Amanda Waller needs one last item before she can begin her invasion of Earth-3. The problem? It’s locked in a vault on Oa. The solution? SQUAD IN SPACE! Meanwhile, Rick Flag is assembling his OWN Squad to take down Waller!
This beautiful issue is filled with detailed drawings and bold coloring. I found the panels to be eye-catching and enjoyable. The attention given to character expression and form create a deep emotional draw, and the action sequence were flawless. Read Full Review
The interwoven design of SUICIDE SQUAD continues to deliver, however, the premise is certainly beginning to wear thin. Read Full Review
Thompson is building to a major Suicide Squad war while keeping the fun and unpredictable events rolling. Read Full Review
I really thought this series was going to be a slog to review, but if we get more issues like this one, I'll read this forever. Read Full Review
Suicide Squad #9 mixes lots of themes and ideas without feeling stuffy or overly dense. Any level of reader can really take a lot from this title. Do you want a detailed power struggle between multiple layered characters? It's here. Do you want cosmic and gritty battles and classic comic book action? We get it. Do you want a revolving door of figures from DC that you've never heard of, ready to become regular favorites? This title truly has it all, and this quality makes me eager for more. Read Full Review
Suicide Squad has really turned into something special, and you seriously don't want to miss out on all the fun. Read Full Review
It's not a patch on the inventive Tom Taylor run, but it's more intriguing than any of the Squad runs from the years before. Read Full Review
While I continue to love the characters being used and the progression in their relationships with one another, not to mention Amanda Waller's eventual day of reckoning when Rick Flag finally comes to town, the overall going to Oa plot was a bit of a wash for me and makes me wish that our Suicide Squad could do more than show up in other character's stories. That being said though, the art was great and Squad is still solid. Read Full Review
The reveal of the target of Waller's interest turns out to be a complete unknown, leaving the slow build-up without any immediate payoff. We do get plenty of dysfunctional team antics, some fun third-wall breakage by Ambush Bug, and an appearance by Sojourner Mullein, but it will be at least another month before we learn the reasoning behind Waller's big gamble. Waller's prize is creepy (in a Doctor Who kinda way), but what exactly is he? Read Full Review
Suicide Squad #9 is my favorite issue of the series to date. I love everything about it. From the characters to how they interact with each other to the truly bonkers mission they're sent on. Everything in this issue was awesome! I'm really looking forward to how this mission is gonna turn out for the Squad and I'm loving the teases with Flag's rival Squad. Very excited to see that showdown finally happen hopefully soon.
AMBUSH BUG #9 feat. the Suicide Squad!
This book is an absolute joy to read every month. So nice to have a popcorn blockbuster of a comic book that takes you along for the ride through the corners of the DCU. This book proves that you don't need Deadshot, Boomerang, or she who must not be named to sell a suicide squad book!
This is solid, but I wish I enjoyed it more.
2021’s Suicide Squad continues to hold up as a fantastic ongoing series from Robbie Thompson, with each issue getting more whacky and fun the further they go into the weird. Really enjoying this arc.
It's entertaining. The ambush bug is not for me but, overall I like the fun these issues bring.
This continues to be one of the best DC books but Ambush Bug is pretty cringe.
