Injustice 2 #1:























"Welcome to the Suicide Squad."

Injustice 2 #2:






























To Harley's horror, "Batman" kills off Waller and the other brass, commandeering the Squad for his own.

Injustice 2, #3:

I really want to know who this new Batman is, and if once again he's Jason Todd. There's a casually, street-level snarky tone to the way he talks: like how Red Hood was when Winick wrote him. 

 

Also because I want to know how he attached those rifles to his back without fucking up the paracape. 

Anyway, good luck to whoever covers #4!

Oh hey. Head-splodey the bad guys. Nothing like gratuitous carnage of D-list supervillains.

In fairness, it's a Suicide Squad tradition

That was one of the things I understand people might take issue with (given how Clock King was Squad during JLU and how Tom King pulled off one of the best Suicide Squad stories using shit villains during Batman's 'I am Suicide'), but I don't mind so much. Maybe except to wish for Gory Discretion Shots only.
