This crossover event manages to bring together the good points of both of its constituent series. From the Aquaman point of view, we have some follow up to the events of the recently finished story arc, and a continuation of the theme of distrust between Atlantis and the U.S. military. The focus is more on the Squad, however, and here we have a typical black ops mission that inevitably goes a bit pear-shaped. In that respect, it's nothing new, but if you're going to do a Suicide Squad crossover, the sort of plot used here is a good way of doing it, with Harley and Amanda Waller being written particularly well. The slower scenes with the Aquaman characters also help to break up the non-stop fighting that tends to typify Suicide Squad so that the whole thing isn't simply a slugfest.
