroke a month, it does look as though he might show up in a high profile book again that month.

Cover by MIKEL JANIN
Variant cover by OLIVIER COIPEL 
“THE BALLAD OF KITE MAN” part two! 
In our second “War of Jokes and Riddles” interlude, it’s the making of a super-villain! He’s been pushed by Batman to snitch on The Joker, and cajoled by The Joker to betray Batman—now, the flunky who would be Kite Man finally snaps. He’s lost everything, and a life of crime is the only way to go.

Not sure how he fits in exactly, but over in his own book, it looks like the father/daughter relationship is as strong as it's ever been.

“Defiance” part three!

Bah. I'm way behind on this series, but let's face it, he probably had it coming.  "Harsh leadership tactics" indeed...
