The attacks begin without warning. Brutal, sudden…cannibalistic. A metahuman with all the power of Superman but none of his humanity—ruled only by hunger and instinct. To stop this threat, Harley, Peacemaker, Boomerang & King have been assigned to corral, nursemaid, and if necessary execute five deadly new recruits, the expendable products of a secret government procedure called BLAZE: ordinary prisoners, endowed with incredible power with 6 months to live, maximum. If you’re staring down life in prison, maybe that’s a good deal—But that power? It’s surprisingly transferrable. As each member of the Squad dies…the others get stronger. What would a hardened criminal do with that knowledge? One thing’s certain: this time the Suicide Squad’s bitten off more than it can chew.
I thought Get Jokerwas pretty good overall, and it’s too early for me to speculate how this one will go, but I enjoyed the second book more. The story picks up after all the set up in book one, and we get more of the Squad. I wasn’t expecting it to focus on new characters, but it’s growing on me!
As for releases: it depends. Some are arriving on schedule, others show up and then leave, and some have still yet to arrive. I know it’s partially for sales and possibly due to some regular delays on a lot of titles. Thanks for coming by! Don’t be a stranger!
book 1 was okay, book 2 was better. set up can feel like a grind, but I liked the team selection process and the art work, even if I hope we get more time with the core team. I like the main character, he has the weirdest “super power” ever lol and makes me think of TDK.
You are very welcome- Thank you for joining in! Hope you kept going, too! The story expands more and more as we go. Let us know whatcha think when ya get a chance.
I feel like he got the shaft w/ that power, poor guy.
