**NON SPOILERS AND SCORE AT THE BOTTOM**
I would like to suggest something radical that could
change the nature of many comic books coming from the DC offices these days:
superheroes do what they do, in part, because it is fun. They enjoy it. They
may be motivated by a death in the family, or guilt, or a youth spent at the 4H
Club, but ultimately they zap things with hand blasters because it’s a good
time. And villains are the same way. You think it’s expedient for the Riddler
to set up those complicated, oversized death traps just to rob a museum? His
net profit must be less than five percent—and that’s if he pulls off the heist, which is unlikely. Anyway, I’d really like
to see some of this so-called fun employed in this title. Everyone is such a
sad sack all the time, tasked with responsibility and misery and bitter
feelings, when really they could be reveling in the fact that they can employ
their bizarre talents on the government’s dime. Then again, they haven’t gone
anywhere outside of New Orleans for like nine fucking issues, so maybe
resentment has set in. You know when I’m reviewing the comic book at hand in
the introduction, things are about to get heated! Strap in for a potentially
incendiary review of Suicide Squad
#14, right here!
