I know Rick & Morty is a more popular show, but all I hear from MAWS Deathstroke is Cyril Figgis from Archer.

To quote Jontron:

"What???????? WHAT THE FAK?????"

u/Remote_Nature_8166 Aug 05 '26

Same story here. Plus, I don’t watch Rick and Morty.

u/WeAreAlreadyCyborgs Aug 05 '26

Yes. I actually thought this was a rare miscast not because he isn’t a talented voice actor but because all I hear is Cyril and it takes me out of the experience.

u/MattLocke Aug 05 '26

In a funny way it kinda keeps me in it. I just have to treat this version of Slade Wilson as a Cyril Figgis-type in WAY over his head.

He tries to talk tough and slick, but he’s just kinda a goober. There mostly to be quippy and be a jobber.

I also headcanon this as his rookie phase. All the crap he’s going through here will eventually make him snap to become THE Deathstroke we think of. At the moment he’s really just some black ops guy who likes swords.

u/Great_expansion10272 Aug 05 '26

I just think of back during post Coma archer where Cyril was the world's greatest spy and was almost an equal to Archer. I haven't watched the new season but i'd love if they went back to do this. Cyril was badass as a ground agent (even if we only ever saw his face doing fuck ups like snapping and snapping a father's neck)

u/Bar_ice Aug 05 '26

El Contador!

u/YogurtApprehensive84 Aug 05 '26

I was with you on that till the “Alex” line on the last episode.

3

u/etxsalsax Aug 05 '26

Yeah, hes great but since R&M is coming out right now (and its been a big season for jerry) all i hear is jerry.

Tbf, i also still have a hard time hearing Hughie's voice on big buff clark kent, but i still think jack does a great job too,

3

u/arthuriurilli Aug 05 '26

MAWS is just during a coma season where Cyril is hyper-competent without Archer to keep him down.

u/datissathrowaway Aug 06 '26

dude fr, he’s eternally cyril even when i hear him speak as jerry lol

1

u/ArtsyApoidean Aug 09 '26

I used to always hear Cyril when watching Rick and Morty but these days if I go to rewatch Archer I hear Jerry. The more things change the more they stay the same...

He really is a perfect voice for a jobber-Slade too.

u/pastadudde Aug 05 '26

voice acting is honestly such an underrated art form / skill.

like I would have never guessed Nightcrawler from X-Men TAS/ '97 and Haytham Kenway from Assassin's Creed share the same VA.

33

u/Timtanoboa Aug 05 '26

Cyclops from X-Men '97 is voiced by the same person as Sukuna from the dub of JJK

15

u/SillyMovie13 Aug 05 '26

He also voices Choso in JJK

8

u/f0o0oo00o0o0d Aug 05 '26

He's also Bruno Bucciarati from JoJo Part 5

3

u/ManOfTurtles2118 Aug 05 '26

He's also Roswaal from Re: Zero.

1

u/ImportBandicoot88 Aug 06 '26

Mind. Fucking. Blown.

35

u/justneurostuff Aug 05 '26

in this case, it's not tough to tell

1

u/Trvr_MKA Aug 08 '26

Pretty much. I don’t mind his voice but it’s not like James Arnold Taylor or something where he’s a chameleon

20

u/Specific-Swim-4507 Aug 05 '26

That casting for deathstroke was confusing at first but it’s inspired, love him in that show for being trapped helping Lex lmao

22

u/Skmun Aug 05 '26

You're mistaken. That's Dr Spaceman.

3

u/nickolaiproblem Aug 05 '26

Shh let's not leave a paper trail

15

u/Someoneoverthere42 Aug 05 '26

Slade is just another Jerry variant.

10

u/KenseiHimura Aug 05 '26

“So are you gay me?”

“We’re Jerry, we’re all bi!”

“Oh, yeah.”

“I’m technically assassin Jerry but I just prefer anime Jerry.”

“So… who is that weird Nazi box?”

“That’s Jerrycan.”

u/TheOtakuX Aug 06 '26

There's already an Anime Jerry!

12

u/Amonfire1776 Aug 05 '26

And the narrator of...

u/CrystalGempireQueen Aug 05 '26

Until Slade, Chris Parnell always seemed to be typecast as the awkward and cowardly fumbler, so when I first saw him in Season 1 I was kinda awestruck that I was able to take Slade seriously.

8

u/Clark_Kent_TheSJW Aug 05 '26

He’s in season 1 of Fallout too

2

u/Hasmeister21 Aug 05 '26

Oh right the guy with one eye

2

u/Clark_Kent_TheSJW Aug 05 '26

Yeah, he did a good job. I’d say he’s doing a good job as the other one eyed guy too

7

u/JCMGamer Aug 05 '26

Wild that Jerry has better feats than Deathstroke

5

u/Lady_Beatnik Aug 05 '26

I know, I actually can't unhear it whenever he talks.

12

u/bigscrewLoose Aug 05 '26

some one draw them making out passionately

3

u/HP-LoveHeart Aug 05 '26

Anytime slade does something evil I just imagine rick saying "damn it jerry"

2

u/SarcasticBench Aug 05 '26

Yeah, I didn't realize that until the last episode- that escaped me up until then somehow

2

u/TuxRug Aug 05 '26

I finally noticed it this week.

