New Suicide Squad, Volume 1: Pure Insanity by Jeremy Roberts, Batt, Tom Derenick, Norm Rapmund, Mark Irwin, Rob Hunter, Sean Ryan, Trevor Scott, Vicente Cifuentes, Scott Hanna
4.0
Setting the world’s most dangerous super-criminals against the most insidious threats to national security: that’s the idea behind the elite black-ops unit officially designated as Task Force X. It’s perfect…on paper.
But the real world rarely goes according to plan. Threats evolve. Teammates turn on each other. Blood and betrayals flow like rivers. And that’s why Task Force X is better known as the Suicide Squad.
Vic Sage aims to change the equation. Replacing Amanda Waller as the puppet-master of Suicide Squad’s motley crew, he’s introducing wild cards like Deathstroke and the Joker’s Daughter to whip the existing team-Deadshot, Harley Quinn, and Black Manta-into shape. But the world’s deadliest assassin and the Clown Princess of Crime have ideas of their own…and no explosive implants to keep them in line.
Can this new Suicide Squad survive-or will it implode before it even begins?
I had so much fun reading this. As a child I always liked the idea of reading comics but never was allowed to have them however as an adult I became obsessed with comic book characters and reading this was everything child me would have wanted. I love Harley Quinn and Slade so this was a perfect comic to get me into the Suicide Squad comics. There was so much action and it was so fast paced and entertaining.. I fully enjoyed the story and the character development. The art was gorgeous and so detailed and interesting. I will definitely be continuing to read this series.
