New Suicide Squad

[Zack1973]

Picked it up today, and I was quite pleased with the 1st issue. I think DC might have hit a home run with this line up. Will play it out for now and see how it goes.

 

What are your thoughts fellow board members?

[coutstevo]

I pre ordered it so it will be in my next dcbs shipment. I'm hoping for good things and look forward to the new lineup.

 

I enjoyed the last series for the most part, especially the earlier issues, but there were way way too many writer/artist changes toward the end.

[Jimmy Linguini]

I'm just of disappointed that DC would reboot every title as the new 52 and cancel a title only to reboot it down the line.

 

So now we have Volume #2 of a title not even three years after the inception of a universe.

 

I don't like it.

[followtheleader]

This is one of those titles that always sounds good but never is.

I thought it was ok. Short, though, could have done w/out the half dozen Teen Titans (or whatever that was) promos at the end.

[MadGenius]

Nobody can beat the original John Ostrander run of the '80s and '90s. Now THOSE were some great Suicide Squad comics.

Haven't seen it yet. Who is on the new team?

[Heavy_Hog-migration]

Jokers Daughter and Deathstroke.

 

 

 

I thought it was going to be better then it was. I wish they hadn't mixed all the lame office scenes in with the action stuff. At one point one of the characters says something like "Enough talk, lets watch the action"

 

And I thought, That's what I've been saying all along!

 

I will reserve judgement for now but I think it has potential.

Really? Already? Why? Can someont explain why this needed a reboot? I like the previous series fine

Me either, puts a slight chill of foreboding down the spine, hope it's not a sign of things to come

at least is not like Marvel every 6 months with their #1's.

i don't think the previous series was doing fine, it had way to many creative teams change and weak stories plus i think they had plan not to relaunch it but some body had a good enough story that can bring sales and hopefully some Arrow non comic readers fans.

[kimik]

How many Suicide Squad relaunches were done in the past?

that's true

the new series is going to be the 5th volume.

I can see this new Suicide Squad tying in with this fall's season 3 of Arrow. Good to have it in book form.
