!!1987 Series Field Agents

'''Blockbuster''' (Mark Desmond)
[[quoteright:285:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/les_freres_desmond_alias_blockbuster_i_et.jpg]]
* TheBerserker: The experiments he made on himself made him super-strong and gigantic, but decreased his intelligence and caused him to become mindlessly aggressive
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Ends up killed by Darkseid's creation Brimstone.
* DumbMuscle: The formula that transformed Mark into Blockbuster damaged his cognitive abilities.
* ProfessorGuineaPig: Used to be a chemist who tested his own formula on himself in an attempt to get strong.
* SuperStrength: His main power.
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Just look at the pic.

'''Bronze Tiger''' (Ben Turner)
[[quoteright:225:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/225px_bronzetigercm7.jpg]]
* AnimalMotifs: Take a guess.
* TheAtoner: After serving as a brainwashed lackey of the League of Assassins, Ben felt the need to act righteously to make up for his actions.
* BadassNormal: He is just a martial artist with no superhuman power. But he is a ''very'' good martial artist, capable of exchanging blows with ''Batman''.
* BrainwashResidue: He was justifiably freaked out by the mere possibility of this happening, so he never accepted any position higher than Waller's right hand.
* ReluctantPsycho: The whole reason he turned to martial arts was to learn to control the rage inside of him.
* ScaryBlackMan: He is black under his mask.

'''Captain Boomerang''' (Digger Harkness)
[[quoteright:193:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/suicide_squad_characters_custume_comparison_and_review_to_comics_387764.jpg]]
For more details, see Characters/TheFlashTheRogues

* BattleBoomerang: His main gimmick.
* CaptainEthnic: Australian, to be specific.
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: What he is best-known for inside the squad. Most notably, he once let Mindboggler get shot just because he didn't like her, disguised himself as Mirror Master so he could continue committing crime while still part of the squad, sold the Atom out, and convinced Slipknot to try and run away to see if his explosive bracelets worked. They did, by the way.
* CombatPragmatism: This guy ''does not'' play fair.
* DirtyCoward: More than willing to betray his teammates or run away to avoid getting hurt.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Nobody really likes him in the squad, and [[JerkAss for good reasons]].
* JerkAss: The main reason he isn't really popular amongst any team he is part of.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: He made a number of racist remarks during his tenure.

'''Count Vertigo'''

'''Deadshot'''

See [[ComicBook/{{Deadshot}} his page]] for more info.


'''Duchess''' (Lashina)
* EasyAmnesia: She suffered this upon her arrival on Earth after being shot.
* TheMole: An accidental version. She was left for dead by her fellow Female Furies, but only suffered EasyAmnesia and was allowed into the Squad as she had no Earth records. Once the amnesia wore off, Lashina decided to betray the team in the process of returning to Apokolips.
* [[PhysicalGod Physical Goddess]]: She is a New Goddess from Apokolips.

'''Enchantress''' (June Moone)

* FunctionalMagic: Her main ability.
* PowerDyesYourHair: June Moone is a natural blonde, but turns black-haired whenever she becomes the Enchantress.
* SuperPoweredEvilSide: Has one, which is her main reason for joining the squad; she was promised they could keep it in check.

'''Mindboggler'''

'''Nemesis''' (Thomas Andrew Tresser)

* MasterOfDisguise: Able to develop lifelike masks used to impersonate others.

'''Nightshade'''

'''Plastique''' (Bette Sans Souci)

* DefeatByModesty: An occasion had Firestorm defeats Plastique by vaporizing her clothes (in front of TV cameras!), both because it amuses him and because it's a convenient way to separate her from the bombs on her suit.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: She became a member of the Suicide Squad for the duration of a single mission. She attempted to betray the team during their second field operation in Qurac (under the command of Amanda Waller), but was anticipated and caught by fellow operative Nemesis, and subsequently brainwashed to suppress all memories of her membership in the Squad.
* MadBomber: One of the few times a mad bomber is female. Unlike most examples also, she was also fairly inept and had for a brief time reformed, but now she's back to bomb-throwing.
* [[DatingCatwoman Marrying Catwoman]]: Unusually, ComicBook/CaptainAtom actually married her after reformed.

