What Would Be Your Suicide Squad Dream Team?
I’m curious on what you guys imagined the “perfect” Suicide Squad team. For me, my dream team would be:
Harley Quinn
I love Harley! She is one of my favorite DC characters because of her craziness and whimsy.
Deadshot
I’ve started liking Deadshot in Injustice 2 and the two Suicide Squad Animated Films(Assault on Arkham/Hell to Pay). I want to know more about him because his story is interesting.
Enchantress
After seeing her in Injustice 2 and Suicide Squad, I grew really interested her, especially her powers and origin. I didn’t care for her portrayal in the Suicide Squad and want DC to try again.
Killer Frost
Really liked Frost in Assault on Arkham animated film and really want to see more of her.
King Shark
Watching King Shark in the HQ animated series made me fall in love with him. I’m so excited for him to appear in The Suicide Squad and hope he is portrayed well.
Captain Boomerang
This guy is absolutely hilarious in the two SS films. I’m kind of meh with his portrayal in SS (2016), but am excited to see him again.
Rick Flag
I like characters who are morally good, but is stuck in a situation they are against. I don’t know much about Flag and want to learn more.
Katana
She is such a badass and her origins are really cool! I want to learn more about her sword and morals. Katana’s design is also pretty amazing.
Black Manta
Injustice 2 and Young Justice introduced me to this villain and I actually really like him. His abilities are really cool. Like to see more of him.
Bronze Tiger
First saw him in Hell to Pay and he reminded me of a sort of Batman who kills. He is a great fighter and his chemistry with Deadshot in the movie was cool to see. I want to know more about him.
Count Vertigo
I mostly added him to the team because of how interesting his powers and origins. I liked him as a villain in Young Justice.
I know that my list mostly has popular well-known characters, but I’ve always wondered what these characters as a team be like.
The list is long since half or most of them would die in the mission.
What about you guys?

Quick headcanon that at some point, the Justice League makes a time-off calendar for every time a leaguer is busy and needs someone to keep their city safe while they’re gone. Maybe they have a work trip or a family thing or even some vacation they planned.
All a hero has to do is request time off, and another member will sub in while they’re gone. The only problem is that it creates a pattern. It would be suspicious if Green Arrow is only replaced when Oliver Queen is on a business trip, right? So to keep the public on their toes, JL members are encouraged to take a random day off each month or so and switch out with no rhyme or reason. Just any random day, any random hour.
The outcome is complete chaos.
Clark Kent has the pleasure of interviewing Wonder Woman at the scene of a car chase she just stopped in Metropolis.
Some muggers in Star City are scooped up into a giant glowing cage while Green Lantern riddles off bird puns to an exasperated Black Canary.
A team of robbers hit a bank in Central City but get roasted by Plastic Man for their poor their safe-cracking skills as they’re taken into custody.
Black Manta uses his high tech weaponry to wreak havoc in the Atlantic only to be hit with a torpedo as the Bat-Sub dives towards him at full speed.
Cyborg is lecturing a group of teen vandals in Fawcett City when Captain Marvel just waltzes up, says, “I’m tapping back in,” and continues the lecture where he left off.
Complete. And. Utter. Chaos. No one knows who will show up at the scene now, not even the cops, but criminals are scared shitless.
The JL decides to keep the calendar. If only for entertainment.
