Interesting take. To me their relationship is more akin to siblings, vig looks up to his elder brother chris, while chris in his own nonchalant kind of way tries to rib on his younger brother but at the same time is really protective of him as well. You have to understand they are both socially awkward characters and it is a lot easier for chris to open up to adebayo than it is to vig.

Not only did we see most of the Justice League appear, but the fact that Jason Momoa and Ezra Miller actually physically appeared and that Jason dropped an f-bomb was *chef's kiss* . 3. Now that Task Force X is known to the public, what does this mean for a future Suicide Squad movie? Will it still be the Suicide Squad as it was previously, or will it go in a new direction? Plus, it was nice to see Viola Davis make another appearance here. 4. I hope, for Season 2, give us a new opening intro while still keeping the theme song.
