This last volume of Ostrander’s Suicide Squad collects issues #59-#66. Between Superman breathing down their necks and a trek through a nightmarish jungle, the stakes are appropriately high for the Squad.
Zack Snyder’s Justice League is a huge improvement. If you dislike the filmmaker, this probably won’t change your mind.
With 18 issues left, the end is just on the horizon. Volume six functions as a bit of a soft reboot, reformatting the Squad into a freelance, mercenary team-for-hire. But everything else I’ve come to love about Suicide Squad remains the same: Concise, tightly-plotted political thrillers with fun character moments.
The Squad’s existence is revealed, Waller takes her power game to the next level, and Oracle gets her first “appearance” in Suicide Squad #23. What else could possibly happen for our band of misfit metahumans?
Patty Jenkins’s Wonder Woman (2017) was a breathe of fresh air for Warner Brothers’s struggling DC Comics film universe. The film took the hype from the character’s introduction in Batman v. Superman (2016), really the best part of that movie, and flawlessly built on it in the standalone film.
For years, Marvel Unlimited boasted nearly the entire Marvel Comics digital library. It only seemed natural that DC would follow suit.
The overall package of Justice League #41 is very “meat and potatoes,” but I can’t help but be left feeling hungry for something else.
Michael and Greg talk about Marvel cancelling two of the upcoming Hulu shows, IDW losing a ton of money, and of course comics.
