Geo-Force vs. Deathstroke
May. 7th, 2012 07:51 pm7 pages from LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT, a one-shot by Brian Meltzer and Adam Kubert. It has Deathstroke saying he used his Crazy Juice on Terra, as he used on Rose/Ravager and Cassandra/Batgirl.


Ollie! Roy! Lian! (I still feel a little ripped off that we never got to see how Bruce Wayne reacted to Lian's death, Roy going nuts and Ollie killing Prometheus.)

Did Geo-Force just use a Jim Kirk line on Deathstroke? (Though this came out about a year before the 2009 Star Trek movie.)

Pwned. With a capital P.

I know there were no "older" Teen Titans in the post-FLASHPOINT DCU, but I am curious if they will ever redo or refer to "The Judas Contract" and if Wilson's Crazy Juice will play a role. As much as I like Marv Wolfman, there *should* be a better explanation than "Tara Markov was a bad person who hated the Titans for no reason."
This one-shot ended with Hal Jordan being all, "Right, like the world is really going to end."

By the looks of it (and the introduction of a new Terra almost free from the Titans/JC baggage) DC wanted to redeem Terra but by doing this they made Deathstroke (their big assassin fanboy crush) very sleazy. I mean, he not only supposedly drugged a young girl but also had sex with her in that drugged state. And this guy's suppose to be an anti-hero with a moral code.
It makes some of the reasoning why the reboot wiped out The Judas Contract and now has a new Terra who could be Tara Markov, a blonde Atlee, or another entirely new female geomancer with the same name a little more clearer.
