Suicide Squad #2 of 8

Writer John Ostrander continues to flesh out Rick Flag's back story as he advances the plot. General Eiling is being set up as the bad guy here with Rick Flag and Rustam stuck in Skartaris - a place of dinosaurs and endless sunlight. I really like Jaui Pina's art as it captures the intensity of Rick Flag. While last issue was all action, this issue Ostrander serves up character development. I enjoyed getting Flag's history and the explanation of how he and Rustam survived when Jotunheim blew up. We get a brief glimpse of Amanda Waller with the rest of the squad absent for this issue. It is good to see Ostrander back on this title and having fun with his characters.
