'Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #2' Reviews Say Both Sides Had Shining Moments; Illustrations On Point

The "Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #2" comic book left fans wondering what could happen between two of the most recognized factions in the DC Universe. That being said, a recap is in order for both the pros and cons of the recent graphic novel issue.

After what seemed to be an inevitable clash of the titans in the first issue, "Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #2" highlights many of the characters' moments wherein each one showed their contribution to the fight. One such remarkable moment is that of the battle between Aquaman and Killer Croc, where the reptile-human hybrid proved his strength by ripping a shark in half.

According to recent reviews from Batman News, Killer Croc was also proven wrong by attempting to bite the rock-hard suit of Aquaman, rendering his teeth broken in the process. While this may be less of a favor to the Squad, another standout moment is when Enchantress seemed to discourage and find the weakness of Superman with magic. Another iconic bit is that of the battle between Deadshot and Batman, one that many comic book fans may no longer be surprised over.

Another report from Newsarama justified how "Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #2" seemingly does not favor anyone in particular, as even the almighty Wonder Woman falls under Harley Quinn's grasp. Opening up her bag of tricks, the rather unpredictable Suicide Squad member fools Diana Prince over and over, leaving a trail of uncertain threats.

On the negative side of the issue, the aforementioned reviews are backed by claims that the way the dialogues were made were a little too obvious -- giving away the backstory of some characters. An example is how Cyborg consoled Killer Frost, despite their differences. The visual illustrations were also commended, making it a lot sharper than its predecessor.

Overall, "Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #2" ended with the whole League imprisoned under Amanda Waller's jurisdiction. It was implied that the two associations will have to team up to go against the Max Lord alliance in the forthcoming issue. "Justice League vs. Suicide Squad #3" goes on sale in January 4, 2017.
