#i dont know why this is so funny to me but it is

sorry but i can’t get over the fact that one of the first books kyle made an appearance in that wasn’t his own solo or a team he was part of was deathstroke

like… deathstroke. deathstroke. one of his first pseudo-teamups with the titans was with fucking deathstroke. that makes slade one of the first big names in the mask business kyle ever willingly helped, which is absolutely hysterical like just take a second to think about the OPTICS of that

it was so soon after zero hour, this probably means bruce got back home after having to try to stop the previous green lantern from destroying the entire multiverse and within, like, a day got the news that the new lantern, who he knew fuck all about, was running around with slade fucking wilson

he probably spent the next hour hyperventilating into a paper bag
