Wow nice pics man!!! Just started reading Vol 1 (Legacy) of the new 52.Does anyone know if this guy has hit retail yet?

I haven't run into the new Deathstroke in the books I read yet, but the couple I've browsed through he looks bad ass.

RE: Retail - yeah, he's officially out. Any place that carries Diamond Comics stuff (aka local comic shop) and online retailers should have them. I got mine from BBTS last week.

Looks like a really cool figure. I'll have to try and stop by the one comic book shop we have around here to see if they have him. Might become my first DCD/DCC figure. Though if I get him, I'll have to track down a GA too... That's actually the reason I don't have any plans to get the Arkham Origins figure, no GA equivalent. Which probably sounds kinda stupid...

It looks great, but it seems tough to get a good pose out of him with limited articulation. I can see why they did it, though: both the AO Deathstroke as well as the one from the Arrow two-pack seem to have great articulation, so I can't fault them for this one.

Nice, that's a great read. Unfortunately things go downhill considerably once Liefeld takes over writing and art in vol. 2, so much so that it was canceled afterward. It still hurts...

You watch Arrow, right? If so, that's not stupid at all. I don't think Deathstroke was ever really considered a Green Arrow villain until Arrow came along, but now it's tough not to associate him with GA. I love how much attention DS is getting since the show started.

I do, and I'm absolutely loving it. I did start getting into the comics beforehand, but got behind and haven't had a chance to get caught up. I know Deathstroke isn't traditionally a major villain for GA, but since Arrow has been a big part of me learning about the character, it's hard for me to not think of him as one of GA's main baddies. Sort of like Two-Face or the Joker to Batman.

I'm hoping to get caught up with the comics... or at least everything since the n52 started. I'll probably track down the trades rather than trying to get all the single issues I've missed. I don't no why, but I stopped after issue #5... so I'm a bit behind. I'm also looking into reading the Deathstroke comic.
