review:
'Justice League vs. Suicide Squad' is a big 312 story with 3 different writers, more artists and spanning a few series. If you can suspend your belief that the Suicide Squad would even have a chance against the Justice League, then it's not so bad.

Task Force X (aka Suicide Squad) has been discovered. Not only that, but Amanda Waller's past mistakes are about to be exposed. At first, the Suicide Squad faces off against the Justice League, but before long, they are teaming up against a threat, and the roles even end up getting reversed.

It's a big cast of characters, and individuals get a bit lost in everything. Sure, Harley Quinn gets to pipe in every now and then, and Batman is ominous, but the rest are just kind of placeholders. Killer Frost has a standout role, and I'd like to see more of this character. The story itself has promise. I like the additional characters that get introduced along the way, some famiiar, some less so to me. Since it spans 11 issues or so, the art style varies along the way. The promise of an all out fight between these two teams is realized a couple different ways, so if that intrigues, then this might be a book for you.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
