He even acknowledge that his arsenal are designed for mass destruction and not only using those cause of bystanders. The brain and reflexes maybe human but the exterior sure isn't nor the targetting system included in the present Ironman systems.
"I wish I could sit him down and explain things"
"I don't want to hurt you, Spiderman!"
"Can't confront Spiderman directly without risking incinerating both him and Sanders!"
Even Spidey admits it...
"Iron Man's been toying with me!"
Actually the only reason Batman survived was because the motherbox was allocating all it's powers protecting him. Not really the same specially since Spider-man had been doing those feats for almost 30-40 years now. Batman has what? 2, one with DS, one with Superman.
Wonderwoman has hit him, Superman has done so on more than one occasion. Spiderman is STILL not bulletproof. Show me some time when Spiderman has failed to be affected by someone's punch, or something to that effect. He doesn't just shrug stuff off, hits from EVERYONE hurt him to some degree.
Slade even commented by the end of his fight with batman that although he has a healing factor and seeminly immortality, he couldn't get rid of the pain. How is that a good showing again?
Spider-man had an excuse since the 60's that he tends to ignore his SS often when he's not all to serious and the situation requires it(ex. bomb endangering people while he has to disarm it knowing all too well it's a trap). That's not even mentioning that majority of Spider-man's foe have considerable speed next to him. Slade doesn't.
The Batman one was NOT a good showing, it was a very low one for Slade, since that's not how him fighting against anything below superhumans usually works.
Similar examples for Spiderman? Punisher. Daredevil. Wolverine. He gets hit by normal humans too. I'm not saying he should, but both characters DO have showings that would put their speed at a much lower level than it really is.
And for goodness sakes, his showing with Flash and Bart are pure BS. One of them written properly can take both fighters here working together.Answer this, how exactly many good number of times has Slade hit both?
3 each. And considering the vast mountain that is Spiderman comics when compared to Deathstroke ones, I'd say that's pretty good. In fact, can you find me an example where Slade has FAILED to hit a Flash when paired against them? So far he's done it 6 times, with exactly zero-ish counterexamples.
Fighting to their fullest, Flashes definitely should take out Slade and Spiderman together. However, Flash doesn't always operate at lightspeeds. How fast do you figure he was moving when Slade hits him? Mach 10? 20? Even that would be a VERY impressive feat. PIS or not, Slade is portrayed to be able to fairly regularly hit speedsters.
