Stories

  • Going Sane Part Four: I Believe in Miracles · 13 pages

    Harley needs to find a way to defeat General Zod and free the rest of the Squad from the influence of a murderous rage. She is aided by the sudden appearance of the previously deceased Captain Boomerang who has been restored to life by Hack from a digital copy of Digger that was stored in her brain.

  • Justice League vs. Suicide Squad Prelude: Warm Heart · 8 pages

    Killer Frost is transferred to Belle Reve to join the Suicide Squad. Her origin is recapped and Colonel Flag introduces her to the rest of the team.

Publisher’s description

Harley Quinn goes sane! The prisoners and staff of Belle Reve Penitentiary have succumbed to the devastating effects of General Zod’s Black Vault, rendering them all insane. But it has the opposite effect on Harley, who must fight her way through a crazed Suicide Squad—with the help of the Enchantress—to stop Zod from waking and conquering the world. No pressure, right? And in a bonus backup story, learn how super-villains are conscripted into the Suicide Squad! The unlucky Killer Frost is about to find out when she arrives for her first day at Belle Reve. Her story continues from this month’s single issue of SUICIDE SQUAD directly into JUSTICE LEAGUE VS. SUICIDE SQUAD #1!