'''Amanda Waller'''

[[quoteright:257:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/amanda_waller_0008.jpg]]
* AntiVillain[=/=]AntiHero: Depending on the story and the writer. Her position has placed as both an ally ''and'' and antagonist to superheroes in the DC Universe, and in either case she is trying to do good but relying on extreme methods.
* BlackBossLady
* BrokenBird: Hard to believe, but Amanda Waller was once just a more-or-less normal housewife with a family and children. Unfortunately, her husband and several of her children died in the Cabrini-Green sprawl, and she fell on ''very'' hard times. Being proud as the devil, Amanda successfully clawed her way out without relying on anybody else, whether it be welfare or extended family, and reached her current status as one of DC's premier masterminds. Her sister confessed in-series she was plainly terrified of Amanda's dark side overtaking her.
* {{Gonk}}: DependingOnTheArtist on the writer, but she is frequently depicted as overweight.
* InSeriesNickname: "The Wall"
* IronLady: You ''have'' to be commanding and have a temper when your job consists in leading a squad made entirely of villains. Even ''ComicBook/{{Batman}}'' knows better than to cross her lightly.
* MyCountryRightOrWrong: Her driving goal is her need to protect and strengthen the government she works for. It doesn't matter what methods she uses or what crimes the government may have committed, either before she was called in or after clearing things up: so long as they defend the USA, then it's acceptable.
* NecessarilyEvil: She knows full well that some of the things she does are wrong, but she justifies them as necessary. Through her crimes, she serves a greater purpose, the protection and advancement of the United States of America.
* {{Pride}}: Her main flaw. Her {{Determinator}} qualities really began to shine after the death of her husband and children, refusing both welfare and the generosity of her family, finding the first too high a cost on her dignity and the second almost a virtual insult.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: She is genuinely trying to work for the good of her country, but she isn't afraid to send dangerous supervillains on suicide missions to this end, and her methods are so drastic even some people in the government are shocked by it.

[[quoteright:341:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/3172385_6480971967_verti.png]]

* AristocratsAreEvil: By virtue of being the last descendant of the royal family who used to rule Vlatava.
* BlondGuysAreEvil
* DeathSeeker: Was this for a while, and almost entered into a duel with Deadshot for the sake of dying. He grew out of it eventually.
* HandicappedBadass: he suffers a hereditary inner ear defect that affects his balance, forcing him to use a small electronic device implanted in his right temple to make up for it. However, said device allows him to affect other people's, and even electronics' sense of balance. He's so good he managed to baffle a wave of missiles to keep them from hitting their intended target.

'''[[ComicBook/{{Deadshot}} Deadshot]]'''

* {{Badass}}: Probably one of the biggest badass in the squad.
* ChestInsignia: Wears a target-like one. Notably, it's on purpose; he ''wants'' people to try to kill him.
* DeathSeeker[=/=]TheFatalist: Is either one or the other DependingOnTheWriter. He knows he is not going to live very long either way, what really changes is weither he ''wants'' to be killed or just doesn't care.
* ImprobableAimingSkills: Probably the best marksman in the entire DC Universe.
* MoralityPet: His daughter Zoe.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: ''Deadshot''. You don't want to confront someone nicknamed that way.
* SuperWristGadget: His trademark weapon.

* HandicappedBadass: he suffers a hereditary inner ear defect that affects his balance, forcing him to use a small electronic device implanted in his right temple to make up for it. However, said device allows him to affect other people's sense of balance.

* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: What he is best-known for inside the squad. Most notably, he once let a teammate get shot just because he didn't like her, disguised himself as a different supervillain so he could continue committing crime while still part of the squad and convinced a teammate to try and run away to see if his explosive bracelets worked.
