Katana (Karen Fukuhara)
Also known as Tatsu Yamashiro, Katana is included in the Squad by virtue of her position as the bodyguard of Rick Flag. As such, she is not subject to the same lethal control measures as the other members. She is, however, highly skilled in martial arts, and is capable of wreaking carnage on anyone in her way – using her Soultaker blade.
The Soultaker blade is Katana’s primary weapon, and takes its name from the fact that it traps the souls of its victims. She began to use it after the murder of her husband – killed by his own brother in a dispute about ownership of Tatsu. The soul of her deceased spouse was held in the sword for a time, and she uses it in battle while she mourns for him.
[zergpaid]Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje)
Waylon Jones was born with a rare genetic condition that gives him the appearance and behavioural tendencies of a crocodile. This situation makes him one of the more fearsome members of Suicide Squad – not least because of his cannibalistic habits.
The abuse he suffered as a child – at the hands of family and foe alike – drove him deeper into a violent lifestyle. A later career path as a sideshow wrestler only cemented his bitter resentment of what he regards as “normal” people, and this further fuels his rage.
