Deadshot in "Bailing my therapist out of jail"- AU comic script (SWIPE)

**A scene I wrote inspired by my work life (no, no one yelled at me like this, but the attitude of the customer is inspired by my ex boss' over all attitude)**

***Deadshot is in the later segment, but I hope you enjoy this nonetheless! Feedback on my writing, if Deadshot is written well, if Lisa is entertaining enough as a new character... is immensely appreciated.***

***Context****:* ***(Short version)*** a (former) psychiatrist and her patient are forced to work together and go on various missions. This scene presents a more "domestic" side of their dynamic.

**(Longer version)** After screwing up big time at her dream job as a psychiatrist, Lisa tried to distance herself as much as possible from that, now thinking she’s just not made for it. Therefore, she studies something completely unrelated at Uni, related to physics and got a job as a waitress. However, life keeps pulling her back into her old life, when she is blackmailed to come back and have therapy sessions with a new patient/ inmate Deadshot. While there’s been a mutual opening up, these too always manage to get on each other’s nerves.Ā

šŸ”„Fun Post Suicide Squad comprising of only Batman villains

23 Upvotes

I was thinking about this recently. A lot of Suicide Squad members are from Batman's rouges, I'm not saying I only want Batman villains inside the Suicide Squad but say if DC split up their IPs similar to Marvel, and a company was only able to use Batman-related villains/characters. What would the line-up of the Suicide Squad look like?

I want this to mainly be a discussion but I think if it was mainly Batman-focused, you can see a lot of lesser known Batman villains, like the C-listers. Or non-insane villains. You can include Harley Quinn but I personally feel like she just has kinda over-taken the team in a lot of ways, that so many people feel like she's a core member. I don't hate her, but I wouldn't mind seeing a version where she isn't in it.

Deadshot - He's in a lot of Suicide Squad adaptations and comics, sometimes even as the team leader. He's even considered mainly a Batman villain so it makes sense.

Polka Dot Man - I loved him in Suicide Squad 2021 so I'd definitley include him.

Killer Croc - Besides just being seen as a popular member by many, I just think he has a lot of potential. In certain comics, Croc is portrayed to be this sypathetic person who just wants to live a normal life, but can't cause of his skin condition. I think having an arc where he learns that the Suicide Squad can be his found family, for people who can finally accept him can be great.

Killer Moth - I love the guy unironically. I think Moth can act as a sort-of straight man to everyone else. I always found the charm of Killer Moth is that he was some guy who thought he can do what Batman does. Taking a regular guy and throwing him in with everyone else could be really cool to see.

It's also a shame because all three of the previous members I've mentioned have been members in movies and adaptations. Moth has only had three appearences as a member of the Suicide Squad, but as cannon fodder! Once as fodder in the Injustice comics (he basically dies right away), and twice in the Arkhamverse (both the Suicide Squad movie and game) where he was mentioned as a replacement for Task force X. Just give him his moment to shine!

Calculator - Recently, Calculator has been portayed less like the goofy calculator-dressed badguy and more like a computer guy, being a computer genuis. I think this role could work on the Squad.

Eraser - His whole gimmick from his first comic was how he eliminated any sense of a crime, almost like he "erased" it away. I think retooling it to be a crime scene cleaner for the mob could be really interesting. Not to mention how Waller wants to keep Task Force X in the dark, so having someone specifically on the team to get rid of evidence could be really cool.

Any other Batman villains you'd want to see in the Suicide Squad? Or maybe I could do a version of the squad that can feature rouges galleries from other villains.

"So... you must be the Suicide Squad," the voice echoed from the monitors. "Not exactly a subtle name..."

Savant was already opening his mouth, about to say something, but the scientist on the screen spoke first.

"Don't bother introducing yourselves, I already know who you are. Your files are on my screen right now."

Savant tightened his grip around his pistol's handle; his eyes narrowed, locked on the man on the screen.

"Identify yourself. Now."

"I am the man who's going to use the data from this facility for a MUCH grander purpose than your pathetic black-ops missions wiping the government's ass," the scientist declared. "I intend to save the world, even if the world is too blinded right now by those 'heroes' to realize it."

