Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #5 (2017, DC Comics)
Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #5 (March 2017), written by Joshua Williamson with art and cover by Robson Rocha and inks by Jay Leisten, is the fifth issue of DC’s six-issue Rebirth crossover event, nearing the climax of the epic clash between the Justice League and the Suicide Squad. This 32-page issue, priced at $3.99 and rated T, sees the Justice League—Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and others—deepening their uneasy alliance with Amanda Waller’s Task Force X, including Harley Quinn, Deadshot, and Captain Boomerang, to counter the catastrophic threat of Maxwell Lord and his original Suicide Squad. As Lord’s plan to destabilize the world unfolds, the fragile coalition faces internal strife and external assaults, with betrayals and sacrifices pushing both teams to their limits. Joshua Williamson’s script delivers relentless action and emotional stakes, while Robson Rocha’s kinetic art captures the chaotic battles and the escalating menace of Lord’s endgame. Variant covers, such as those by Amanda Conner or Andy Kubert (noted in collector discussions), enhance its collectible appeal.
