Kinda random, kinda lacking in backstory, but OMAC? Well, he seems like some sort interesting random b-lister superhero/villain.

Should I know about him? No? Yes?

Well anyway, this was solid in an action and an "I don't know what's going on but I'll fake it" kind of way.

The facility is broken? Harley did it? King Shark has a father?

Well, all of these things might be rather more interesting with an actual good story to back them up, but that apparently is a bit of a stretch for DC at this point in time. :)

I'm almost done with SS, but I keep wondering if all the previous revisions might be superior to the New 52. Even without Harley. Do I care enought to do the read? IDK. That's the god's honest truth.

Will I at least follow this up with the New Suicide Squad? Yeah, I think I will. I've heard some good things about it, so I'm still on board.

Belle Reive has been taken over by the inmates and Waller is trying to take it back because The Thinker who is behind it and he has an evil plan to let them all go and take over the world. The Thinker is working with the Crime Syndicate who has promised him a body to put his great mind in seeing as he has used his mind to such a degree that it has deteriorated his body. Waller hides out in the control room and hopes for help from the Suicide Squad.

Meanwhile, The Thinker has been busy sending Waller's hologram to superheroes around the world calling for their aid and gets Power Girl, Warrant, Steel, and unknown Soldier to go and get OMAC suit. At the same time, he has sent the Suicide Squad consisting of Boomerang, Deadshot, and Harley Quinn to do the same thing, hoping that one group will bring him the suit.

James Gordon Jr. is working on the inside trying to help Waller in any way he can and King Shark is helping The Thinker who has promised him to get back at Waller. Waller, on the other hand, has promised King Shark the identity of his father if he helps her. Harley doublecrosses everyone and decides to do what The Thinker wants as long as its fun and causes mayhem.

The heroes and the villains decided to work together to go up against The Thinker, though the heroes have their doubts about the goodness in Waller. But Waller has made many promises to both sides to get them to help her including letting loose the dangerous Kane who is a god and King Shark's father to go after The Thinker who now has the suit. The only problem is the suit's original designer, Kevin Cho is supposedly still inside alive and well and wants a chance to win the suit back over before Waller destroys it and him with it.

This comic also comes with a story at the beginning of the book about Waller transferring an important scientist whose creation is wanting payback. I really loved this book and its mini background stories on some of the players like unknown Soldier, Steel, Boomerang, and Deadshot. It's the characters that really make this comic work and the addition of the heroes was an interesting touch. Overall this was a great book and I give it five out of five stars. ( )
