Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #1 (2017, DC Comics)
Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #1 (February 2017), written by Joshua Williamson with art and cover by Jason Fabok and colors by Alex Sinclair, is the first of a six-issue limited series, marking the inaugural major crossover event of DC’s Rebirth era. This 40-page issue, priced at $3.99 and rated T, kicks off with the Justice League—led by Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and others—discovering the existence of Amanda Waller’s covert Task Force X, the Suicide Squad, comprising black-ops villains like Harley Quinn, Deadshot, and Captain Boomerang with bombs implanted in their heads. The League, Earth’s paragons of justice, aims to shut down the Squad, sparking a fierce confrontation as Waller’s team refuses to yield. Meanwhile, a shadowy threat led by Maxwell Lord and his team of villains, the original Suicide Squad, emerges, setting the stage for a larger conflict that forces uneasy alliances. Fabok’s dynamic art captures the explosive hero-villain clash, making this a visually stunning opener to the event. The issue includes variant covers, such as the Tyler Kirkham Harley Quinn cover noted on X posts.
