Suicide Squad #4
This volume collects issues #17-20 of the Rebirth-era Suicide Squad series, as well as the Suicide Squad: Black Files one-shot. The story finds Amanda Waller's Task Force X dealing with the fallout of the 'Drowning Earth' arc, as the team faces threats from both a rogue government agent and a mysterious new villain known as the Earthlings on Fire. Writer Rob Williams continues his run, balancing dark humor with high-stakes action for DC's most dangerous super-villain team.
In "Heroes and Villains," General Zod—under the influence of a Kryptonite brain bomb—joins the Suicide Squad on a mission to Zimbabwe, where they uncover a hidden prison housing captured meta-humans being exploited by a secret organization known as the People. Back at Belle Reve, a shocking betrayal unfolds when Harcourt is revealed as an agent of the People, only to be swiftly eliminated by Waller, who had anticipated the move all along. Written by Rob Williams and illustrated by Tony S. Daniel, with cover art by Daniel and Sandu Florea, this issue deepens the mystery of the People’s network and the true cost of loyalty in a world where no one is who they seem.
In "Heroes and Villains," Amanda Wallen faces off against Lex Luthor in a tense game of wits and deception, using her charm and cunning to keep him occupied while the Suicide Squad moves in to steal a crucial item from his vault. The story unfolds with sharp pacing and layered tension, as alliances shift and every move carries weight.
In "Blowing Up," General Zod—under the mind control of a Kryptonite brain bomb—joins the Suicide Squad on a mission to Zimbabwe, where they uncover a hidden prison housing captured meta-humans being exploited by a secret organization known as the People. As the team unravels the truth behind the People’s twisted experiments, betrayal looms at Belle Reve when Harcourt’s allegiance is exposed, leading to a deadly confrontation that leaves Hack’s killer still unknown.
In "Your Future Is Dead," Zod, once a pawn of Waller's schemes, takes radical action to reclaim his freedom—using heat vision to surgically remove the Kryptonite bomb embedded in his mind. Now unshackled and driven by fury, he turns his sights on the Suicide Squad, setting the stage for a volatile showdown.
In "Alone," Cyborg Superman and the Eradicator arrive with a plan to free Zod, but their ambitions clash when Zod refuses to join—instead, he's determined to unleash every prisoner from the Phantom Zone to build his own army. Caught in the crossfire, the Suicide Squad finds themselves caught between warring Kryptonian forces, each with their own vision of power and vengeance.
