Pretty rad! I love how far this goes to show you how messed up the concept of the suicide squad is, and how intense Waller can be! I’m not a massive fan of the suicide squad in general, but this definitely wasn’t bad!
This one was just so messed up, I couldn't not like it. Not even mad that there was a character named yo-yo or shark man.
As I’ve said a few times before I’m new to reading graphic novels and comics, so some of these characters I’m coming in with little to no knowledge of their pasts. I enjoyed this a lot. It’s about supervillans so its dark gritty and gory. you get a touch of their pasts and their individual personalities. I was kind of shocked how they seemed to throw away a couple super villains but bad guys are bad guys so back stabbing was going to happen. I think the storyline was wonderful and intriguing. Ha...
Wow, One Crazy Mess After another one. I love Harley's Character. But kind of disappointed to. I need the second vol, now.
Out story begins with torture. Isn't that nice? We get to see a glimpse into the team members' past (how they got arrested and recruited). It's just a tinny bit, so I can't wait for more details. I already love Harley's look (without the red and black suit).
It was so so. Loved for it to have been better .
The start of Suicide Squad where our team is captured and is being tortured for information. All the members think how they ended up there. And we finally get our Suicide Squad.I have always loved comics, and I hope that I will always love them. Even though I grew up reading local Indian comics like Raj Comics or Diamond Comics or even Manoj Comics, now's the time to catch up on the international and classic comics and Graphic novels. I am on my quest to read as many comics as I can. I Love comi...
Though I enjoyed the Suicide Squad movie well enough, we all know it had many flaws. I'm not sure if I waited to start this series because of that, or because I already just really love the Amanda Conner Harley Quinn series and am sucked into that storyline more. Either way, I'm glad this first issue was included in this year's Free Comic Book Day so I had more drive to read it. The in media res beginning was really good, and then getting into the individual backstories later was beneficial. Unl...
I CANT GET OVER HOW GREAT THIS IS!! I love everything about it, especially Harley Quinn! New 52 is holding up to its promises to be much better. Lol
I don't know a lot about Suicide Squad. My buddy let me check out a Blu-Ray of them and then thought I might like to read Kicked in the Teeth. I will admit, the premise is cool. Some of the biggest and the baddest hooligans in the land are assembled to do top secret missions that regular heroes can't or wouldn't do. Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark, El Diablo. There are others as well. They have plenty of work to do as assigned by their handler Amanda Waller. It's only a matter of time before
This was part of an attempt to reach every #1 issue of DC’s New 52 Relaunch.This was kind of quick and breezy. Well, breezy in a super dark and grim and gritty way. But this might be a fun team book to keep coming back to. Most people know who the Suicide Squad is these days. They have a lot of history. Basically, in recent incarnations; they are supervillains who have the opportunity to have years wiped off their sentence by doing jobs for Argus, usually commanded by Amanda Waller. At the begin...
Find out how curiosity killed the cat, or in this case, how exactly Dr. Harleen Quinzel became Joker's alley.
I am definitely giving this a strong 4 stars. I'm going to try and leave spoilers out of this.For the new year I wanted to bust away from my marvel bias and how better to do that than with a villainous story arc. Adam Glass did an awesome job with keeping you hooked from issue to issue. By the end of the issue I could practically smell when the plot twist was going to hit (not that I knew what it would be, just that it was coming). And yes, smell. My senses became that in tune to Glass' writing
I'm not normally a villian loving person, but I want to know what happens.
Received in a Comixology bundle that came with my advanced ticket for Suicide Squad Impressive beginning! More recognizable Suicide Squad characters are introduced. I really like King Shark being a member here, because he did some brutal things in this one (and sharks are just really cool). I'll definitely be continuing this series. Bundle included: Suicide Squad (1987 - 1992) #1Suicide Squad (2011 - 2014) #1Harley Quinn (2013 - ) #1
Not very interesting issue. Nothing really happens. Six people bound. Tortured. Some slight flashback going on for most of the characters bound. Some vague revealing of why they are where they are. Quite boring.
I wouldn't say that this was the deepest comic that I read. There is no rest in this book and the Squad just goes from bad scenario to bad scenario.
I liked this. Not read a DC graphic novel in a while so was a nice change.
Maniacal fun. Glass is a strong writer with really good balance of the slap-happy pacing and dramatic noir balance. Because of all the character arcs and suits running the show, Suicide Squad reads more like your heist-type / police drama sitcom than an actual "comic book" if that makes sense. The story still runs dry tactics of retelling certain storylines and retconning old faves like Harley and Deadshot, but it's forgivable when you realize how fun their antics are. Like those of the Scooby D...
great art and a good violent storyline. This is the Suicide Squad as it should be. My ONLY complaint.. WTF does Amanda Waller look like Halle Berry? What was wrong with the good old fashioned Waller who was an AWESOME character and showed you could be smart, tough, ruthless and control psycho convicts? Now she looks like the typical "I'm soooooooo hot but I'm also a badass" female trope that is all too prevalent in comics. Bad move Mr Glass but I forgive you because the rest of the Suicide Squad...
