suicide squad Archives
CBR got the exclusive shots this morning of the Suicide Squad as they are going to look on the CW TV series Arrow.
Series regular John Diggle (David Ramsey) will be recruited by Amanda Waller (Cynthia Addai-Robinson) to work with his ex-wife Lyla Michaels (Audrey Marie Anderson) for a special mission Waller tells Diggle he will need[...]
Hmm, you know, we pretty much have this in London already.
Is it me or is Justice League 3000 #2 making the case for DC's editors, having to work in rather trying circumstances? This comic certainly has had some interesting editorial issues.
So we get it, Power Girl in Suicide Squad Earth 1, for some reason[...]
So I've spent New Year's Day reading the screenplay for Suicide Squad, by Justin Marks, writer of the Street Fighter: The Legend Of Chun-Li Written in 2011, it is still being used by Warner Bros to get directors interested in taking on the project – two I know of have turned it down.
But what[...]
CBR asked the Mind MGMT creator.
Are you sticking on "Suicide Squad" past "Forever Evil," or is that only for the course of that story?
It's just for "Forever Evil" and then I'm done It's one of the things I'm scaling back on, because I don't have time It's driving me crazy to do so much[...]
Well, that's one of the DC Comics editors in New York who won't be making the move westwards in sixteen months.
Bleeding Cool understands that Wil Moss, editor on DC titles such as Flash, Green Arrow and Suicide Squad, and with long runs on the Superbooks will instead be working at Marvel Comics' offices on Monday[...]
Their only hope is to fight their way out! And in the shadows of the Universe, the Corps' worst nightmare is coming true: The Sinestro Corps is stirring!
And after getting kicked off his Birds Of Prey run before the first issue, and being a very good boy since, Jim Zub finally gets a DC comic[...]
Hang on, haven't we already done this? And the big reveal at the end… hadn't we already had this?
Pretty snowscenes though.
Suicide Squad #25
During the Crisis On Infinite Earths crossover of the eighties that kicked all this current event nonsense off, there was such a thing as a Red Sky crossover, where in some comics,[...]
Bleeding Cool already mentioned how, with David Goyer attached, Warners were looking at movie treatments for the likes of Suicide Squad, Booster Gold, Deathstroke, Team 7 and more.
Well, it looks like this will be DC Entertainment's big news for 2014.
A series of lower-prominence comic books being turned into relatively lower budget movies.
Suicide Squad is one[...]
We pointed out that Suicide Squad Vol 1: Kicked In The Teeth was down to 99 cents on the Kindle last week Well, clearly, that wasn't cheap enough, now it's only 80 cents.
But that was only for the Americans, now it's also only 45 pence for the Brits too.
We pointed out that Suicide Squad[...]
And now DC Comics won't have it any other way.
I understand that people looking at making films based on the likes of Suicide Squad, Booster Gold, Deathstroke and even Team 7 have been told that they have to partner or work with Goyer as producer.
Which is why Geoff Johns' Sandman movie project has David Goyer[...]
And if you want to buy the first volume of the New 52 Suicide Squad.
Then today is your lucky day Because you can buy that volume for just 99 cents.
It won't last long They'll fix it But with immediate digital delivery… your order won't be cancelled.

Welcome to another wonderful week of comic books on a Wednesday. So what's hitting the racks today? Well first, a little education, courtesy of Professor
So, it seems sensible to check in with Chew…
Erotic? Really? Okay then Ken Keebler, what would you make of this from Suicide Squad?
Could even you make that a bit of a turn on?
Well, Batgirl, wasted milk and cookies would make me worry too.
That's more like it, Archer of Archer & Armstrong at least has an[...]

Ales Kot has written on his Tumblr;
Since the solicitations for October's DC titles came out, I was repeatedly asked if I am no longer writing Suicide Squad Yes, Matt Kindt is writing SS #24 and I am no longer writing Suicide Squad Matt's "3 Story" is one of my favorite graphic novels I read in[...]
Ales Kot came onto the Suicide Squad comic at DC with a bit of a bang Previously writing comics at Image Comics with, frankly, a reputation for being a bit of an arty poser, the book went down rather well It was sparky, genuinely edgy in places, and reinvented a few characters for the better[...]
(Suicide Squad)
Yeah, Badoon, tell me about it (Guardians Of The Galaxy)
Looks like The Walking Dead has its own Brotherhood/Sisterhood issues It's a book, and indeed TV show, that has received criticism for its gender politics over the years, but it certainly doesn't try to avoid the issue.
Really like this opening of Avenging Spider-Man[...]

James Gordon Jr is an unlikely star of the New 52, popping up in Batman, Batgirl and now Suicide Squad! I'll give mythoughts on this higher profile for the son of Commissioner Jim Gordon Is this a fair thing to do to Jim Gordon? And is James Gordon Jr a good villain for[...]

Alasdair Stuart writes for Bleeding Cool
I was always rather fond of Suicide Squad The combination of moral ambiguity, superpowers and deniable espionage is a heady one and when the book's at its best it reads like very little else on the market Issue 20, out this week, sees a new writer take over; Ales Kot,[...]

In a very special episode of the Pop Culture Hound podcast, I'm joined by the legendary John Ostrander and upcoming writer Ales Kot to discuss their work on Suicide Squad We look at the pressure on writers today, age-ism in comics, what it takes to make a good story, and how to expand[...]
The new Suicide Squad #20 is a pretty decent comic, Ales Kot's debut working for DC Comics Ales has a bit of a reputation as a hipster and started by having King Shark reading the works of Rumi while ordering vegetarian Russian food might only underline that.
But it's a transformative moment for the book, details[...]
We told you there were plenty of creative changes coming at DC, but even we didn't expect this much.
DC Comics is continuing its recruitment policy from the likes of Image Comics, by signing up the writer of Wild Children and Change, Ales Kot, to write Suicide Squad, joined by new artist Timothy Green II.
No[...]
Too far, SUICIDE SQUAD #15 Unlike the other books there were no redeeming qualities to offset the sheer amateurish gore of the thing Adam Glass tried to topple the Joker-Harley dynamic much like what Gail did in BATGIRL, but this was a far less successful take, going against the grain of the character.
IN HIS SHOES
You're[...]
But give it time.
Raw, unslabbed copies of Suicide Squad #14, which went on sale today, are selling copies on eBay for $14.95
Considering it only went on sale a few hours ago at $2.99, that's not bad And yes, it's one of the Joker die cut covers as Batman: Death of The Family And the[...]
And there we have it. Saucer Country out and says it, conflating conspiracy theories about political assassination and alien abduction, and giving one who
Left to right, that's Kurt Lance, Grifter, Bronson, Dinah Drake, Amanda Waller (looking a little but chunkier than we've seen her of late), Slade Wilson and Alex Fairchild.
He put them all in a swamp! Etc etc etc.,..
Though you might want to read Team 7 issue zero first, also out today, before reading Deathstroke 0.And then[...]
And Nightwing is really doing rather well, isn't it? I knew Suicide Squad had been getting attention, but Nightwing had slipped me by.
Issue 1 is selling at around $25 on eBay, many of the other issues are getting $5 each, but issue 4 has been selling copies for up to $20 For no other reason[...]
Read this comic.
I may slowly be starting to get my head into the right gear to read Suicide Squad That's a cynical, nihilist state in which no one matters, no one es for each other, people are as ephemeral as objects, and… I don't really mind It's part of the fun, a dazzingly run through[...]
