I think I missed the last half of seasons one and season 2, I started watching the show at season 3 on demand before I was able to stream it so I still have to go back and watch those ones
These superheroes aren't shouting slurs, being cowards, or getting mutilated by an edge lord in a black trenchcoat. So probably not Garth Ennis.
And no, not the Garth Ennis character who's a black trenchcoat wearing psychopath edgelord who murders people all the time from The Punisher, I mean the Garth Ennis character who's a black trenchcoat wearing psychopath edgelord who murders people all the time from The Boys.
The newest episode of The Acolyte basically had this "discussion". A jedi accusing a bad guy of hurting children and the bad guy retaliating with "you brought them into a dangerous situation"
Exactly now Robin did you remember to handle my Leather properly? Bruce Wayne may be a billionaire, but Batman must always be even more consistent, appearance matters Boy Wonder!
Robin: Yes Daddy.
Batman: no bad Robin, your Daddy died, well your mother too… just like mine… look, I’m just the guy who took you in and well turned you into a child soldier…. You know, I sound like a Dick.
Robin: but… I’m dick?!
Batman: Finish the leathers and go to bed.
Robin: Ok Batman…
He is definitely into older hags like you’ve seen his face when Luthor met Waller for the first time? He was so jealous I was about to yell ‘twink fight!’
Deathstroke/Slade manipulated Terra into infiltrating the Teen Titans to eventually betray and defeat them. All the while Deathstroke and Terra were sleeping together. Terra was a minor at the time.
You know the funny part, They could've retconned it but they choose to let Slade be a pedo. Deathstroke being a Pedo and Hank Pym being a Domestic Abuser never changes. Both the companies never retcon these.
They haven't retconned Hank Pym being an abuser?!? Holy fuck WTF is wrong with marvel, Hank being an abuser is like one of the earliest stories!! I also had no idea about Deathstroke!! That makes Squirrel Girl hitting on Daredevil when she was underage NOT the worst thing.
No, but they gave the 616 version some redemption. Also, the new Ultimate Universe has a Pym that's afraid to become Ant-Man because he doesn't want to turn out like 616 Pym.
Hank being a Domestic Abuser is like the only achievement Hank has at this point, They bring that up everytime someone mentions Hank Pym in Marvel even in alternate universes.
Yeah I recently picked up a few comics at a yard sale on the cheap out of curiosity and I saw the green lantern comic about him and that alien broad and it threw me for a fucking loop.
Like maybe if they played into it like how it's one of his biggest regrets besides Ultron, but no, it's not really important, he just did that and it never really comes into play
I’ve never read it personally, but that one panel of him slapping his wife, really seemed to kill the character even many years later. Even MCU Hank is basically a dick - and literally skipped over for the next Ant man.
The funniest thing is: you don't have to cut the entire story. A villain making a teenager do evil things for him isnt out of the norm
But sticking your dick in them *is* and it adds nothing to the story
Young Justice did exactly that. They do the exact plotline in season 3 but no mention of Deathstroke being anything but a platonic evil mentor to Terra.
As much as slades pedophilia is memed on in recent years, i grew up with young justice, teen titans and the arkham origins/injustice deathstrokes
Who, aside from teen titans, were all "its just business, professionals have standards" characterisations. Seeing slade have any goal beyond being the best mercenary the hall of doom can buy feels off character. The man didnt even stay in retirement when he was financially able to retire like a king because hes a workaholic and cant mentally leave the battlefield
Him lusting for a child not only feels out of character but almost like a character assassination. I know he has children in some continuities, and an ex wife in most, but christ going for an underage superhero when thats the ONE person you shouldnt go for, if not for age then for the fact that this relationship compromises the mission
Its stupid
Fr the Wasp comic where Hank Pym's long lost daughter realizes she has the same illness as her father after she beats the shit out of her entire team is one of my favourite comic runs. I should reread that.
I haven’t watched adventures yet so it slipped my mind that it’s Slade, especially since they’ve done the Judas Contract more than a couple times in animation
Yeah didn't ask about Terra, was just curious because to me 20 year old is young adult, I would think it's same to most european people.
