However , the newDeathstroke Inc. # 2sees Slade Wilson in outer space struggle with a double - bladed lightsaber . While Deathstroke did observe in the first issue that he still has some of his own weapon he still prefers , it ’s undecipherable if this lightsaber is one of his or one that Batman had Toyman 2.0 develop for his own extensive armory prior toJoker War . Either way , it ’s certainly an impressive weapon that ’s direct out of the galaxy far , far off which Deathstroke utilize tofight back against Cyborg Supermanwho ’s trying to take over the satellite .
Interestingly enough , Slade Wilson take that his new venture with T.R.U.S.T is an effort to be more of a hero for a while to see how it feels . As a result , Deathstroke is very much operate as an anti - heroin this unexampled series , and the match colors of his lightsaber blades could be interpreted as a fun nod to his current on - the - fence mentality . Beyond that , it ’s also just exciting to conceive of the scene of Batman looking into the capability of lightsaber technology while also run into Deathstroke ’s practical app of the weapon ( for a more civilised age ) .
While Slade ’s lightsaber is n’t the only piece of music of tech used in this unexampled exit ofDeathstroke Inc.(Hiro don theDark Knight ’s Bat - Armor ) , it ’s in spades the most impressive and exciting . That being enounce , the lightsaber is most likely a one - off weapon used for this particular infinite commission , though it would be cool to see the iconicStar Warsweapon sport down the line to be used once more either byDeathstrokeor perhaps byBatmanhimself in the future of the DC Universe .
