He almost reacted fast enough for the bullet :(
Yeah today's episode was pretty good.
Deathstroke is just that good. I wonder how bad he beat the teams ass tho 😂

Anyone thinking anybody but Dawn is dying is bugging. Hank has had way too many death flags to die.
It was short as hell but I can't think of a team fight on any of these comic shows as hype as this was .
I also kinda like how the show just doesn't care if you aren't sure how something happens
*Doctor Light just disappears after a flash*
"Well he has invisibility and flight in the comics, maybe that?"
*Light uses his power on the lasso of truth*
"its a thing in the comics"
*Aqualad taking direct blasts from Doctor Light without injury*
"Atlantean skin!?"
Like its not a big deal but I feel like Flash would immediately stop and have Cisco rationalize each to the audience.

Yeah, how does a bullet penetrate his skin? We saw in the Aquaman movie that Arthur is bulletproof and even in the comics he has it as well. I realize it was a .50 cal sniper rifle, but still.
Some energies are different from X and Y. He may be be able to stop so-and-so energy but not this-or-that energy.
Didn't really care for the episode. I wanted more focus on Donna, but I'm disappointed it was mostly framed around this romance. Which they did not sell me on in a single episode.
Hank and Dawn continue to be the most boring part of the show.

James Wan specifically said that Aquaman was not bulletproof lol.
Maybe someday we will get someone in power that prefers it.
In the meantime i'll take all the Dick and Jason on this I can get because Birds of Prey is waiting around that corner to hurt me with my girl Cass in name only.
The window background of San Francisco is noticeably fake. Sunset light yet the background is high noon
I'm just glad this season got a Donna story even though Aqualad romance felt awkward , but the episode needed to kill two birds with one stone. The emotional stake of Aqualad going away, and the turn of the team.
this was easily one of the worst episodes in the series so far
dialgoue was the most boilerplate romcom nonsense, which was surprising because they usually do ok writing Hawk/Dove, Dove/Dick, Raven/Beast Boy. I'll just chalk it up to the writer not knowing how to do a believable romance AND a meaningful death in the span of an episode.

Jeez, Aqualad went out like a bitch. I was expecting some epic shit where DS wrecks them all but decides to make an example out of AL.
Cool suit though and I've been wondering, was he the target or was it Donna? He seemed to step in front of the bullet and DS took another shot.

The emotional stake with Aqualad would have been just as strong, if not stronger, if it wasn't framed as a romance. Except for Hank and Dawn, these are people who have known each other since they were 12. That's enough for me to buy how traumatic it is for one of them to die. Especially if it was the first person of their generation. I wish they had focused on that instead of the romance.
Hank has a different road if they go anything like his comic story .
New 52 version is a train wreck so who knows if they go that way.
I want to see Donna, Dick and at least Garth in action as 12 year olds next season.
They did pretty good for a first shot at Aqualad, next time they should give either Aqualad the water swords though so they don't have such limited action without turning into a punch and kick guy.

It is like a speedrun version of "burry your gays" (lgbt in this case =P) ... I think him being dead in present time before he is properly introduced is a new record to the already ridiculously fast moment in Umbrella Academy
Jericho is Deathstroke's son, Dick is going to get to him by using Jericho.
in the present day they said Jericho died so shit is about to go down

Unless the son that died was Garth, the first Ravager. I don't recall if Rose said Jericho died or simply "her brother."
Maybe they were special bullets? If he was going after super powered people, it'd make sense.
Also, so far, this Slade has been more Deadshot than Deathstroke. Unrelated, but the cg sword looked remarkably bad.
Rose just said her brother, but in the scene where Jason and Gar were looking into Deathstroke they explicitly said Jericho died.
Yeah but they were clearly punch lasers. Unnamed characters get powerful kill lasers but heroes get punch lasers.
Deathstroke had plot powered bullets.
LMAO, dude was just non-stop going for it, gotta give him some props.
I don't know why people are so surprised a bullet took Garth down when Dr. Light's lasers (which seem to vary wildly in terms of damage inflicted) didn't kill him. One was him actively guarding something and the other was a surprise attack.
I mean even Jason Todd blocked one of Light's blasts with just his cape.
It definitely hurt him though if you look closely at the Hawk and Dove attack Aqualad is laying there out cold.

Yeah, the sustained energy damage certainly fucked him up, but it's not a huge surprise that a sniper bullet out of literally nowhere was able to hurt him.
The funny part was I was literally waiting for it to happen in every scene he was in with a wide shot. I could just smell it coming and they KEPT using wide shots to throw the scent off.
Why? All the episode happened 5 years ago, she did stay and not went to Themyscira. She is a prominent member in the present. I don't thing the story will be going to a revenge one again (that already happened when the original Titans went after Jericho/Deathstroke).
Plus the actress is credited as regular this season.
I thought he was going to get one through the side of the dome when the sex scene started honest.
If Deathstroke got a contract to kill a metahuman, I'm surprised people wouldn't think that he'd be given bullets special for the job. Or at least have the capacity to do his own research and get the required bullets.
He's a mercenary for hire. It's what he does.
Hell, he probably asked Black Manta about the best metal to use to kill an Atlantean.
Wonder if it was Light who hired him to get back at the Titans.
In the past timeline? I doubt it. It kinda seemed like Slade was already hired to take them down when they first went after Light, and Light didn't really seem like a nemesis of theirs at that point either.
In the present timeline...also nah, since it kinda seems like Slade broke him out of jail. I suppose he could've found a way to pay him from inside jail though.
Yeah, I don't think anybody hired Slade in the present, he just seems to want revenge for whatever happened 5 years ago (probably Jericho).
But in the past, I have no idea who'd hired him. Jillian might've been his real target though.
But was Aqualad the actual target or was Donna? The scene looked like he was able to see the fire of the gun and put himself in front of her.
Yeah, Garth seemed to be collateral damage and not his target at all.
I think it was Donna because he took another shot instead of just leaving.
