    Buccellato and Bogdanovic carry on, guns a blazing, as they dive deeper into Deadshot's history and personal life. Suicide Squad's Most Wanted: Deadshot lives in a heap of moral ambiguity, and challenges your idea of what's acceptable, or right or wrong. If the team continues to deliver on this level, this will become required reading for Deadshot fans. Read Full Review

    Another month rolls by, and we once again have Deadshot's half carrying Katana's, even though this time she has something interesting to read. While both halves are pretty, Katana's plot is becoming sillier, but now has a cool cast of characters to help fight the war. Deadshot's personal dilemma now has escalated and now is gunning for the one woman who deserves it, and it makes for one fun ride. If you need something to read, read this just for Deadshot's story" and skim the pretty art of Katana's. Read Full Review

    Really, this should be two reviews the quality and tone of the two stories are so different, but as a whole, the comic is an average one between the two. There's the quality of the Deadshot story and the sub-par Katana story. Combined together, it's a mixed bag. Read Full Review

    Whilenot my favorite entry to date, this mini-series is still going strong at its halfway point. And a healthy injection of Harley Quinn never hurts! Read Full Review

    The Deadshot story continues to tell a meaningful and great looking story, but the Katana story feels so run of the mill it brings down the whole shebang. There's nothing overtly bad in this issue, it's just so damn middling. Read Full Review

    This is mainly a score for the Deadshot story, which isn't quite as good as what was delivered last week, but still maintains a decent quality. The problem here is the Katana half. It almost seems cruel to force it into the same book, like a disappointing sibling that you can't help but compare to its better older brother or sister. It doesn't help that the Suicide Squad features in both stories, benefiting from such great characterization by Buccellato in the first half, but then suffering lines like "'Strewth! I don't need t'lose any more juice! Best put these blokes out!" from Boomerang in the second. You can't help but wish 'Katana' was more like its older brother.
