And I was absolutely shocked at how certain characters were being used; the setup was so perfect that I bought it, even though this storyline makes perfect sense. I did have a 'why is he here' sense, but I figured it was a bureaucratic mistake, that his power would end up being incredibly useful at...
The writer inserts a character who uses meta devices to take down usual comic book tropes, and to do so lovingly. It simply teases, without suggesting that this is wrong. Every genre has its tropes, like the HEA (Happily Ever After) in romances. I bring this up in particular to illustrated a p...
This is not a spoiler, as it is on the cover. Or if it is a spoiler, it's only as much a spoiler as the cover is. And I'm not sure how I feel about this: Flag in love with Harley is way more messed up than the Suicide Squad has ever been, aka I don't buy it. That doesn't stop this from being ...
This is what you get because I am completely lame and not funny at all. This has turned out to be more of an extended story than I expected, but a lot of fun.
It's nice to see the old school meet the new school, especially since this story is compelling and the interactions are realistic, with the usual twists and turns I'd expect to find in comics. The side story ties into the main story - and by side story I mean the last couple pages at the back t...
I'm finding him an... underused character in this, at least as of late, and it's disappointing. I still find him one of the most dynamic character on this team and the fact that Killer Croc is in love with June Moon doesn't really make up for that, despite the fact that how that relationship will ...
This is one that has highs and lows for me: I thought it had to go somewhere more quickly at one point, but when it's at it's paranoiac best, it really just works. It gets super creepy, all the while explaining why Waller is acting so out of character, furthering Katana's character, and pulling th...
Less directly said about the Croc/Enchantress relationship, and more focus on getting things done. In this case, Waller orders the team to go after Killer Frost and Batman - and they start with Frost. Still, they all know this will get Batman's attention. There's more about Killer Frost and Diab...
In fact, she might have convoluted, terrible plans on how to get her team out of convoluted, terrible things happening to them, but she had a plan. A plan that, shockingly, worked, even if it ended up pitting a couple of her team members against each other for a while. That seems very Harley: pr...
One of the things I loved about the original suicide squad was how political it was. How it created strong female characters. It had things to say, and it said them, and I think this might be why it felt so directed. Pointedly so. I'm loving this incarnation of the Squad, but I think partin...
