    The fact that Slade is the toned-down version of his comic version is insane. Shot Impulse (the 2nd Kid Flash) in the knee with a shot gun, point-blank. His "relationship" with Terra, ugh. Forced his daughter to be high on pills and to prove her loyalty by having her gouge out her own eye to be "Just Like Daddy". Slade Wilson is a DEMON.

    I think one reason I love Slade as a villain is because he manage to achieve so much in the series as a regular human. Slade is manipulative, cunning, intelligent, master of martial artists and athletic. Another thing that made him stand out in the series was how he saw potential in his pupils while most villain's just kill them for the dumbest reasons.

      tbh He's beyond a regular human at this point in the series. his intelligence, Durability, Speed and the fights he had against the Titans just says it all. that he's around Peak human or low superhuman with a gifted mind.
      Heck, that dust he stored on his mask that made Robin see him psychologically and getting beaten to the brek of death is very unique and scary. It's very similar to that of Scarecrow's fear gas but very ampt.

    I just love the idea that this man was so petty about even the possibility of losing, he had a back up that would allow him to mentally torture Robin to near death. It was that line of thinking that got Raven's father smiling and going, "Hey, I heard you like torturing kids. You want a free Revive and take over the world?" Of course, Trigon did leave out that part of "Take over" as in, "End" but hey, when you're dead, you don't have many bargaining chips on the table.

      This polar opposite of a mad man had everything- the skills, the Drip, the ambition, the will to do literally ANYTHING it took to get what he desired, whether it was getting Robin as his apprentice or to simply see the Titans kicked down a peg.

And just like Beast boy fought against Slade it feels like they have to fight to help them hear the trauma & be comfortable receiving & giving affection, intimacy, connecting with and trusting another human being again.

      In the comics he was a merc for hire, It really deadly one that can theoretically take on Superman with a kryptonite blade
      He was a military modified super soldier
      Why did Slade have a bone to pick with the Titans? Well they were implicated in the death of his son Grant( the original ravanger
      Interestingly enough
      Joey Wilson( Slade's other kid) was the show yet don't mention that it's him
      blonde kid emerald eyes. Mute
      This is very important, out of the universe, Joey The first American sign language speaker for comics
      in comics
      he's only mute becaus Slade didn't get to him in time to save him from getting his throat slit rival mercenary assassin shit
      This caused his wife Adeline Kane, former military officer, to shoot him in the back of the head
      When that didn't work she served him the divorce papers
      ( That's why he wears the eye patch
      ( Interestingly enough, you can't want to heal up eyes that were shot from the back of the head)
      My only assumption for this show is
      he's lonely. He lost the kids in the divorce which is more funny in hindsight
      Honestly, Jericho and Grant were treated better by Slade in the comics. Original run of the Judith contract
      ( Jericho was the Judas for Wilson's family and Tara was the Judas for the Titans. )
      Oh and Tara was just a psychopath who actively wanted the Titans destroyed.

    In a few comics, Tara apparently went evil and basically killed all heroes and destroyed the world. But to know a dimension/story exists where Slade was able to manipulate her? That’s truly terrifying. Real power does not simply equate to how much destruction one is capable of, not simply brute force or the ability to cause harm to others, but the manipulation and subtle control of someone else’ fate? That’s 6 D chess manipulation.

    When you realize Slade was playing with the Teen Titans the entire time and could have killed them at any point in time.
    ... now that I think about it, Slade probably blackmailed the government to have them not interfere in his mind games, hence the lack of appearance from the Justice League. That and he probably blackmailed the JL too. Afterall, he already knew Batman's identity and most likely the others'. Slade has balls the size of Kentucky so it wouldn't surprise me.

    Besides Trigon, Slade aka Deathstroke is the best antagonist in the entire show. He haunted Robin and became his personal demon, manipulated Terra, got under Beast Boy’s skin, and even made Raven lose control just so he could free her literal devil of a father. That bastard was no joke.

      It's also weird that they have Joey Wilson in the show yet don't mention that it's him
      ( Jericho blonde kid emerald eyes. Mute
      Yeah he's only mute becaus Slade didn't get to him in time to save him from getting his throat slit
      ( Which caused Slade and his wife to get a divorce which is why he's looking for apprentices he's lonely. He lost the kids in the divorce)
      Honestly, Jericho and Grant were treated better by Slade in the comics. Original run of the Judith contract ( Jericho was the Judas for Wilson's family and Tara was the Judas for the Titans.
      To sum up slates backstory in the comics It's I lost the kids in the divorce and I'm bored
