    Default King Shark meeting the Suicide Squad in Atlantis Rising

    There was no recognizing or mentioning that King Shark was a member of the Suicide Squad at the start of the New 52 when they ran into each other in Atlantis. Is that a bit of retcon that Rebirth removed?

    I feel like we've seen 2-3 different versions of King Shark running around the DCU since the New 52.

    It's hard to keep straight exactly what he is at this point .

    Right? It's pretty ridiculous at this point and the minute I see this character I just ignore him.

    There was kind of a reference when King Shark reacts to Waller's involvement in all of this but aside from that, I feel like his inclusion in the crossover was a wasted opportunity.

    And is a shame because I've always felt that he fitted much better in the Suicide Squad than, let's say, Killer Croc.

    BZZZ! WRONG!

    King Shark is clearly shown muttering "Waller" to himself when he learns of the Squad's involvement. Look at 5:05.

    That's a mistake. He's great in "Aquaman."

    I suppose I was more referring to the fact no one from the Squad acknowledges KS being a former Squad member.

    I see.

    I'm sorry for being such a jerk in my previous post.