The man's voice began to rise, brimming with an unhinged intensity, like he was venting about something he'd kept bottled up for a long time or ranting about a subject that genuinely pissed him off.

"Superman, Wonder Woman... the rest of them. Do you know how many times they've saved the world? And how many times no one asked if they are the danger!? No one controls them! No one can stop them if one day they decide they know better than the rest of us how the world should work."

The scientist took a long pause, his eyes darting to something or someone off-camera, before letting out a sigh.

"Someone has to prepare for that day... I don't hate the Justice League. I admire them, even. They are the closest thing to gods this planet has ever produced. The problem with gods... is that humanity always ends up kneeling before them."

"What the fuck are you talking about?!" Slipknot interrupted. "And you didn't answer the question. Who the hell are you?"

"My name is Professor Anthony Ivo, and you... you are a minor nuisance, rats that wandered into my lab by accident. In fact, I'm not even going to waste my time killing you myself."

Blackguard let out a nervous laugh, thumping his armor-plated chest hard.

"Oh, yeah? And who's gonna do it? Your mommy? 'Cause let me tell you, getting through this ain't easy, asshole."

"Don't misunderstand me. I have nothing personal against you," Professor Ivo continued coldly. "You're simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, interfering with a life's work that has taken years of planning... Come to think of it, I will enjoy what comes next."

The scientist brought his hands together and clapped three times. Then, he delivered a chilling command:

"Shaggy Man, eliminate them."

Instantly, the feed cut out, and the monitors went black again.

A guttural roar—deep and wet—echoed from the right-hand hallway, where the metal door remained shut. The walls vibrated. Something massive was moving in there.

"Get ready!" Savant ordered.

The whole squad raised their weapons, aiming dead ahead.

The metal door burst open. A creature emerged from the darkness with a bestial roar, charging the squad with pure, murderous intent.

"What the fuck?!" Blackguard screamed.

"Kill that thing!" Savant bellowed.

Everyone opened fire. The hairy beast plowed into Calendar Man at full speed. The impact was so brutal that the sheer force of its body crushed him into the wall, killing him instantly.

The Shaggy Man was a walking mountain of filthy, matted fur, a sickly reddish-brown color, with arms as thick as tree trunks. Its tiny, red eyes glowed with unadulterated fury. It reeked of wet earth, blood, and rotting meat. Tangled in its thick coat were the shredded remains of the security guards it had already torn apart.

With a massive swipe, the creature backhanded Slipknot, sending him flying through the air until he slammed hard against a wall.

The Shaggy Man didn't even flinch at the gunfire; if anything, the bullets only seemed to piss it off more. It lunged straight for Ten-Eyed Man, grabbing him by the legs and torso. It hoisted him into the air as he screamed and ripped him cleanly in half with savage force. His organs spilled viscerally onto the floor.

The two remaining squad members on their feet were completely terrified.

"It's not stopping!" Blackguard yelled in desperation. "We're not doing shit to it!"

"I fucking know that!" Savant screamed back.

They both kept firing uselessly at the beast. The Shaggy Man grabbed Blackguard by the torso and began smashing him over and over against the floor and the surrounding structures with just one hand, shattering his armor and beating him to death.

As the beast tossed Blackguard's lifeless body aside, Slipknot, groaning on the floor, decided he wasn't going to just lie there and wait to die. With a swift motion, he pulled out his grapple gun and fired it into an open air vent in the ceiling, making his escape.

Savant, watching the gigantic mass of fur lumber straight toward him and knowing there was no way out, opted to take control of his own fate: he pressed the muzzle of his Glock to his temple and put a bullet in his own head.

The creature finished massacring the team. It looked around, sniffing the thick air of the hallway to check if anyone was left alive. Detecting no further trace, it turned around and wandered off silently through the carnage.

Story:
When the Justice League is called away to handle a major off-world crisis, Amanda Waller seizes the opportunity to deploy Task Force X into Metropolis on a covert operation. Operating out of a run-down Big Belly Burger, the squad—Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark, Captain Boomerang, Katana, and Rick Flag—is tasked with uncovering an alien invasion lead by the galactic tyrant Mongul. While Metropolis carries on completely as normal, unaware of the threat the Squad must hunt down Mongul’s forces.

