Suicide Squad: Ranking All 11 Characters Revealed So Far

4. Killer Croc

Along with King Shark, the subterranean terror was always going to be the most difficult character to sell - particularly in the wake of Nolan's more realistic Batman franchise. And while there's the faintest whiff that he looks a bit like a Goombah from the live action Super Mario Bros film, it's most a strong look.

Lost's Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje is almost entirely unrecognisable under the excellent make-up, and though some fans will be annoyed that there isn't more of a crocodilian design, this Killer Croc actually looks like the character design of old.

Besides, had he just been a giant walking crocodile it wouldn't exactly have been the most accessible of characters, now would it? In this case, it's definitely a good thing that Ayers avoided referencing the New 52 versions of the character.
