"This second SUICIDE SQUAD collection of 1980s stories begins with a bang when Batman learns of the team's existence--and he's not happy! After a confrontation with their agency handler, Amanda Waller, the team is sent to take down the island headquarters of a Colombian drug cartel that's more than it seems. Then, the squad and the Justice League International cross paths when both teams try to infiltrate a Russian prison. Both teams plan to rescue the villain called Nightshade--the JLI wants him to stand trial in the U.S., but the Suicide Squad needs to add him to their ranks."--,Provided by publisher.
