Secret Six #4 - DC



The lastest chapter in our team of Anti-heroes. And what could make it better than the last three? How 'bout the arrival of the Doom Patrol. Fantastic! We start with Vandal Savage consulting with Dr. Psycho and Cheshire about his plans for the 6. He still wants to spare Catman to procreate with his daughter. As their talking he slurpping down his dinner, which he has fed to the other 2 as well. It turns out it's Solomon Grundy soup. Now the 6 come across the Doom Patrol. The DP trys to talk them down, but you just know that that's not going to work. A battle ensues, and both teams take a pretty good beating. It looks like the DP may win, until the S6 bring in the Mad Hatter. He really messes with their heads. Meanwhile Vandal decides that he's going to have to use his daughters friends against her in order to get her to come to him. Now you know that Scandal is in love with Knockout, and I don't know how VS manipulated it, but Lawton and Knockout end up sleeping together, and Scandal comes walking in on them. I think this might be the thing that sends her over the edge. Gail Simone had done it again. Kudos!!!
