Deathstroke V4 (2016)

In DC Rebirth, Deathstroke, along with Lady Shiva, is mentioned as one of the enemies that Batman thinks may be attacking him on Two-Face‘s orders. He also stars in an ongoing series where he has a change of conscience and recruits a team of young superheroes to redeem his past misdeeds. In addition, he has come into contact with the African hero Red Lion/President Matthew Bland of Buredunia. Bland offers him a high sum for making sure his competition was not bringing in US forces, in exchange for Slade’s Ikon Suit made of Promethium for his own suit. He attempts to save his son by using Speed Force energy off from Kid Flash, but he was thwarted by both Titans and Teen Titans. He later builds the newest team called Defiance, with both his children, Wintergreen, Adeline Kane and Wallace as his teammates.  It was later disbanded after Power Girl committed suicide, and Slade’s attempts have grown worse to himself. 

Deathstroke was later imprisoned in Arkham Asylum, though he escapes and later defeated by the Titans.  In order for his death-wish to be confirmed, he releases all the inmates that Robin had put to attack the Titans, he came close of Damian to kill him, but instead, he was killed by Red Arrow.
