Deathstroke: Knight & Dragons Review - 7 Ups & 1 Down From The Series Premiere

5. The Emphasis On The Whole Wilson Family

Slade obviously gets top billing, but he isn't the only member of his family to make an appearance on the show as its essentially built around the entire Wilson family.

As the titular assassin struggles with his Deathstroke duties, his wife Adeline and son Joe eagerly await his return from his so-called business trip, and it's these character dynamics that ultimately sets the stage for some rich and compelling conflict as the mother and father war over his current excursions - and his previous ones.

It's clear now that this isn't just Deathstroke's story, and if the writers continue to handle all of that familial drama in the way that they did in the premiere, we're in for one heck of a ride.