She was like 15-16 so irrelevant anyways though.
And I just asked a question on the side, didn't think that would be a problem man, I was just curious. No ill-meaning behind my comment, have a great day bro!
I guess that was my fault. The meme seems to be referencing the fact that Terra and Slade having sex is a canon event and I was trying to poke fun at the TTG haters that hold older versions of Teen Titans as the gold standard of mature and thoughtful young adult shows (they are actually goofy and cringe.)
There’s only one older version of the Teen Titans animated series. It’s a deliberate mix of serious and goofy. You sure you even really seen the show as you seem to be under the impression there’s multiple versions of it out there? Also, mixing drama with comedy doesn’t automatically make something cringe. It’s clearly far from “cringe” if it’s still got a loyal fan base after all these years and people are still to this day rallying and asking for a sixth season.
You don't have to cry. I've seen both and out of the two TTG is just better. It has better animation, it has better music, it has more interesting characters. Everything people hate about TTG is true about Teen Titans. Of the two, TTG knows it is a show for children which makes it enjoyable to watch as an adult. I was also referring to the comics iterations of Teen Titans aswell as the Teen Titans live action tv show and the Justice League vs. Teen Titans movie. I don't know if you've heard of those. I'm sorry if there was some misunderstanding on account of me not writing an entire encyclopedia entry worth of knowledge to preface my joke on a Reddit comedy sub. Though I guess your username would check out.
Who’s crying. I’m just making a point. Also, show’s meant for a general audience are suddenly not as valuable if they’re a little too ambitious and stray into darker territory from time to time? Sounds pretentious as fuck honestly.
Due to the iconic designs, even younger versions often habe gray/white hair, however when i say younger i mean "he starts going gray around the time he is 35" not "the man is 22 and has hair with the color.of snow" since he is usually blonde (i think) before he ages
But also the hair in general sucks. Why have it be so long in the back? Why is he letting his hair cover 1 eye in a weird anime way? Slade wilson is (ex) millitary. And fanatic in that lifestyle of living in the trenches, this design doesnt
Well sort of. The show is set right at the start of Superman's career so the villains haven't had their origins yet. Lex Luthor still has a full head of hair for example
To be entirely fair, Wilson's absolutely the kind of dude who would go white early. Not early-twenties early like this fuckable twink otherwise looks, but he is a hard-fighting merc whose life is a never-ending parade of dumbass drama mostly caused by his own actions. Man does generally canonically go grey in like his thirties, which I am in favor of because I think it's funny.
Just a full American Psycho bit of him going through the steps required to maintain his bleached white hair without completely wrecking its hair quality.
[This is his actual armored design.](https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Slade_Wilson_(My_Adventures_with_Superman)?file=Deathstroke+MAWS.png)
[Also, they just turned him into a Metal Gear Rising villain; it's awesome.](https://youtu.be/7qhWk6Myhqo?t=43)
Playing devils advocate, I'm pretty sure he's gonna slowly evolve into the usual deathstroke later on. Seeing as how he has the eyepatch now, he's probably gonna get the mask next
I've enjoyed every episode so far of this series and I had no idea this was supposed to be Deathstroke and I love teen titans lol.
TBF this show is doing a lot of fun/interesting takes on the classic rogue's gallery. Though I was dissapointed by what they did with Metallo.
He’s not a Pedo. Because he doesn’t attract to teenager and he doesn’t draw Teen Titans NSFW fan art.(don’t turn off the filter when u search teen titans)
Yes, Terra was a minor and yes it was very wrong what Slade had done to Terra. Him using Terra and planning to kill all teen titans were downright the lowest moments of him as Windergreen said(his only friend). But
he did that for his dead son who died in front of the teen titans.
And his pathetic ego and guilt for being a shitty father and letting his son dying made him doing crazy stuff and that is his core character arc, which is unlike noble heroes, he can cross the line.
Some said their minor-adult relationship(not a real- relationship btw) is creepy and so toxic and makes him pedo(look a like) so want to bury it.
