Deathstroke had a son Deathstrike. How come he wasn't in the DC Encycopedia? Unless he became redundant when all those crisis started rearranging timelines.

He has a son named Deathstrike ? What is this ? Image ?
When did he ever have a son named deathstrike ? The only son of Deathstoke that i know of was Jericho.

Actually I think he had another son called Ravager or something like that. He took a contract that was against the Teen Titans and when he died his father took over the contract.

How exactly did rose lose her one eye ?!
I still have the issue of Deathstroke where Rose is introduced , she was just a kid , young and innocent.

She stabbed her own eye as her way to show she was loyal to him.

Jericho knew from a young age that his dad was no good. He nearly was killed as a child by men who had a beef with his father. That is why Jericho couldn't speak because he had his throat slit because of his dad.

Yep. This has more recently been chalked up to her being on drugs supplied by Deathstroke to keep her under her influence.
Deathstroke abducted her from her foster parents (and killed them, of course), and then made her go bad. At the time, the Titans assumed that some kind of mind control was at work-- but OYL, they've forgotten that and are all suspicious.

That is why Jericho couldn't speak because he had his throat slit because of his dad.I think he was talking about Ravager II, who was Slade's half-brother. I don't know what his beef was either.
And if the first Ravager wasn't in the Encyclopedia, it's because he was killed in his first or second appearance.
Deathstroke really is a dumb name, isn't it?

He was originally called "Deathstroke, the Terminator" but the Terminator part got dropped after the Ah-hold movie came out a couple years after Slade was introduced.

Yes i agre the name Deathstroke is not good, but the character is very good, one of the best bad guys in DCU i think, he became much moe than a simple supervillain.
He had his own series in the 90s, an action oriented book, i thought it was ok, written by his creator too, not many bad guys get to have longer runs in their own book.
What happened to his son Jericho?

Ravager II is not Slade's half-brother, as Ravager II is a GIRL (Rose Wilson, daughter of Slade "Deathstroke" Wilson).
Joseph (Jericho) Wilson and Grant (Ravager I, deceased) Wilson were Slade's sons.

Slade's half-brother (Wade DeFarge I believe) was Ravager II...Rose is Ravager III.
Slade had to kill Jericho because the souls of Azareth possessed him and he was going to bad things. In the most recent incarnation of the Teen Titans Jericho came back but he doesn't have a physical body anymore...eventually he made "contact" with Cyborg he then closed his real eye and Jericho went into his body through his cybernetic eye...long story short, Cyborg converted him to a file which he saved onto a floppy.

very illogical i think, stupid writing.

For sure , Jericho should have stayed dead.
Whatever happened to that female vigilante that Deathstroke was training ?
Agentum

Yes, i wonder too about that, the current Vigilante is somebody else.
DC have tried to erase all that happened in his own book, why they don't like it i don't know, after all it was the creator that wrote it so it should have been canon.

you guys are nuts...
Deathstroke is one of the BEST names in comic book history.
just edgy enough to still be relevant...
barely scraped by the onslaught of 90's extremeness names that sound very similar to his.
So what I am basically saying is that yes, we can thank Marv Wolfman and Deathstroke for Rob Liefield and Blood/Fang/Night/Kill.

Not True. His Series which started in '91 was called Deathstroke The Terminator.

Yeah. He was actually just called Terminator at first. I don't remember the Deathstroke moniker being applied until around the time of "Titans Hunt", when they were clearly getting prepared to spin him off into his own book, hence the need for a new name.
