Creators John Ostrander, Luke McDonnell, Bob Lewis, and Karl Kesel continue their legendary run in SUICIDE SQUAD: ROGUES, collecting issues #17-25 and ANNUAL #1 of the celebrated 1980s series. The Squad will go on… Or will it? Forget the terrorists occupying American soil, the guerrilla factions killing each other off, or the aliens invading Earth.