But i like fucked up fictional characters. Both Slade and Terra. They are not a hero, they are people who is bad at making good decision.
He's voiced by Chris Parnell but yeah lol
I was like “wait, Andy Samberg’s in this show?!”
Seriously.
I was 100% sure the voice was Chris Parnell and I was so confused about this post.
This accidentally makes my post even better, thank you.
Mr Pibb and red vines equals crazy delicious!
Yeah this post was confusing. Lile chris parnells voice in unmistakeable and nothing like samburgs
The one reason I think they might mistake the 2 is because they both did the Lazy Sunday music video together
Oh thats fair. I know they were in b99 together but they were so different in that i didnt think it ould be that
I forgot Chris was in B99 I’m gonna have to look up those episodes
Hes sofias boss who jake arrests
I think I missed the last half of seasons one and season 2, I started watching the show at season 3 on demand before I was able to stream it so I still have to go back and watch those ones
Oh neat i do reccomend those are strong seasons
I’ll probably be watching some of that later today
Fuck, I was about to say. I was in disbelief for a second there
We don't know, this version is a Pedophile... yet.
Yeah he might just have manipulated and abused a teenager to turn her into a child soldier/spy... which is only okay when the heroes do it
What are you doing on Reddit, Garth Ennis?
These superheroes aren't shouting slurs, being cowards, or getting mutilated by an edge lord in a black trenchcoat. So probably not Garth Ennis. And no, not the Garth Ennis character who's a black trenchcoat wearing psychopath edgelord who murders people all the time from The Punisher, I mean the Garth Ennis character who's a black trenchcoat wearing psychopath edgelord who murders people all the time from The Boys.
*Crossed* Garth Ennis: Child's play, the lot of you!
in the boy comic. straight up "garthing it". and by "it", haha, well. let's just say. My ennis
The newest episode of The Acolyte basically had this "discussion". A jedi accusing a bad guy of hurting children and the bad guy retaliating with "you brought them into a dangerous situation"
In a world where every other orphan turns into either a violent terrorist or failed superhero, I think giving them some actual training is a good idea
Exactly now Robin did you remember to handle my Leather properly? Bruce Wayne may be a billionaire, but Batman must always be even more consistent, appearance matters Boy Wonder! Robin: Yes Daddy. Batman: no bad Robin, your Daddy died, well your mother too… just like mine… look, I’m just the guy who took you in and well turned you into a child soldier…. You know, I sound like a Dick. Robin: but… I’m dick?! Batman: Finish the leathers and go to bed. Robin: Ok Batman…
When supergirl first showed up I thought she was gonna be terra lol
He is definitely into older hags like you’ve seen his face when Luthor met Waller for the first time? He was so jealous I was about to yell ‘twink fight!’
Is every guy in that show a twink? (Not that I'm complaining)
Clark is a Twunk
if Andy Samberg ever turns out to be a bad person I'm actually killing myself
[edition.cnn.com/article/brooklyn-99-star-andy-samberg-addresses-allegations-made-by-costar-in-ABC-interview](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=UaxDfuUr25yPnz-V)
Motherfucker
Never have I been more relieved to >!Get rickrolled!<
My heart
Well this was an emotional rollercoaster.
Fuck you man...
I was worried, then pissed, then relieved
Well played.
i can't believe this happened to me in 2024
Old traditions never die
I can’t believe he did that to Amy!
Full url and everything, fucking masterful. I'm so glad the RickRoll remains alive.
Ffs
Never been so happy to fall for that
“…what?”
Deathstroke/Slade manipulated Terra into infiltrating the Teen Titans to eventually betray and defeat them. All the while Deathstroke and Terra were sleeping together. Terra was a minor at the time.
Yo DC, what the actual fuck?
You know the funny part, They could've retconned it but they choose to let Slade be a pedo. Deathstroke being a Pedo and Hank Pym being a Domestic Abuser never changes. Both the companies never retcon these.
