10 Insane Suicide Squad Moments The Sequel Won't Show You

8. The Team Almost Kill Superman

It's massively unsurprising that the Suicide Squad have clashed with many heroes in their time on the printed page. They are still bad guys, after all, and often the tasks Waller is sending them to do are at least kind of illegal, if not outright violations of the Geneva Code.

Usually, though, this equals a brief unpleasant interaction with Batman, and not an outright team versus team fight with the Justice League against the Suicide Squad.

While you'd expect that this scenario would just become the heroes beating down on the villains-slash-anti-heroes, the Squad manage something seemingly almost impossible: killing Superman.

Killer Frost uses her ability to take all the heat out of something to basically freeze Supes half to death. Though he'd come back to normal thanks to Killer Frost undoing some of her damage (and because Waller didn't want the spaceman dead), it was still a phenomenally shocking moment for all who read it.

Since we're still at a point where the DCEU needs to keep establishing Supes as no pushover, it's probably wise to leave this fight out of the film world for now.
