Suicide Squad Canceled With January's #50… Just in Time for an Azzarello Relaunch?

Published Mon, 15 Oct 2018 22:30:00 -0500

The pieces are falling into place for another Bleeding Cool rumour to come true, meaning Bleeding Cool's Rumourmonger-in-Chief Rich Johnston, even though he's currently sleeping, is currently rubbing his fingers together and sleep-whispering… pip pip!

Suicide Squad #50 is listed as the final issue for the series in DC's January solicitations, which seems like a poor time for a cancelation, what with James Gunn reportedly signing on to write the Suicide Squad movie sequel. Then again, it's never a bad time for a relaunch, and #50 is a nice round number to soak in anniversary issue sales before relaunching with even bigger sales for a brand new #1.

With Brian Azzarello writing, as Bleeding Cool predicted? Perhaps we'll learn more soon.