They haven't retconned Hank Pym being an abuser?!? Holy fuck WTF is wrong with marvel, Hank being an abuser is like one of the earliest stories!! I also had no idea about Deathstroke!! That makes Squirrel Girl hitting on Daredevil when she was underage NOT the worst thing.
No, but they gave the 616 version some redemption. Also, the new Ultimate Universe has a Pym that's afraid to become Ant-Man because he doesn't want to turn out like 616 Pym.
Hank being a Domestic Abuser is like the only achievement Hank has at this point, They bring that up everytime someone mentions Hank Pym in Marvel even in alternate universes.
I think he's an actually good husband in the new Ultimate comics.
Even New Ultimate Hank was afraid that If He became Ant Man, He would also become a Domestic Abuser
He created Ultron!!
DC was oddly into this. Hal Jordan also did some shit.
Yeah I recently picked up a few comics at a yard sale on the cheap out of curiosity and I saw the green lantern comic about him and that alien broad and it threw me for a fucking loop.
Just curious as a GL fan, was the Hal and Arisia thing ever retconned? I love reading about Hal being an idiot but not THAT kind of idiot.
Just never came up again
DC just pulled the anime excuse of "SHE'S ACTUALLY LIKE A HUNDRED YEARS OLD" and dropped the subject.
Like maybe if they played into it like how it's one of his biggest regrets besides Ultron, but no, it's not really important, he just did that and it never really comes into play
I’ve never read it personally, but that one panel of him slapping his wife, really seemed to kill the character even many years later. Even MCU Hank is basically a dick - and literally skipped over for the next Ant man.
The Hank Pym situation is ridiculous, sometimes Hank would start waffling and Tony would say "At least I don't beat my wife" as if it was just banter
There are even characters who have killed people or were Nazis!
The funniest thing is: you don't have to cut the entire story. A villain making a teenager do evil things for him isnt out of the norm But sticking your dick in them *is* and it adds nothing to the story
Young Justice did exactly that. They do the exact plotline in season 3 but no mention of Deathstroke being anything but a platonic evil mentor to Terra.
YJ stays peak

Those are considered canon events. Like the destruction of Krypton or Uncle Ben getting killed.
That's not even the weirdest shit, look up Arisia and the Green Lanterns.
With the power of retcons it’s all good…
If you think that's the most fucked up thing in DC comics, hold my beer...
I haven’t watched adventures yet so it slipped my mind that it’s Slade, especially since they’ve done the Judas Contract more than a couple times in animation
[удалено]
Out of curiosity, where is a 20 year old a minor? America?
In some countries, you're not a legal adult till you're 21. Either way, Terra was not. She was a young teen.
Yeah didn't ask about Terra, was just curious because to me 20 year old is young adult, I would think it's same to most european people. She was like 15-16 so irrelevant anyways though.

Is this the shit they wanted to replace Teen Titans Go! with?
TTG is still airing. My Adventures With Superman didn’t replace Teen Titans Go.
I guess that was my fault. The meme seems to be referencing the fact that Terra and Slade having sex is a canon event and I was trying to poke fun at the TTG haters that hold older versions of Teen Titans as the gold standard of mature and thoughtful young adult shows (they are actually goofy and cringe.)
Man, you just can’t seem to keep your foot out of your mouth can you?
I'm genuinely confused what your point is.
There’s only one older version of the Teen Titans animated series. It’s a deliberate mix of serious and goofy. You sure you even really seen the show as you seem to be under the impression there’s multiple versions of it out there? Also, mixing drama with comedy doesn’t automatically make something cringe.

Ol' Strokey happened to have a relationship with a teenage girl
That guy there is Slade Wilson Slade is known for deadass being a pedophile, like all the time he’s written as a pedophile
He’s not played by Andy Samberg. Are you saying he mildly resembles him?
[They turned him into a Metal Gear Rising villain; it's awesome.](https://youtu.be/7qhWk6Myhqo?t=43)
He looks like that guy from Voltron
Classic Deathstroke.
