Suicide Squad

    (DC, 1987-1992, 2010)
™ and ©1987 DC Comics, Inc.

In this action-filled series, the heroes are willing to die in their fight against evil—and sometimes do. Among the heroes who have fought with and for the Suicide Squad are a new Atom, a much maligned hero who can become small enough to travel along telephone transmissions; Captain Boomerang; and resurrected war hero Major Victory.
