It's already clear that the Suicide Squad franchise is in a healthier state thanks to DC Rebirth. The new creative team and re-jiggered, movie-inspired roster immediately make for a more exciting, approachable Suicide Squad. But it won't be until this relaunched series moves past the introductory setup phase that it truly starts to realize its potential, and this issue makes it painfully clear that this won't be happening very quickly.
With the previous Suicide Squad Rebirth one-shot re-introducing readers to Amanda Waller and Rick Flag, Suicide Squad #1 widens the focus to include the entire team - Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Killer Croc, Captain Boomerang, Katana and Enchantress. Unfortunately, the script is a little too preoccupied with again hammering home the purpose of the team and the uneasy alliance between Amanda Waller and Rick Flag to really dig into these characters' personalities or conflicts. There's some amusing interplay as the Squad emmebrs struggle to deal with the side effects of being dropped from space, but that's about it. At a meager 13 pages, it's not as if the main story offers room for much more than the basics anyway.
