Eh, that's just a matter of personal preference then in terms of Deathstroke vs Batman :p Either way, yes, I at least put them on the same skill level, roughly. Close enough, anyway.<br/><br/>And as for the whole escape thing, well, that was my assumption. I haven't followed as closely as I should have, I assume Slade was there to steal fancy tech for someone, and now that he's being confronted, should probably make his escape now. Because, truly, I just cannot think of a reason how he could be too much for that collection to handle. These aren't the Teen Titans that he's dominating, after all. He can give them a good showing, but without severely hampering the heroes (ie. filling the Labs with Kryptonite gas, creating a moral dilemma where the heroes must choose between saving innocents or stopping him, etc.) I don't see how he can really defeat them.<br/><br/>Trust me, I love Deathstroke, he is my favorite character hands-down. But those are just the cards he has been dealt, and they don't look good for him :p
