Hmm I was just watching the latest episode of Teen Titans and man... I love this show. Robin is a little too strong for my tastes tho. BTW anyone else thinks that Slade is Bruce Wayne?

Without even watching the show (and I haven't), I can say: no.

Slade Wilson is well-known as the real name of the Titans' oldest enemy Deathstroke The Terminator, though exactly why he hated the Titans is something I can't quite remember.

Even though the show doesn't follow comic continuity (as far as I know), I'm pretty certain that Slade is NOT Bruce Wayne, rather just a reimagining of Deathstroke.

BAH! If only I knew any of that Comic knowledge. I dunno Slade just really reminded me of Bruce Wayne because... I figured he made Robin steal from his own tech.

Eh, not your fault. I just know way too much about comics. I own like 5 Teen Titans issues, but thanks to my knowledge of Batman, Robin, Flash/Kid Flash, and my reading of stuff like "Who's Who in the DCU", I'm way more familiar with TT than I oughta be. That goes for everything... I own like maybe 40 issues of Green Lantern but I'm a big GL history buff. Same goes for Flash, Batman, etc. I even knew a lot about Marvel back in the early 90s but I know like nothing about them anymore.

In short, I just read way too many comics.

Deathstroke, (or Slade) was in a few recent issues of Nightwing. For those of you who don't know, Nightwing is the final version of Drick Grayson after he leaves Batman's shadow. Utter badass, well, recently anyways. After he left Batman in the cave, Dick joined the Titans, and thats around the time Deathstroke popped up. They had their battles n' junk, but SLade held this amazing respect for Nightwing. He was something SLade could never be, and sure Slade envied that, but he respected it. And of course Nightwing's skill. But SLade made some jokes about Nightwing's old costume and choice in teams.

I know who slade is to a degree, and I still thought Slade was Bruce.
Robin saying he had a father and Bats flying aroung
DD becomeing a bat
Wayne enterprises
For some reason it all started feeling likem a big test set up by the bat. Think about it, we never saw Deathstrokes face, hes dresed it black were as the comic version had far more blue and Orange, where as black is the bats color.

Haha I knew a lot of DC/Marvel history in the early/mid 90s too... until I stopped reading comics. Now I just pretty much stick with TF and TMNT books.