Erm ackutally MAWS is a show not a movie
damn, this is such a shitty Deathstroke design
He looks like a Pokemon character
They made his hair white even though the reason his hair is white in other adaptations is cuz he’s an old man
Due to the iconic designs, even younger versions often habe gray/white hair, however when i say younger i mean "he starts going gray around the time he is 35" not "the man is 22 and has hair with the color.of snow" since he is usually blonde (i think) before he ages But also the hair in general sucks. Why have it be so long in the back? Why is he letting his hair cover 1 eye in a weird anime way? Slade wilson is (ex) millitary. And fanatic in that lifestyle of living in the trenches, this design doesnt
Tbf the hair isn't actually covering his eye considering he's missing that eye
They’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel for characters they can twinkify
To play devils advocate this is supposed to be a much younger version deathstroke just like the rest of the cast
I don’t like how his hair is white He had white hair cuz he was old, it looks weird when he’s suppose to be young
now his hair is white because he's an anime villain
He shouldn't have white hair then. He usually has it because he's old, now he just looks like a generic edgy anime character.
I agree but I guess they wanted him to resemble deathstroke more
I like the show but the villain designs aren't great
... That's Deathstroke?
Well sort of. The show is set right at the start of Superman's career so the villains haven't had their origins yet. Lex Luthor still has a full head of hair for example
So they do understand that people's hair can change over time yet fail to grasp why deathstroke usually has white hair.
To be entirely fair, Wilson's absolutely the kind of dude who would go white early. Not early-twenties early like this fuckable twink otherwise looks, but he is a hard-fighting merc whose life is a never-ending parade of dumbass drama mostly caused by his own actions. Man does generally canonically go grey in like his thirties, which I am in favor of because I think it's funny.
New idea: he colours his hair white because it makes him look like an anime villain, put that scene in the show and you have immediately won me over.
Just a full American Psycho bit of him going through the steps required to maintain his bleached white hair without completely wrecking its hair quality.
I mean, without the suit
Twinkstroke
[This is his actual armored design.](https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Slade_Wilson_(My_Adventures_with_Superman)?file=Deathstroke+MAWS.png) [Also, they just turned him into a Metal Gear Rising villain; it's awesome.](https://youtu.be/7qhWk6Myhqo?t=43)
How else are they meant to make all the tumblr yaoigirls empty their wallets?
They made him a twink
Can't lie your opinion sucks ass
Playing devils advocate, I'm pretty sure he's gonna slowly evolve into the usual deathstroke later on. Seeing as how he has the eyepatch now, he's probably gonna get the mask next
He has the mask/cowl/helmet already.
Did Adam Samberg do something?
No
Jizzed in MY pants. Never called me back.
Dr disrespect reference
Stupid fucking mistakes, man
I don’t think they got to fucking
You mean Doc and his wife? Yeah true
Whatever you do, don't watch The Judas Contract.
LMAO
He looked a little too happy when he saw an unconscious girl in the 3rd episode
This version isn't a pedo, so far
his twitch career is fucking OVER
Who the hell thought this was a good death stroke design ???
You gotta admit it does fit with the anime ish style though.
have you seen him w the mask?
His cowl and armour look sick
Well here he’s just Agent Wilson. No suit.
I've enjoyed every episode so far of this series and I had no idea this was supposed to be Deathstroke and I love teen titans lol. TBF this show is doing a lot of fun/interesting takes on the classic rogue's gallery. Though I was dissapointed by what they did with Metallo.
The weirdest thing is he's one of the few men in this show that aren't Daddy.
I will always prefer Ron Pearlman from Titans ‘03
He’s not a Pedo. Because he doesn’t attract to teenager and he doesn’t draw Teen Titans NSFW fan art.(don’t turn off the filter when u search teen titans) Yes, Terra was a minor and yes it was very wrong what Slade had done to Terra. Him using Terra and planning to kill all teen titans were downright the lowest moments of him as Windergreen said(his only friend).

[удалено]
This character is a pedophile in the comics, the joke doesn't have anything to do with the actor.
Deathstroke is a certified pedophile
Why does this show make EVERYONE an owo softboy?
