Suicide Squad

DC's black-ops take on super-villainry, this 2011–2014 series reimagined the Suicide Squad for the New 52 era. Tasked with impossible missions in exchange for reduced sentences, Amanda Waller's crew of incarcerated rogues became a volatile mix of expendable assets and explosive collars. Writers Adam Glass, Matt Kindt, and Aleš Kot, alongside artists like Patrick Zircher and Fernando Dagnino, delivered a gritty, action-driven run that balanced dark humor with high-stakes espionage. It stands as a key modern iteration of the team, cementing their place as DC's most dangerous and morally ambiguous operatives.