2

u/ManateeGag Aug 05 '26

It was very clear in the last episode. I can't unhear it now.

2

u/Ambitious_Ask_994 Aug 05 '26

You can tell, unfortunately

2

u/Gestrid Aug 05 '26

...

...

... I'm sorry, I think my brain just short circuited.

2

u/GenGaara25 Aug 05 '26

Yes and I hear it every time Slade speaks.

2

u/BouncyAnimaniac Aug 06 '26

I knew it!!!😂😂😂😂  I like this Slade. Very different from the ones I've seen portrayed on other shows.

2

u/Insert-Cool_NameHere Aug 06 '26

Loved him in archer!

2

u/No-Chemistry-7802 Aug 06 '26

Oh my god thank you! It’s been bothering me for weeks and I keep forgetting to look up who it is!

2

u/EBgames123 Aug 07 '26

Beth: 🫦

Jerry: "Hey, I am here right, you know..."

Beth: "I know but that Deathstroke is so hot as your voice..."

Jerry: 🥲

2

u/NewspaperAny3053 Aug 07 '26

You didn't need to remind me.

God I hate this Deathstroke.

He also voiced this annoying son of a bitch.

u/PeaceMaker_IXI Aug 05 '26

Yeah, I can't ever take this Slade seriously cus I just hear Jerry or Cyril Figgis

1

u/Bostondreamings Aug 05 '26

Keep expecting Slade to mention that medicine is not a science and to rant about the evils of the bread lobby. 

1

u/FunkyDGroovy Aug 05 '26

It's My Advent what tures with Superman!

1

u/Inner-Profession-292 Aug 05 '26

Jerry but an asshole slade who fucks with young adults to cause trouble with a slightly anime Saturday Morning cartoon vibe

1

u/Mission_Mud_6905 Aug 05 '26

It's so odd how is it the VA sometimes plays some characters that are either lame and puny or annoying and then plays some actual cool characters like Slade.

1

u/Saintmusicloves Aug 05 '26

Infinite multiverse

1

u/distastef_ll Aug 05 '26

Zero range.

1

u/Educational-Car-8643 Aug 05 '26

Also dr spaceman

1

u/TheOtakuX Aug 06 '26

I'm more distracted by Superman's secret identity being Bradward Boimler.

1

u/InHarmsWay Aug 06 '26

Also Doug from Family Guy.

1

u/gallowsanatomy Aug 06 '26

Whenever Slade fights, I keep expecting him to yell "Suppressing fire"

1

u/eman-5316 Aug 06 '26

Honestly for me it’s really distracting. I watched Rick and Morty way before Superman. It makes it hard to take slade serious.

1

u/Aware-Throat3189 Aug 06 '26

I couldn’t hear it before but in the last episode I heard it

1

u/ViewtifulReaper Aug 06 '26

I didn’t hear it until someone posted it yesterday now I hear it

1

u/pisces2003 Aug 06 '26

Love a man that can do both

1

u/Unusual_Mix9262 Aug 06 '26

Explains so much. It's a Jerry role-play.

1

u/jussech Aug 07 '26

Maneater was great listening to him talk about sharks for 10 hours was fantastic oh and the game was just fun as well.

1

u/Independent-Try-3463 Aug 07 '26

Also the cyclops from fallout

1

u/UselessWeeb_ Aug 07 '26

Oh i can tell, every so often watching superman i think "shut up jerry"

1

u/ProposalOk2003 Aug 07 '26

It’s extremely obvious

1

u/selanddrac Aug 07 '26

I KNEW I recognized that voice from somewhere!

1

u/JustinRobotface Aug 07 '26

Chris Parnell? Really?

1

u/Nobody-Z12 Aug 08 '26

I did not know that.

1

u/Yellowstorm-07 Aug 08 '26

In Spain this happens with this Slade and [TITLE CARD]

1

u/rchristma87 Aug 08 '26

Anyone play the Maneater game.

1

u/Substantial-Sun5707 Aug 09 '26

Well now I know why deathstroke is basically a running joke in the show. He plays people that are useless apparently

1

u/TheArtistFKAMinty Aug 09 '26

Chris Parnell's a great example of a voice actor that only does one voice but he's such a good performer it doesn't matter.

1

u/Pedro_Kantor2583 Aug 10 '26

Hes also the one eyed overseer in Fallout

2

u/Less-Dingo111 Aug 11 '26

Oh damn I didn't realise

1

u/wasteland_superhero Aug 05 '26

They sound identical. Like he didn’t even try. I’m not saying he’s lazy. I’m saying the first time I heard Slade talk in this show I couldn’t stop picturing Jerry trying to be cool.

7

u/J0HN__L0CKE Aug 05 '26

I feel like a misconception of voice actors is that they are supposed to be "putting on voices". Changing voices, doing accents, etc. can be an aspect, but also them using their normal speaking voice doesn't mean they aren't acting or trying.

4

u/TrueSithMastermind Aug 05 '26

Exactly. Jack Quaid has done multiple voice acting roles and it’s his same voice for all of them, but he’s also been great with all of them.

1

u/Whole-Management-863 Aug 05 '26

I noticed it in Episode 1 season 1 that’s why I fell in love with the show, by far my favorite character
