END OF STORY ARC Rion and the surviving cadets from the Demon Killer University are taught valuable life lessons about survival, trust and honor by rogue demon killer, Greyhound. With their plans drawn to enter Edenwood and search for the "Legends," first they must infiltrate the demon-occupied Fortress South and take back Rion's book of maps. Rion's foe, Evaniel, is waiting for a fight to the death. But will he have help defeating Rion from an unlikely ally? The stunning conclusion of Edenwood's first big arc happens here!

Flashbacks reveal that young Rion and his Demon Killer mentor, Bastille, are closing in on the Black Lake Trio, who Bastille has been hunting throughout the Edenwood. Current-day Rion and his new allies discover a gang of demons who are responsible for the purge of the last surviving Demon Killers. Rion must decide to stay and fight demons in the Open Lands or return to Edenwood, where he faces almost certain death at the hands of the Demon Kings and their army. A TRAITOR is discovered within the Witch War Council.

Rion is put to the test in an environment surrounded by fear and deception. An old friend returns bearing gifts and a mission that could change the course of the war. Entering Edenwood and rescuing his friends from their dark paths is a non-negotiable before he accepts the suicidal mission from the Witch War Council.

Rion finds himself deep inside Edenwood and immediately on the run from the demon military, which consists of armored tank divisions and patrolling beasts with razor-sharp teeth. Rion sees the beauty and the horrors of this magical place before meeting powerful allies who question how he acquired the armor of one of the greatest demon killers in history.

TAKEN Nobody defeats Deathstroke. Slade Wilson has killed a Titan, held his own against the God of War and gone punch for punch with Superman and lived to tell the tale. But someone has found the one chink in Deathstroke’s armor… Now his daughter, Rose, has gone missing, taken by none other than Harley Quinn. Harley intends to force Slade to make good on an old promise, and her ultimatum is simple: to find his daughter, he’ll have to kill Amanda Waller, head of the Suicide Squad and Harley’s jailor. But how far can anyone trust the unbalanced Harley? When Deathstroke’s intel pits him against everyone from Lex Luthor’s army of Bizarros to Red Hood, it’s clear that there’s more to this puzzle than meets the eye. Deathstroke wants answers, but more importantly, he wants his daughter back. And he’s not about to let anyone stand in his way! Writers James Bonny (THE SAVAGE HAWKMAN) and Tony S. Daniel (DETECTIVE COMICS) and artists Tyler Kirkham (TEEN TITANS) and Paolo Pantalena (RED HOOD/ARSENAL) set Deathstroke on his most important mission yet in DEATHSTROKE VOL. 3: SUICIDE RUN! Collects issues #11-16.

The world’s deadliest assassin faces the fight of his life. If it can be killed, Slade Wilson, a.k.a. Deathstroke the Terminator, assassin for hire, will find a way to kill it. At least, that’s what he tells his employers. But this next contract may be too much for even Deathstroke to handle. Slade’s newest assignment comes from Hephaestus himself, armorer to the gods of Olympus. In order to reach his target Lapetus, the imprisoned god of mortality, Slade will have to travel through the gates of Tartarus on the Amazon homeland of Themyscira. To protect her home and fellow Amazons, Wonder Woman will do whatever it takes to stop Slade on his fool’s errand, and Superman is right by her side. With the Man of Steel, the God of War and an army of the undead out for his blood, this final fight might just be a dead end for Deathstroke!
