Led by the mysterious figure known only as The King, a ragtag team consisting of Green Arrow, Lois Lane, Talia al Ghul, Steve Trevor, The Question, Manhunter, and Director Bones seek to reestablish Checkmate and take down Leviathan.
This is the first time the Squad has gone public, so I was pretty excited to see where this crossover would go. Unfortunately, The Janus Directive ends up being largely inconsequential. It’s not all bad though as we got our first look at Peacemaker, who looks primed for typical James Gunn shenanigans (Have you watched Super (2010) yet?) and witnessed some fun superhero action. But I am ready for a return to regular Squad books and next issue promises another personal files story. This one should be good.
