Rocksteady's Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is one of the year's most talked about games so far. It sees a new line-up of DC's anarchic Task Force X assembled by Amanda Waller to take on a real mission impossible: assassinate the corrupted Justice League! Set in the universe of Rocksteady's Batman: Arkham games this is a tough and edgy take on DC's heroes and villains.
As it turns out, however, Kill The Justice League is not Waller's first run in with Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, King Shark and Deadshot. A new four-issue comic, Suicide Squad: Kill Arkham Asylum, launches next week from DC and acts as a prequel to the game. Written by John Layman and drawn by Jesús Hervás, with coloring by David Baron, the new comic sees Waller visit Arkham Asylum with one thing on her mind: find strongest, smartest, and most brutal killers in order to join her new Suicide Squad.
