comment |
Justice League vs. Suicide Squad is a 2016-2017 Bat Family Crossover published by DC Comics —and the first major event of the DC Rebirth era— written by Joshua Williamson with art by Jason Fabook.For years, the Suicide Squad operated in the shadows under Amanda Waller's tight leash, assembling only when needed. Nobody could ever learn of their existence, and nobody outside the loop ever has.Except Batman, that is. Turns out he's known about Task Force X —the Suicide Squad— for a little while now, but has never had any reason to divulge his intel with the rest of the Justice League.Until now. As you'd probably expect, their first meeting doesn't pan out very peacefully. But when a Greater-Scope Villain threatens both teams equally, they'll have to come together to stop it — or die trying.While the aftermath of this event is sure to be substantial for both sides involved, perhaps the biggest product of Justice League vs. Suicide Squad is the new Justice League of America (Rebirth) series written by Steve Orlando (Midnighter), featuring Batman forming a new iteration of the JLA populated with the likes of Black Canary, Lobo, The Ray, Vixen, Killer Frost, and The Atom.Compare to Marvel's Inhumans vs. X-Men, a similar event series running concurrently to JLvSS. |

Sequel Hook: Lots. Emerald Empress panics when the Eye gets damaged and attempts to escape, ranting about trying to find Saturn Girl. Both Green Lanterns have no idea who Saturn Girl is, but Superman does, though an Editor's Box lets everyone know that story'll continue in Supergirl (Rebirth). The other escaped villains will also show up in other titles. Also, Batman recruits Lobo and Killer Frost for his own private version of the Justice League. And at the end Amanda Waller forces Maxwell Lord to join Task Force XI, setting up Justice League: No Justice. |

I Gave My Word: Lobo agrees to kill Cyclotron after Waller promises him a bigger payout. Cyclotron points out that Waller is most likely lying through her teeth, which Lobo agrees with but still goes through with his attack because he already made a deal to do so. Lobo offers Batman his services free of charge for one job whenever Batman wants. Batman almost immediately hires Lobo to be a member of the Justice League. Lobo tries to back out but agrees when Batman asks if Lobo is a man of his word. |

Maxwell Lord was so dangerous pre-Flashpoint because his control was absolute once it was established. Here it can be thrown off and by Max's own admission his powers are closer to an amped-up Charm Person than actual mind control; he can't make people do something that they absolutely don't want to do. That being said he can tweak even the slightest thought that a person has in order to take control of them. |

Designated Girl Fight: Played with.

The actual fight is exactly that, with Wonder Woman more annoyed with Harley than anything else. |

Wham Episode: Issue 6 serves as one both internally and for the greater universe. The entire event was apparently planned out by Waller in order to keep the Batman and the League from disbanding the Suicide Squad. The villains that Max recruited have escaped and are free to pursue their own agendas, with shots of both Empress and Johnny Sorrow's mask hinting at involvement from the Legion of Superheroes and the Justice Society in the future. The issue ends with Waller revealing that she intends to recruit Max not for Task Force X, but for Task Force XI, meaning the history of the project goes much further than ever realized. |

Red Eyes, Take Warning: When Superman catches sight of Max Lord, his eyes flare up, remembering what his Max Lord did to him in the lead-up to Infinite Crisis. He scares the crap out of Captain Boomerang when the latter feels he isn't that frightening. |

Pyrrhic Victory: The epilogue for the story has Rustam go after Waller, only for him to allow her to kidnap them to "protect" them. When her daughter reveals that she's pregnant, she shuts her out of her life because she shut everyone else out of her life in favor of her work. |

Shout-Out: Twice in issue 4: When Batman recruits Lobo and the Suicide Squad into the Justice League, they're positioned the same way as the popular cover to Justice League (1987) issue 1 When Max Lord crows victory, he shouts "I did it! I DID IT!" while throwing his arms in the air, which is what Ozymandias cries out when he achieves peace. |

Adaptational Wimp |
| | Justice League vs. Suicide Squad (Comic Book) / int_d500b978 |
comment |
Adaptational Wimp: Maxwell Lord was so dangerous pre-Flashpoint because his control was absolute once it was established. Here it can be thrown off and by Max's own admission his powers are closer to an amped-up Charm Person than actual mind control; he can't make people do something that they absolutely don't want to do. That being said he can tweak even the slightest thought that a person has in order to take control of them. Johnny Sorrow's powers are so dangerous because nobody can really withstand them unless they are ungodly powerful. Here, while they are hyped up, his Brown Note Nightmare Face's only successful target is himself, with Harley Quinn being nigh inexplicably immune. |

Continuity Snarl: The premise of the crossover is that the League have just found out about the Suicide Squad and are fighting Waller over the idea of them. The thing is, in the New 52, basically everyone, including many Leaguers, already knew about the Squad. It was easily one of the worst kept secrets in the world. |
