  Slade such a menace, He terrorized the titans the entire series, came back to Freddy Krueger Robin, then finished out the series telling Beast Boy simpin ain’t  pimpin. That’s Black Air Force Energy in it’s final form 🔥

  Slade truly was the terminator in that series, not even Satan himself can hold him back from beyond the grave.😹

  I love that (though I believe that they only did it to avoid censors) he is just called “Slade” instead of “Deathstroke”. Rather than some over the top villain from the cartoon, he realistically felt like another adult. As a kid, you will naturally have some adults you feel is oppressing you in some way like a teacher or parent. “Slade” taps into that fear in all the best ways to make him a compelling villain.

  The reason why deathstroke waged war on the teen titans in the comics was that his son joined their team and was later killed in battle. He blamed the team for his son's own decision and vowed to make them pay. The show changed his origin to being a random psychopath that just wanted to torment the team, which is scarier since he has no real motive and therefore can't be understood or related to.

  Man. Ron Perlman is just a master at voicing absolutely badass villains. Slade and the lich are some of my favorite villains ever

  That&apos;s the thing, from his first appearance we are shown Slade is fully capable of killing all the titans. But he doesn&apos;t. And you have to wonder why. There&apos;s the robin thing sure but I think he was trying to groom all of them through robin to control the future of the superhero world

  I just noticed something about the PTSD episode! In the beginning, when Robin first sees PTSD Slade, the rain isn’t touching him but it’s pouring on Robin. Because he’s not real.

  Ron Perlman brought this character to life so well he’s the only one I ever picture playing as Slade because he is sooooo fucking good.

  This show made Deathstroke my favorite DC character of all time. I mean what&apos;s cooler than a martial-arts trained, super-soldier, tactician, assassin, and criminal mastermind with an eyepatch who single-handedly beats and psychologically scars an entire team of super-heroes.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBkU6KTVSCA&amp;t=1529">25:29</a> Abso-fucking-lutely. You wanna know what the WORST depiction of character PTSD is? Yang from RWBY and her &apos;trauma&apos; from losing her arm, which she has for like... A grand total of two seconds and it never shows up again. Ever.

  The confrontation between Beast Boy and Slade over Terra the first time had some unsettling implications from his dialogue. <br>BB - &quot;What did you do to her!&quot; Slade - &quot;Nothing she didn&apos;t want me to&quot;. <br>Little reference for people who knew other versions of Deathstroke.<br><br>Also that one animation on newgrounds where they take straight cuts from the show change the outcome of that scene with no changes to the dialogue. You know the one.
