Suicide Squad #2
This volume collects issues #7-12 of the 2022 Suicide Squad series, continuing the team's high-stakes missions under Amanda Waller's direction. The story arc 'Ambushed!' sees the squad navigating a deadly conspiracy involving a new threat that targets them directly, with writer Robbie Thompson and artist Eduardo Pansica delivering action-packed espionage and dark humor.
In "Game, Set, Match," the Suicide Squad is split in two: while Peacemaker’s team clashes with Swamp Thing in a surreal, high-stakes confrontation, the rest of the team finds themselves trapped in Hell, facing off against the Hell Squad—dead former members of the team with personal vendettas against Waller. As chaos unfolds across dimensions, Waller dispatches Ambush Bug on a dangerous mission to retrieve a crucial package, all while Rick Flag quietly assembles a new squad with plans to turn on their former commander. Written by Robbie Thompson and illustrated by Eduardo Pansica, with inks by Júlio Ferreira and Dexter Soy, and colors by Marcelo Maiolo, this issue’s cover by Pansica and Ferreira captures the escalating tension with striking, hellish detail.
In "Game, Set, Match," Superboy finds himself locked in a tense showdown with a version of himself—his own past, his own choices—forcing a reckoning with the truth behind Waller’s control. As the Suicide Squad scrambles to survive the fallout, Rick Flag begins plotting his next move, and the island’s secrets start to unravel.
In "Hellbound," Ambush Bug finds himself reluctantly part of the Suicide Squad as Amanda Waller tests their mettle with a high-stakes simulation: infiltrating Hell to reach the Rock of Eternity. As Match and Nocturna grapple with Waller’s manipulative tactics, Peacemaker presses on with his singular goal—capturing Swamp Thing—amid the chaos.
In "Hell & Back," the Suicide Squad finds themselves scattered—Peacemaker's team locked in a brutal fight with Swamp Thing while the others are thrust into Hell, where they face the Hell Squad: fallen former operatives seeking revenge on Waller. As chaos unfolds across the infernal landscape, Ambush Bug is sent on a desperate mission to retrieve a crucial package, all while Rick Flag secretly assembles a new squad to take down Waller once and for all.
In "The Final Frontier," Waller dispatches the Suicide Squad to the alien world of Oa in a high-stakes mission to seize a crucial piece of her larger scheme. There, they confront the enigmatic Jo Mullein and a mysterious alien octopus, while back on Earth, Flag continues to build his own rebel squad to challenge Waller’s control.
In "Spaced," the Suicide Squad’s mission to Oa takes a sharp turn when a Thanagarian attack destroys their ship, leaving them captured and imprisoned by Jo Mullein. Trapped on the alien world, they must find a way to break free and recover the Oan prisoner Waller sent them to retrieve—before it’s too late.
In "One Last Job," the Suicide Squad is sent to Earth-8 to confront the Retaliators, where Peacemaker makes a bold move to pull Bloodsport into his own rogue operation. As tensions rise and loyalties shift, Flag prepares his team for a strike against Waller—just as the mission's true stakes begin to unfold.
In "The Beginning of the End," the Suicide Squad fights for survival against the ruthless Lightning Strikes on Earth-8, while Waller watches from the shadows, calculating her next move as Flag’s team—Bloodsport and Peacemaker—close in on her. The stakes rise as loyalties blur and the line between mission and survival begins to crack.
In "The War for Earth-3 Part 2," Flag and his Suicide Squad squad push deep into the twisted world of Earth-3 to stop Amanda Waller’s escalating scheme—only to be torn apart in a brutal clash with the Crime Syndicate, now under Waller’s command. Now scattered and wounded, the team must regroup and decide how to move forward, with the fate of the multiverse hanging in the balance.
In "Defunded Part 1," the Suicide Squad returns to Earth-0 to find their operation dismantled and their funding gone—leaving Flag to lead a fragmented team in a desperate bid to reclaim what’s been lost. With Waller missing and the government turning its back, small squads are sent out on high-stakes missions to recover vital assets before the window closes.
In "Defunded Part 2," Flag leads the Suicide Squad on a high-stakes mission to kidnap Lex Luthor in a desperate bid to secure funding, but the billionaire’s cunning quickly shifts the balance of power. With tension rising and plans unraveling, the team finds themselves outmaneuvered in a game far more dangerous than they anticipated.
