''Deathstroke Inc.'' is a comic book launched as part of the ComicBook/DCInfiniteFrontier initiative. Written by Creator/JoshuaWilliamson and drawn by Howard Porter, the series began in September of 2021.
After the struggles that he has gone through in trying to fight his nature, Slade Wilson has decided to once again don the mask of ComicBook/{{Deathstroke}}. However, he wants to direct it in the right direction, so he joins up with the organisation T.R.U.S.T., who task him with taking down supervillains. Of course, nobody really trusts Deathstroke of all people to stay on the straight and narrow, so he's partnered with Dinah Lance, the second ComicBook/BlackCanary.
The series will crossover with two of Williamson's other titles, [[ComicBook/BatmanJoshuaWilliamson Batman]] and ComicBook/Robin2021, for the ''Shadow War'' crossover.
!!''Deathstroke, Inc.'' provides examples of:
* BodyHorror: H.I.V.E.'s human incubation has transformed one man's ''entire head'' into a beehive.
* TheChessmaster: Juliette Ballantine is using Deathstroke, Black Canary and Hiro to further her own secret agenda, and realises that getting Dinah on side could lead to even more superhero recruits. She's essentially creating her own strike force to take out those who refuse to align with her.
* CoversAlwaysLie: A number of issue #1's covers feature Batman, and one even says "featuring Batman". He does not appear in the story, though some of his gadgets do.
* GenderFlip: Juliette Ballantine is a female incarnation of [[spoiler: Libra]].
* TheManBehindTheMan: Juliette is working for ''someone'', but it's not clear who. They're hidden, but they are directing her actions broadly, although she has a degree of autonomy.
* MissionControl: Hiro Okamura, the second Toyman, funcitons as this for Slade and Dinah.
* TheMole: Dinah is actually working undercover within T.R.U.S.T. after Oracle learned they had acquired Batman's equipment.
* PoweredArmour: Hiro uses one of Batman's old suits to take part in an outer space mission. While he was ''meant'' to be remotely piloting it, he actually wore the thing and joined in-person against orders.
* {{Pun}}: In issue #2, Hiro needs to hack a device to get the Weird out of it safely. Slade cuts the cables that have him plugged into it, saying he's also "hacking".
* TheresNoKillLikeOverkill: Slade brings a minigun to attack what he ''thinks'' is a H.I.V.E. training facility where everyone is posing as suburban Americans. It turns out they're incubators, but not once is the minigun actually necessary.
* WhamShot: Issue three ends with the revelation that Juliette Ballantine is [[spoiler: A gender flipped Libra]].
