## History

### Assault on Arkham

An imprisoned Harley Quinn was forced to join Amanda Waller's Task Force X, nicknamed the Suicide Squad. The team was comprised of career criminals serving life sentences who went on suicide missions for the government in exchange for decreased jail time. Harley was joined by Floyd Lawton aka Deadshot, George Harkness aka Captain Boomerang, Louise Lincoln aka Killer Frost, Eric Needham aka Black Spider, and Nanaue aka King Shark. They were also joined by Anatoli Knyazev aka KGBeast, who refused to go along with the operation. Waller allowed him to leave, but the moment he did she blew his head off, killing him. She revealed that all Squad members had bombs implanted in their necks to make sure they followed Waller's orders. She told them that their mission would be breaking into Arkham Asylum to steal the Riddler's cane, which contained information on the Justice League stolen from Batman himself.

The Suicide Squad members were dropped into Gotham City. They traveled to the Iceberg Lounge and met up with Oswald Cobblepot, aka the Penguin, who supplied them with their weapons and housed them for the night. He was angered at Harley's presence, as it was her and her ex-boyfriend Joker who stabbed out his eye. Lawton saved her life. That night, she propositioned him for sex, though her inviting of King Shark to join them ruined the moment.

To enter the Asylum, Lawton stole a police uniform and 'arrested' Harley to bring her inside. The plan went awry when they passed by the Joker's cell. She shot at him and reiterated their beak-up, telling the Clown Prince of Crime that Lawton was her new man. When the assassin attempted to tell a joke, Joker vowed war against the lesser comedian. The villains suited up and made their way for the evidence room. Lawton found the thumb drive on Riddler's cane right before the group was attacked by the 'Batman' (in reality, this was Superman posing as the Dark Knight). Black Spider managed to 'defeat' the hero.

Killer Frost snuck away on a special mission for Waller to kill the Riddler and tie up loose ends. However, he revealed that Waller would never let the criminals go, and offered her team a way out. Reunited with Harley and the rest of the Squad, Riddler revealed that he could disable their bombs and help them escape. Riddler saved most of them, but Waller killed Shark before his bomb could be deactivated. This also blew Batman's cover, who had been masquerading as Black Spider the whole time to recover his stolen data.

Joker, who had escaped his cell, and the Batman battled while the Squad attempted to escape the Asylum. The Clown Prince of Crime came to have his revenge on Lawton, with Harley switching back to his side. Deadshot out-crazied the clown and they escaped, but Batman gave chase. Joker opened all the cell doors and sparked chaos across the island. Frost and Boomerang were taken down, but Lawton escaped on a helicopter. However, Joker and Harley stowed away on his ride with a bomb powerful enough to level the city. Batman defeated Harley Quinn and disabled the bomb while Lawton took down the Joker.

Harley was returned to prison, where she would serve on many more years worth of Squad missions.

### Ticket to Heck

Amanda Waller reunited Quinn, Lawton, Boomerang, and Frost for another Suicide Squad mission. They were being sent to find a male stripper named Charlie Trevor, who was carrying a "special card". They were joined by two new members: Copperhead and Bronze Tiger, a vigilante martial artist who everyone thought was Batman in disguise again. The Suicide Squad traveled to Missouri, using an RV as their method of transportation. Quinn, Lawton, and Frost entered the strip club looking for Trevor, who they recognized from his tramp stamp. However, the stripper had to run when he was attacked by Blockbuster and Silver Banshee, along with their employer Professor Zoom. Quinn and the rest of the Squad managed to escape with Trevor, noticing that Professor Zoom was quite slower than normal. The stripper revealed that he was once Doctor Fate, the host of Nabu. However, he lost his power when Knockout and Scandal Savage seduced him and stole the "Get Out of Heck Free" card from the Tower of Fate. The card was believed to allow someone to ascend to Heaven when they died, and that's what Waller was trying to recover.

The Squad snuck their way into Scandal Savage's penthouse, looking for the card. They managed to retrieve it but were attacked by Scandal's father Vandal Savage as well his men. In the battle, Vandal's soldiers severely wounded Knockout, infuriating Scandal as the two were lovers. The Suicide Squad escaped but had to give up the card. Deadshot received the whereabouts of Vandal Savage from Scandal, who had turned against her father after what he did to Knockout. Professor Zoom kidnapped Killer Frost, having found Trevor and learned of the card's whereabouts. She ultimately joined with the speedster after he disabled her bomb. The Squad broke into the cabin where Professor Zoom was holding Frost, intent on recovering or taking out Waller's asset, but barely escaped an explosion. Bronze Tiger was badly hurt.

At Savage's lair, the rest of the Suicide Squad learned that the Devil himself, also known as Alfred Pennyworth, was responsible for creating the card. It was revealed that Savage kidnapped Professor Pyg to sew the "Get Out of Heck Free" card into his body, protecting his life. They were all attacked by Professor Zoom and his allies. He defeated Savage and had Frost freeze him to recover the card. Professor Zoom revealed that he'd completely forgotten his past as the result of a bullet hole in his skull, though he didn't remember how it happened. Hailing from an alternate timeline, Professor Zoom was able to use the speed force to freeze himself one second before death, but he'd been slipping away. The card was to make sure he avoided eternal damnation for his sins. Killer Frost turned on the speedster, killing Blockbuster and Banshee and betraying the Squad. Waller activated Copperhead's bomb to take out Frost, but the explosion only wounded her and turned her blue. Boomerang tried to escape with the card but was defeated by the speedster. A dying Bronze Tiger and Deadshot were finally able to kill Professor Zoom.
