Under the cut are my favourite moments featuring Dick, Damian and Slade. This issue gave me a happy, too. A big one.
Damian is 'possessed' by Deathstroke. Slade can control his actions. Slade, through Damian, attacks Dick. Slade wants Dick to know it was he who crippled him.
Parents, when you're out and about, this is how you get your kid to stay where you can see him. Also works with dogs outside supermarkets.
Biatch.
I loved this bit because it's Dick saying he wants to keep Damian, which for a kid like Damian must mean the world even though he'll never admit it. Notice also that while Talia refers to Dick as Mister Grayson in a terribly patronising way, Damian calls him Batman. Respect.

I love the loyalty Damian is showing. He's part of the family now. Check the family banter in Red Robin #12. Yay, I think we get to keep him!
And lastly, just to jump back a little in the issue:
Thank you, yes, at last! I've been waiting FOREVER for this moment. It's taken too long and I hope it really is a trailer and there's a full confrontation on its way, complete with hitting, grabbing and sex name-calling. FIGHT!