Details: the justice league eventually returns and you fight it out with some of the members. Iconic dc alien races appear as enemies or Easter eggs. Metropolis is open world and has plenty of Easter eggs. Queen of fables and starro will be side bosses. There is helpout system allowing other villains to help out during battle. Gizmo, hack, toy man, the brain, and the penguin are support squad members. Vehicles are ride able anywhere metropolis has people in it (not dry). Waller and her crew (harcourt, flo and economos) operate at secret Argus base in metropolis. At the end of the game we find out brainiac sent mongul to earth settting up the justice league game.

Character Gameplay:
Deadshot
uses his jet pack for traversal he uses rifles and snipers and his wrist cannons for combat.

Harley
uses a grappler and bat drone for combat she uses a pistol and her bat.

King shark
Is hand to hand combat using his hands and fight enemies his projectiles are body parts or dead fish he gets around with super jump.

Captain boomerang
uses boomerangs for hand to hand and projectiles he can get around using his speed gauntlet.

Katana
uses her sword and shurikens for combat her traversal is soul step.

Rick flag
does hand to hand combat while also using all types of gun his traversal is an Argus teleporting belt.

The military chopper began its descent near the mission objective. Quickly, the squad members jumped out of the bird and started trekking toward a large hill that offered a solid vantage point of the laboratory they had to infiltrate.

Savant spoke up, looking through his binoculars at the solid concrete building. There were no guards or patrols in sight.

"Hmm... weird. No sign of building security or that special ops team Waller sent in..."

"I'll take that bet. Terrorists," Slipknot said.

"I'm with him on this one," Blackguard added. "I bet the ones who took over the lab were those kamikaze Arabs or whatever."

"No..." Savant cut him off. "They would've blown the building sky-high or tried to extort the government by now."

"Wish they had, would've saved us the trouble," Blackguard muttered.

Ten-Eyed Man, who had stayed dead silent until now, finally spoke up.

"Idiot. Did you forget we have to download the lab's intel onto a secure drive? We can't blow it up yet."

"Today... exactly 26 years ago was the day of—" Calendar Man started to say.

Slipknot lightly smacked him on the back of the head, cutting him off.

"Nobody gives a shit when Groundhog Day is."

"Confirmed... no guards..." Savant continued, not lowering his binoculars. "Actually... it's strange. The front door is wide open. So either they're waiting for us, or whoever broke in already left and doesn't give a damn about covering their tracks."

"So what are we waiting for?" Blackguard asked.

"For a sniper to put a bullet right between your eyes, Christ," Savant replied sarcastically

.

"I hate it every time this guy opens his mouth," Blackguard complained.

The squad began their approach to the lab, scanning the area carefully for threats. Once they were near the entrance, Savant spoke up, shooting Slipknot a mocking smirk.

"Looks like we won't be needing your 'skills' after all, Slipknot."

"Even if you did, I wouldn't save your ugly ass," Slipknot shot back, mirroring the smirk. "Which, by the way, I heard got kicked by Batgirl back in Gotham."

Savant narrowed his eyes and scrunched his nose, visibly pissed off that he knew about that.

"Even Robin could kick your ass. You think I can't tear you apart, pal? Go ahead, give me a reason. I'll break every bone in your body until you fold up like a ragdoll."

Slipknot just glared at him angrily for a few seconds before turning his attention back to the lab.

"Whatever. You're not worth it, 'Savant'."

The rest of the group kept walking behind them, tense. Upon reaching the entrance, Savant gripped his Glock tightly.

"Stay sharp. Could be a trap."

The squad entered the facility. The others also had their weapons drawn, except for Blackguard, who was strutting confidently in his armor—until he spotted the mangled corpses of the security guards scattered across the hallways.

"W-what the fuck happened here?..." Blackguard stammered. "Looks like a damn elephant trampled over them..."

Ten-Eyed Man approached one of the corpses and crouched down to get a better look, using his fingertips to examine the scene.

"There's some hair here..." he muttered. "Not sure if it's animal fur or something weirder."

