He lost the kids in the divorce Why did he have a bone to pick with the Titans? Well they were implicated in the death of his other son Grant 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 ( kind and heroics bidding on sins of the Father ) and Tara was the Judas for the Titans. Oh and Tara was just a psychopath who actively wanted the Titans destroyed. Comics are weird.

So a fun theory someone told me awhile ago: When Robin is gettin whooped by Slade, that isn't trauma. That's actually Slade. Because at any point after he died, he could've interacted with Trigon and become an ACTUAL demon that decided to haunt Robin. I could imagine the conversation going like this: Trigon: I want you to be my servant. Slade: I am no one's servant. Trigon: I'll let you haunt Robin and whoop his ass one more time as a down payment. Slade: ... Trigon: ... Slade: ... You had my attention. You now have my Curiousity.

It was scarecrow fear toxin kept in his mask, because he knew robin would obsess over him. He had not yet been resurrected at that point.

[@DraconX3]

From the OG comics, Slades reason for going after the Titans so much is because his son Grant [who didnt know his dad was Deathstroke at the time] Was in HIVE and wound up coming to blows with the Teen Titans. He got mad at being defeated, so wound up, through HIVE, going through the same super soldier experiment Deathstroke [his dad] did to gain such super strength speed and all that. Unfortunatly he wasnt as succesful with it as his dad and it sapped his life force for using it. He literally killed himself fighting the Titans and died in his dads arms. Thus Slade's vendetta against the Teen Titans.

Honestly your explanation was way easier than mine, because after I started reading comics as a kid, I thought the reason Slade used to harass the Titans was because the show writers couldn't tell the "child audience" that Slade still thinks that they were responsible for killing his son Grant. In other words, you're a smart nigga.

[@imverypassionate8430]

@@antonhanna2423 Grant was trained by his father from a young age, to become a mercenary like him. Slade's methods were rigorous and impersonal, constantly belittling Grant for not living up to his high standards. Slade explained the concept of an "Achilles' heel" to Grant. Eventually, Grant ran away during his teenage years to escape his parental instability. Grant was hired by HIVE to take out the TEEN TITANS during an early lineup. Seeking to emulate his hero, Deathstroke (not knowing Deathstroke to be his own father), he allowed H.I.V.E. to give him extensive genetic enhancements. He took the name RAVAGER and provoked a fight with the Titans. However, the genetic modifications H.I.V.E. made on him led to his heart giving out during the battle, years later, when the collective memory of the Teen Titans was erased from the world in the aftermath of a battle with mister twister, Slade would forget how his son died.

First: I’m sad that TT never got into Slade’s son more even though they showed him. And I’m also sad that they didn’t show his daughter. I didn’t read the comics until I was older and already watched the show. And do you know how SHOCKED I was to find out Slade had not 1 but 2 kids! Second: The thing that I like about Tee Titans and Slade, is that he’s *the* main antagonist for the Team. It’s like this: (Super)Hero shows, comics, etc. have main a villain, arch nemesisses, and final boss villains. And it’s these guys together that makes whatever team great. The main villain is someone who can only be defeated by the *whole* team working together (besides the first encounter). A good example of this is Shredder from TMNT. And Slade executes this BRILLIANTLY! The nemesis is a personal arch or opposite of whatever hero is on the team. They have some historic or freshly made beef with them specifically that ties them together to the point where “it’s on sight. A good example of this is Wolverine and Sabertooth. Slade is the leader’s nemesis, *and* their main villain! Not everyone can pull that off, and it illustrates his threat. And the final Boss is a world ending (or really great threat) that tasks the heroes to not only work together but go *beyond* their limits to win. A good example of this is the FF and Galactus. For them it’s Trigon, but still. Also, I hate that everyone keeps saying “oh he’s beating up teens” Yeah, SUPER TEENS! Not to mention Robin was trained by Batman, who the h-l wouldn’t want to try and have him as a successor? I mean they’re the god d-n Teen *Titans* not the pre-K bubble blowers, *put some respect on their name* ! If the bad guys don’t take them seriously then they will fail pure and simple.

As a friend said to me Slade didn’t just gaslighted just for the hell of it *Deathstroke INVENTED gaslighting*

[@n0denz]

Here's the genius of Slade. He keeps telling Robin that they're the same, which they obviously aren't, but in the process of making Robin dance to his tune, he worms his way into Robin's head until Robin is obsessed. Robin's not trying to fight crime anymore - just beat Slade by any means necessary even if it means becoming the baddie. Slade has been living in Robin's head rent free long enough by the time he dies that the trauma has induced psychosis. The scene where Robin is getting beat up by a hallucination is really similar in my opinion to Fight Club when Tyler Durden beats the shit out of Edward Norton's character. Only Tyler Durden was part of Edward Norton all along, and similarly, Slade is now a part of Robin. He didn't start out being the same as Slade, but Slade made it so.

[@kingtonsiljockey528]

I like to imagine Joker watching Slade beat the piss out of Robin, enjoying a bucket of popcorn and a fold up chair on one of the other roofs lol "Beating up little brats can be such fun, but I think I'd rather enjoy the show on this one!" Laughs and takes a bite😄

I theorized that the gas was possibly Scarecrow's fear toxin, and that he could've stored it a small capsule in his mask ready for when Robin went to pick it up.

