This has long been a favourite commission, one of the first I had done, and I got REALLY lucky in finding Mitch Ballard as he knew exactly how to translate what I was asking for, in a suitably comic appropriate way, and this is a classic example.

I'd asked for Deathstroke having captured Dick Grayson's Robin, circa New Teen Titans era, and posing with his catch like the big-game hunter Slade had been, maybe with Robin caught in a net or something, but Mitch had a much better idea (Which is why you should always let the artist have their say)

So Slade has indeed captured Robin, and is probably having his photo taken with his prize trophy. The plaque above the fireplace reserved for, presumably, Robin's mounted head, was a nice macabre implication without going TOO far. This is something that could easily have been a genuine cover or a splash page in the 80's.

But one thing I especially liked (which isn't always obvious from the scan quality I could originally post) and made me realise that it was lucky I'd found Mitch, was just how ANGRY he made Dick. The Teen Wonder may be pretty helpless right now, but it os clear he is NOT going to make ANYTHING easy for Slade.

(The annoyance/anger is something I instantly realised I wanted to see in my captive Robin's and so became a regular addition to my commission description, but Mitch is the one who made me realise that)

Dick is tensed up and leaning away to get as much distance between him and Slade as he can whilst tied up and with a rope around his neck, plus he is probably working away at whatever his binding his wrists as hard as he can.

I mean, just check out that GLARE! He is working on several shades of payback on Slade right this moment!

And here it is with colours by Tom Smith, one of George Perez's preferred colourists.

Look, I loved season 1 Mysaria, but in season 2 my girl couldn’t even properly give Daemon good names to kill Aemond... Like all those years as the White Worm without the right contacts to hire competent people? 😭🖐