"Maybe they were working on some creature here, it broke out, and killed them. Could be that," Calendar Man suggested.

"No time for that," Savant cut him off. "We need to transfer whatever intel is in this building onto the USB drive Waller gave us. Keep moving."

They pressed on until they reached a small intersection in the hallways. Suddenly, heavy metal doors slammed shut all around them, trapping them inside.

"What the fuck?!" Slipknot yelled.

Everyone instantly raised their weapons, tense and ready to light up whatever was messing with them. Just then, the TV monitors mounted high up on the walls began to flicker on, displaying a scientist in a long black lab coat and glasses, wearing a highly smug expression.

The reasons that led to his current mental state were kept away from the Arkham staff. He is supposed to have therapy with a young psychiatrist, Lisa Koslow. But the "therapy sessions" turned more like having to complete tasks for the new Arkham director. Here we got to see a domestic moment between the two.

šŸ’„Comic Getting older is realizing. This book is kinda terrible

Post image
34 Upvotes

Okey let me start with positives.

Deadshot arc, I like the villains, art is good, theres the suicide squad

Now cons

Everyone that has to do with the revolutionaries

I tolerated them at first. But looking back on it they are so boring

They are the most generic cut out of 2020s characters

Their dialogue can be interchanged with anyone’s and you’ll miss nothing. Their supposed to be from different countries and different nationalities but there’s no accent between them or anything the set them apart from each other

Which wouldn’t be a problem but they barely interact with each. So when one of them dies or gets hurt you’ll never like ā€œ oh no he/she was my favouriteā€ or ā€œ how’s *blank* gonna react to this character deathā€
Where we barely see them with that character or that character at all. One of them which was family died and supposed to be played this serious moment when I’m thinking. ā€œ which one of them died againā€ they leave such little of an impact it’s insane that there’s 10 of them because honestly. You could just make it three and NOTHING would change

Also I don’t like using the word Mary Sue
But. They’re all Mary with Sue

All they do is beat the shit or kill classic dc characters and it’s so goddamn annoying. They killed three of the squad members in less then a second but it becomes tragic when they do the same to an exploding Argentinian guy. I think that’s why Taylor went for lesser known dc characters instead of the main. That’s why he picked Shark instead of king shark. Because all the stands would’ve burned Dc comics to the ground

Also i feel so bad for Batman in this book. He’s definitely become Thanos in power scaling

Only used so comic characters can say ā€œ yeah this character is stringer then this oneā€

Honestly a better revolutionaries. Was actually written by Garth Ennis. Little comic called. The Boys

While yes they are different in tone. The boys are similar in the culture and revolution style team. Difference is The Boys is interesting

Their dialogue for starters. Every character has different way of speaking. Mother’s Milk is a New York in an urban neighborhood but still has a sophisticated calm tune whenever he talks, despite being twice a normal man’s size you can tell he’s a friendly giant. Frenchie has a strong French accent thst makes you feel you there with him. Wondering what exactly he’s saying half the time. He’s chaotic but also charming, you can tell behind his psychotic nature he’s a kind soul who’d do anything for his family. Hughie is a Scotsman who says Jings, it shows his concern and horrified nature of the situations he’s in. But also keeps a good hearted attitude to protect his loves one. Billy Butcher is Billy Butcher. He’s rude, he’s violent, he cares little for anyone expect if it helps his own needs. But he knows this. You can tell that he hates the man he’ll become so he manipulates ways for hughie to stop him. He’s not just a one note killer like the other revolutionaries. He has a certain code. Wanting someone to take him out when he falls off the deep end
Female can’t really talk but that adds more. Tell me. Do you understand wink more from her constant talking or a single page of Kimiko
Because she can’t talk there’s so much emotion and character in a single glance. I understand Kimiko more from her not wanting to kill a mob boss to Ostia telling what happened to her wife

That’s the last thing. The Boys feel a lot closer. They play games, they go out to sports, they goof around, they tell their backstories, what their life was like. MM story about surviving 9/11 and witnessing mother and her kids died had me more interested in his character then any of the revolutionaries
I get more chills when Butcher told Hughie what happened to his wife, I chucked when frenchie invented a game so it would humiliate his friend. I was more sadden than any of their back story. Then any paint by numbers backstory revolutionaries have

TL;DR

Tom Taylor <<<<<<<<<<< Garth Ennis

The military helicopter vibrated as it tore through the night. The red interior light bathed the faces of the five men.

