Warning ! pillager ahead forSuicide Squad # 12
In the previous issue ofDC Comics’Suicide Squad , Ambush Bug meets his fourth - bulwark - breaking soulmate using the most iconicSpider - valet de chambre pointing meme . Having been lately recruited by Director Amanda Waller , Ambush Bug is all sorting of strange and objectionable , offer up a overplus of meta - references and jokes just like Marvel ’s Deadpool who also knows he ’s a character in a comic volume . As such , the newSuicide Squad#12 ups the ante by putting Ambush Bug and DC ’s version of Wade Wilson together in the same issuance .
In late issues ofSuicide Squad , Amanda Waller has been set up her up-to-the-minute loop of Task Force X for a big move , intending to take them to Earth-3 to defeat theevil Justice League known as the Crime Syndicate . basically , Waller believes Earth-3 is so corrupted that its population wo n’t mind her refutable method so long as the human beings is saved ( unlike DC ’s primary Earth ) . However , Waller wants to be certain her team will be merciless and uncoerced to do whatever ’s necessary to get the job done . As a result , she ’s resolve to test her Suicide Squad against Earth-8 ’s Retaliators and Lightning Strikes , the respective DC counterpart to Marvel ’s Avengers and Thunderbolts .

This includes blood line Pouch inSuicide Squad # 12from Robbie Thompson , Dennis Hopeless , Eduardo Pansica , and Julio Ferreira , theDC interpretation of Marvel ’s Deadpool . As a result , Ambush Bug and Blood Pouch square off aright aside while the rest of the Squad and Strikes battle it out . While Ambush Bug is of a sudden sporting a very intimate grim and icteric scrap suit with mess of pouches reminiscent of the 90 ’s X - Force heroes , sack mocks Bug by saying he was funny in the ' 80s . However , they then recreate the classical " Spider - Man pointing " meme , involve each other the most hilarious question : " Why doyousound like an attractive Canadian ? "
While this is of class a reference toRyan Reynolds who plays the live - action Deadpool , the joke opens up an highly funny chance . While Ambush Bug has yet to grace the silver screen door , it certainly seems as thoughSuicide Squad’swriters have made their fan - cast , wanting Reynolds to play DC ’s own quaternary - wall breaker which would of course be a ace meta - joke in and of itself . Furthermore , the fact that Bug and Pouch brought the Spider - Man meme into the DC canon is brilliantly rum on its own .
Upon realizing how much they had in uncouth , Ambush Bug and Blood Pouch actually expend the rest of the issue hanging out in the trough of the risible Sir Frederick Handley Page outside the panels , point out on the fight until the Lightning Strikes are thrust to take flight . By the exit ’s end , Waller elect to bringonly the Bizarro Superboy , Black Siren , and Talon with her to Earth-3 , leaving the eternal sleep on Earth-8 ( DC ’s version of Marvel ’s 616 ) . However , while the quasi - crosswalk between theSuicide Squadand DC ’s version of their Marvel opposite number was exciting , it could n’t hold a standard candle to Ambush Bug and DC ’s Deadpool Spider - Pointing and soldering .
