New Suicide Squad 1: Pure Insanity

Setting the world&;s most dangerous super-criminals against the most insidious threats to national security: that&;s the idea behind the elite black-ops unit officially designated as Task Force X. It&;s perfect&;on paper.

But the real world rarely goes according to plan. Threats evolve. Teammates turn on each other. Blood and betrayals flow like rivers. And that&;s why Task Force X is better known as the Suicide Squad.

Vic Sage aims to change the equation. Replacing Amanda Waller as the puppet-master of Suicide Squad&;s motley crew, he&;s introducing wild cards like Deathstroke and the Joker&;s Daughter to whip the existing team-Deadshot, Harley Quinn, and Black Manta-into shape. But the world&;s deadliest assassin and the Clown Princess of Crime have ideas of their own&;and no explosive implants to keep them in line.

Can this new Suicide Squad survive-or will it implode before it even begins?