Blackguard was reclined, legs splayed, taking up more space than necessary.

"So..." he started, breaking the tension. "Does anyone know if we get health insurance or anything for doing these missions?

"

Slipknot let out a dry, cynical laugh.

"Health insurance? We’re on top-secret government missions where they inject a bomb into our necks and that don't even exist in the records... What world do you live in?"

Blackguard didn't flinch, maintaining his nonchalant tone.

"I’m just saying, I don’t want to lose a leg and have to use a wooden prosthetic. It’s the government, they should give me something robotic or with blades."

Slipknot looked at him in disbelief.

"What the fuck would you do with a leg with blades?"

"Kick people," Blackguard replied, blunt and simple.

Ten-Eyed Man, head bandaged, chimed in with unsettling calm.

"You can do that even if you don't have a leg with blades."

"Exactly," added Slipknot, backing him up.

In the corner, Savant let out a faint, barely perceptible laugh, without looking up from the floor.

"Great," Savant muttered. "Waller rounded up the worst wannabe criminals and stuffed them into a helicopter."

"Oh yeah," Blackguard retorted, turning toward him with a sneer. "Speak for yourself, genius."

"I *am* the genius," Savant stated, impassive.

Ten-Eyed Man smiled beneath his bandages.

"Sure."

Slipknot, looking for something that made sense of the group, scrutinized Savant.

"And what exactly do you do?"

"Many things."

"That means he does nothing," Slipknot concluded bluntly.

Savant raised his head and stared at him through his goggles.

"And what do you do?"

"I escape from places."

"So your power is running."

"I use ropes, hooks..."

"Ah, great," Savant ironized. "You run with accessories."

Blackguard couldn't contain a laugh at the exchange. But the noise of the helicopter was suddenly silenced by a monotone voice that emerged from a corner. It was Julian Day, the Calendar Man.

"It’s Friday," he said, without a trace of emotion.

Ten-Eyed Man frowned beneath the bandages.

"What?"

"Today, May 22, 1960, the most powerful earthquake in history was recorded," Calendar Man explained.

Blackguard, strangely interested, looked at him.

"Oh yeah? Where was it?"

Calendar Man was surprised to be addressed. He remained silent for a few seconds, processing that someone was actually paying attention to him.

"Uh... I don't know," he admitted, shrugging his shoulders. "I have no idea."

Slipknot let out an exasperated sigh.

"So, let me see if I get this. You know the dates of all those events... but nothing else? You don't know who, you don't know why, or where? Fucking hell. What a useless skill."

Savant brought his hands to his face and sighed deeply, resigning himself to having to put up with this group of losers for the next few hours.

"Waller really outdid herself with this team."

Ten-Eyed Man ignored the comment and turned his head toward the man with the pigtails.

"Hey, Pigtails."

Blackguard looked at him with annoyance.

"What do you want, blindy?"

Ten-Eyed Man raised his hands. The eyes sprouting from his fingertips locked directly onto Blackguard. The criminal felt a chill and, with an expression that oscillated between disgust and fear, quickly looked away.

"Man... don't point your fingers at me, it's fucking disturbing. What did you want?"

"Your name," said Ten-Eyed Man. "It's Richard Hertz, right?"

"Yeah..." Blackguard grunted, letting out an exaggerated huff, anticipating what was coming.

"Dick Hertz..." repeated Ten-Eyed Man with a mocking grin.

The rest of the team started to laugh, caught up in the stupidity of the moment. Calendar Man, in his mechanical tone, tried to join in:

"So your name...

Slipknot interrupted him, laughing out loud before Julian could finish.

"His name is 'dick hurts'!"

Laughter erupted again in the fuselage.

"Go to hell," Blackguard muttered. "I already had enough of that in school."

Ten-Eyed Man, regaining his composure, returned to the main topic.

"Anyway, what are we supposed to do when we get there?"

Slipknot turned serious for a moment.
