Biography[]
Season 10[]
When the Vigilante Registration Act passed and Rick Flag's Suicide Squad started to act against it, Slade Wilson was one of the officials that supported the VRA. He began to push more stringent measures to control and even murder super powered heroes of the United States. Thinking they were like awaiting Dictators, he started to build bases to imprison and use the heroes abilities, forcing them to work for the Government.
He mainly desires Mera and Aquaman after they destroyed one of his bases. To learn what Wilson knew, Oliver Queen decided to register, while Lois Lane meanwhile confronted Slade. She learned that Slade is a suspected war crime known for torture and illegal methods of torture and interrogation but was too late to warn Oliver and A.C.
Slade captures both of them and started his brutal methods of interrogation. Clark Kent and Mera freed both of them but Slade started a self destruction protocol of the base they were all still in. Clark confronts Slade who locked him inside a Kryptonite Cage. When Clark pleads with Slade to let him save him, Slade refuses, wanting to die instead of being rescued by an abomination like Clark.
Somehow both Clark and Slade survived the explosion but Slade appeared to be in a hospital lab and lost his right eye. Slade is later saved from death by Darkseid with advanced military technology, losing his right eye but gaining healing abilities in the process. An Omega symbol was seen imprinted on Slade's skull thus proving that he had been corrupted by the Darkness.
Slade later appeared on the news and made a statement framing Oliver Queen for the explosion of the Government holding cells turning the all world against the league. He arranges for the League's key supporters Emil Hamilton, Lois Lane, Tess Mercer to be captured and held at the Daily Planet for interrogation about the League's whereabouts. All three of them escape the custody with the help of Clark and Cat Grant.
Later Slade finds Lois sneaking in to Oliver's office at Luthorcorp and held her hostage with a gun. Lois said they can talk it out and Slade decides not to shoot her, but she smashes a glass on his head. He grabs her and throws her against a table, temporarily knocking her out. She fought back, yet Slade overpowered her. As he was about to kill her, Hawkman arrives and fought Wilson. While they fought, Slade stabs Hawkman in the back but a explosion occurs and Slade is thrown to his defeat, but the İmpact causes Lois to fall from the building.
Slade survives the explosion with minimal damage and he was about to get away but confronted by Clark, he sends Slade to the Phantom Zone. Clark tells Tess after the darkness gone and everything returns to normal he will bring Slade back from the Zone and put on trial. When Slade was sent back to Earth from Phantom Zone by Zod, he was found in a street corner unconscious. Slade currently lies in a coma in a military base.
