List of Suicide Squad members
The Suicide Squad is a fictional government agency, appearing in stories published by DC Comics.
The Squad's roster consists of reformed and/or incarcerated villains, promised commuted sentences in return for participation in high-risk missions. The Squad's lineup has changed many times over the years, since its creation in 1959,[1] and this list groups membership by the team's various eras and incarnations. Bolded names indicate current Suicide Squad members.
First appearance is the issue where the character first appeared as a member of a particular Suicide Squad incarnation. It is not necessarily the first appearance of the character in print, nor the story depicting how the character joined the Squad.
