    I'd say his story was bad because Taylor totally mischaracterized him and wrote him like an idiot.

    Deadeye offers a different dynamic than Deadshot, and that in and of itself is long overdue.

    I do find it funny that Deadshot is the only comic book character to kill his synergy replacement though, lol.
    I think the problem for me is that the way they put him into limbo was frankly disrespectful to the character.

    Riccardo Federici clearly assumed Deadeye was Floyd because of the obvious similarities

    ^^^Okay yeah that’s pretty funny.

    I agree, Taylor's Suicide Squad was impressively bad, but Floyd will pull through

    Hopefully when Floyd comes back they ditch that eye scope thing, which is an annoying tendency with live-action as not only did Will Smith have it but so did Arrow Deadshot because neither wanted their actors in the full face masks.

    Lets hope the next live action portrayal of Deadshot is closer to his original character.

    Utterly nonchalant. Utterly ruthless.

    What I wouldn't give to have Gage write another mini.

    Also, getting back to this mini, what leverage does Waller have over Dreamer, anyways?

    I've not followed the character, but I do know that she's Superman affiliated. Why is Waller treating her as another criminal?

    The leverage is that Waller knows about Parthas, and is threatening to expose it, which would put all of the aliens living there at risk. And Waller wants her on the team because she is a precog, and knowing the future is an asset. And this Waller doesn't care if you are a hero or a villain, because this Waller is terribly written.

    On the issue, at least Dreamer came to the realization in the first issue that Waller is going to screw her over in the end regardless of what she does, instead of dragging it out.

    Best character on the team, Clock King Supremacy!

    I can't believe they're writing Amanda Waller as someone who would rather blackmail pedophiles than erase them from existence.

    Also, Dreamer getting advice on how to be a hero form...Harley Quinn?

    Well she has to be useful for something.

    Because contrary the rest of the team, she's the less useful of the team.

    Seriously.

    When Boomerbutt was on the team, the writer made a point to demonstrate that despite his poor attitude, he was actually effective in a fight.

    Harley, not so much...

    Oh i don't say your wrong.

    Honestly i dislike to see Harley on the SS, when you can have other characters much interesting in the team.

    I can say why Waller choose all the members for this iteration, bu for Harley not so much. (A part to habe better sell for the mini-serie)

    Incredible, isn't? But of course, there should be an selling point on the squad and suppously that would be Harley. I just wonder is she sitll is a selling point.

    I think it would take a lot more of time before Floyd returns. At least until Gunn's new movieverse is stablished.
