Okay, first things first. Yeah, the Suicide Squad game is shit, with bad writing and bad acting. But, I wonder, how much the SOURCE material impacts the adaptation. Batman: The Animated Series (Kevin Conroy one) had such LANDMARK writing and character building. IIRC, I read somewhere that Two Face and Harley Quinn were actually such well written, original characters, they were reverse adapted into the comics. Talk about awesome character work! I'm sure anyone who has seen Two Face's arc from the cartoon show remembers the goosebumps moment when Two Face is undergoing surgery, and someone tells him Bruce Wayne is picking up the tab, and he just goes "Good ol' Bruce. He was always there for me.". TL;DR Suicide Squad game is shit, because Rocksteady dropped the ball, obviously. But the source material is slop, too. EDIT: Typo in identifying the game studio behind Suicide Squad.

This COULD have worked, hear me out! This could have been Nora in the suit, and Victor in the tube. It could have shown their relationship from a reverse angle, show how differently Nora would approach trying to cure Victor. She could struggle with breaking the law for the sake of love, and know that Victor may judge her for every misdeed. They could have delved into her not only being apart from her husband, but ALSO one of the few survivors from her universe. Her husband, her body, and even the world around her all turned into a frozen wasteland. Waller could have the Squad kidnap Victor, and force Nora to get implanted with the nanobomb and join the Squad. Nora and Harley could bond over losing their loved ones (Victor and Ivy). Penguin could drop a line about sticking his version of Victor in a heated room, and Nora could snap at his cruelty. The tragic character practically writes itself! But instead we get a new woman we've never met before, whose wife was an eco-terrorist (so she doesn't have to be afraid of Nora judging her actions), and who just decides to join the squad, because why not?

So they gender bent freeze but kept Nora a female? Checks out. They wanted those checkboxes checked after all. The fact that they ignored Killer Frost… an IN-UNIVERSE established ex Squad member with Ice Powers… that happens to be a female… just so they could go out of their way to gender bend Mr Freeze and make “him” and Nora gay means that it was always about taking beloved straight male characters away.

I've unfortunately never gotten around to playing the Arkham games, but knowing Mr. Freeze and his physiology, that part where he opens up his suit visor just speaks volumes to me. Sends a shiver (hah) down my spine. It's such a little thing, yet it says so much. Victor knows Nora's on her way out, and despite requiring this suit just to survive as well as seeming like a cold hearted (hah) machine to most, he is still human. The regard he holds for his wife is clearly deep enough to the point where he's more than cool (hah) with exposing himself to a potentially fatal atmosphere just enjoy her final moments closest to her. That's at least what I got out of it. Truly a hard-hitting, yet beautiful story of the fragility of human emotion. I'm not even gonna touch on the other one. Not worthy of such analysis. Not worth the breath, not worth the typing, not worth the time. Glad we've come to an understanding.