That red x wasn't actually Todd, it was literally a character they made up for the show if I remember correctly.

[@kaimobley5324]

There are actually 4 different Red X characters in DC. 1st Red X - Dick Grayson (1st Robin/Nightwing) 2nd Red X - Unknown (the one that took the suit from Robin/Nightwing but is also the mentor of the 4th Red X. Also Glenn Murakami the creator said he'll never reveal the identity of this specific one) 3rd Red X - Unknown (either hasn't been created yet as a character or already is but kept secret until the 1st reveal) 4th Red X - Brick Pettirosso (gets killed by his mentor the 2nd Red X. Has actual powers, a Metahuman. He's a literal walking EMP)

Lmao I'll always remember Slade from the comics as the one who point blank shot Kid Flash in the kneecap to get the TT attention. And then later he got paid to protect Dr Light and he took on (big) Flash, Hawkman, the Atom, Green Arrow, Zatana, Black Canary, and Elongated Man when they came to jump Light

Yeah there have been comics where he pulled the whole "lure and separate the Justice League members then take them out with weaknesses" thing Batman planned.

[@anarchomando7707]

oh my fucking god I hate this theory This along with Batman being slade all along Because you lot are really overcomplicating things. By a long shot. In the comics Slade Joseph Wilson was a just merc for hire, granted. A really deadly one that can theoretically take on Superman with a kryptonite blade. The whole reason he got that was from being a military modified super soldier Why did he have a bone to pick with the Titans? Well they were implicated in the death of his son Grant( the original ravanger It really is that simple And nobody talks about Joey Wilson Joseph "Jericho" Wilson( Slade's other kid) was the show yet don't mention that it's him He's blonde kid emerald eyes. Mute One of the kindest most angelic kids in the world. This is very important, (out of the universe, Jericho The first American sign language speaker for comics in comics He was a normal kid at first born to Slade Wilson, a loving father military veteran and a businessman and Adeline kane former military officer retired He along with his brother was raised in a loving household. However, everything changed when a group of mercenaries wanted to get revenge on his father ( Jericho, Adeline and Grant did not know about his father being a fucking mercenary,) Adeline fucking begged him to shut the fuck up and give the mercenaries the money. They could afford to. But no Slade was too prideful. One thing led to another and in a scuffle the mercenary had Joey with a knife to his throat . Deathstroke. Had a gun to that man's head He shot the bastard, but Joey was hurt. His throat was slit! Severing the vocal cords irreparably. Adeline was pissed that her husband lied to her, And that her husband was to prideful to just pay the pricks off. They have the fucking money So she took revenge on her own accords( far as she was aware her son would be dead if it weren't for a few inches) So she took out her pistol Walking up behind him and Shot him in the back of the head.( He was aware of the gun) yet did not make it in time Apparently that did not work So she settled for divorce also took the kids Jericho is important because he is the "Judas of the Wilson family" Where his family chose war on some fashion Jericho chose peace. He is the anti-terra Markov Tara the yandere sadist who actively wanted Deathstroke all to herself, The Titans dead at her hands. And all of their hearts shattered. ( Granted wolfman had some seriously misogynist writing and I think them toning down the relationship between Tara and Slade was a decent idea.) You know how I said Grant was the original ravanger? Yeah he died of a heart attack.( Using a cocktail serum, Fighting the Titans and then fighting with the Titans) Deathstroke doesn't know that, He thinks the Titans are the reason for his death and he actively wants to defeat them all honoring his eldests sons contract. This is a tale of revenge. It's really that simple.

[@user-ew6ik5rs1g]

In comics deathstroke invaded the justice league headquarters in space, defeated everyone on board and went back to earth. Also went toe to toe with superman, and supes was pissed with him. Has super strength, super reflexes, speed, can regenerate like crazy, has an armory including every weapon, has a blade with Kryptonite edge and ca use 100% of his brain so even Bats cannot see him coming.

I believe that in the comics the Teen Titans fought and killed Slade son who was a mercenary hired to fight them. So Slade dedicated himself to torment them for revenge.

[@QTRemnant]

Idk why Slade was going after the Titans in the show, but the comics had him continue his son's contract after he died fighting the titans.

Aaron: Why’s he messing with teens he could run hands with Batman. Bruh Slades a whole menace he’s ran Batman’s fade before multiple times. And fought the justice league.

And even in the comics he went up against the Titans. In the show I truly think he only bothered with them because he wanted to recruit Robin

[@ElPresidenteMargz]

He’s technically above Batman physically as he’s an enhanced super soldier. They are both on par in skill and as tacticians. Slade usually beats Batman all by himself , while Batman usually needs help to beat Slade . I love their limited dynamic tho. They DO NOT want to mess with each other , Slade would only fight batman if someone is paying him ALOT to or if batman gets in his way in a contract . He doesn’t want Batman dead cause he’s one of the only people who are a worthy challenge to him.
