Before Frankie Charles was the leader of the Suicide Squad, she was an archaeologist. Take a trip back to 1938, when Frankie and Nadimah and Qadir Ali discover a cavern full of treasure—all untouched by whoever came through before them! If that team didn’t take anything…maybe something was left instead…
With Bombshells moving on to some different material for the moment, what Bennett and Aneke present here is interesting enough but comes across as just a little too padded for my tastes. I don't think it did things well enough in setting up at the start with Frankie, Nadimah, and Qadir to really connect with them and what they're up to and the leaning into the old Indiana Jones stuff was just a little to blunt for my tastes, though amusing. Aneke captures the look of the place and time well as I really liked how she worked all three of these characters, but it was when it shifted to Faora and the different interpretations and the nod to her time in Moscow that it started to click better. This was probably one of the weaker installments overall in terms of getting something underway but it does serve up some very good bits for the larger picture. Read Full Review
