3) Suicide Squad
The most famous supervillain team in the world at the moment has to be the Suicide Squad. A few years ago, the anti-hero squad was a fairly obscure but beloved property only known to DC fans. Since Warner Bros. released the commercially-successful – if critically-reviled – Suicide Squad, however, the team’s popularity has gone through the roof.
If you’ve seen the movie, you’ll know the drill. Assembled by fierce government agent Amanda ‘The Wall’ Waller, Task Force X AKA the Suicide Squad is comprised of super-criminals forced to go on covert missions thanks to the deadly chips placed in their necks which will kill them if they rebel.
Retooled by Marv Wolfman into the team we know today in 1987, the Squad is usually led by Colonel Rick Flag with the members commonly including Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, Killer Frost, King Shark, Bronze Tiger, Plastique and, in recent years, Harley Quinn.
