One of my favorite creative teams is getting together for a new series set to launch in December 2019 with Suicide Squad. DC Comics has revealed that the relaunched title will be written by Tom Taylor with Bruno Redondo on the art duties. The pair produced some of my favorite Injustice franchise books over the years and now get to play in the mainstream side together with a group that doesn’t often survive well.
“Bruno and I have been working together for around eight years and he’s one of my favorite artists in the world,” said Taylor. “We speak the same storytelling language and we have the same storytelling values. Getting to create all new characters with Bruno for DC is a bit of a dream.”
The first issue is set for a December 18th, 2019 release priced at $4.99 as it’s a 40-page opener.
Plot Concept: This new version of Task Force X is already full of changes, with new villains—any of whom could die on a mission or be dispatched by an all-new and mysterious leader who has replaced Amanda Waller. This
Squad’s new mission is to neutralize a new group of international super-terrorists known as the Revolutionaries—and not everyone on either side will make it out alive! But when the U.S. government’s most deniable team of antiheroes realizes that the surviving Revolutionaries will be joining the Squad, that’s when the fireworks really begin!
