Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

ita, the latest issue of Teen Titans gives the impression that Deathstroke has been pumping her full of his wacky serum thingie, and that that's what made her go all bad. Or, at least, it's implied that that's the reason for her going bad.

Dude, copout.

Maybe. It could still play out in a manner pleasing to me.
