5 Criminally Overlooked Comics Everyone Should Be Reading

4. Deathstroke

In comparison to the New 52 incarnation of Deathstroke, Christopher Priest's take on the character is - and there's not really any other way of putting it - godly.

The books again sees the Terminator go up against the ultimate badasses of the DC Universe, most notably Batman and Ra's Al Ghul, in very satisfying way, unlike the character's previous book. As such, Deathstroke is finally seems to be being presented as the powerhouse he truly is, rather than a guy who sometimes battles a knockoff version of the Bat on the CW.

Whether you haven't read any of the character's earlier books or if you were left wanting something more from the 2014 series, then this current comic is a great place to get (back) into the world of Deathstroke.
