review:
'Suicide Squad #1' by Rob Williams and Jim Lee seems to be a reboot with characters that look a bit like they do in the current movie. It's an interesting setup, but the whole first issue feels a bit like a set up.
With the discovery of a strange item falling from space, the Suicide Squad is activated. These are bad guys who are completely expendable and have decent fighting skills. They are all equipped with a device to be used in the event they decide to act bad or try to escape. On the current team are Deadshot, Killer Croc, Boomerang, Enchantress and Harley Quinn. Managing them in the field are Rick Flagg and Katana. Things start to go sideways from the beginning when their insertion into a foreign country goes haywire. Can the mission succeed?
There is also a second short story with an origin type story of Deadshot. This felt a little more coherent than the main story, which, as I mentioned, feels a lot like a set up for future things to come. The Jim Lee art was good. The story was just kind of there, but I enjoyed reading it.
I received a review copy of this issue from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this comic book.
