Some thoughts about Suicide Squad Most Wanted: Deadshot and Katana #2

Deadshot and Katana will have to deal with their own personal missions.

Kobra is creating terror everywhere and is up to Katana to stop them. Meanwhile, Floyd will be forced to finally face the family he neglected for so long.

Some things worked and some things didn't and by that I mean the Deadshot segment.

The Katana segment written Mike W. Barr is pretty dull to be quite honest. Is trying to reestablish Kobra as one of the most dangerous organizations in the DCU but so far none of its members is particularly interesting. Same goes for Katana whose past is being explored but is not something that we haven't seen before and neither is told in an interesting way. Also, Deadshot appears and here he's strangely portrayed as a responsible and kinda caring leader of the Suicide Squad which everyone who knows a little bit about the character would realize is completely wrong.

Diogenes Neves handles the artwork here and is not one of his best works, at times it looked kinda awkward.

The second segment written by Brian Buccellato focusing on Deadshot works a bit better but is not perfect. In the last chapter I forgot to mention that it seems like Buccellato wanted to reintroduce Floyd's original origin about how he hated his family and was culprit of his brother's death. This obviously clashes with the origin that Matt Kindt created during Villains Month so Buccellato gave the explanation that all of it was an invention. Mind you, I prefer the original origin but I don't think this explanation is quite clear nor executed properly. Finally, I'm not really a fan of how emotional this Floyd is (he cries and everything here) considering he should be a cold psychopath.

Viktor Bogdanovic is in charge of the art and is pretty solid with a clear storytelling skill and decent character models.

Mixed thoughts overall but is good to see the original vision of Deadshot back.
