The mysterious & curvey Black Orchid


Perhaps the most mysterious of all the people who have been on the Suicide Squad Black Orchid's motives for working with Task Force X were as unclear as her origins. Black Orchid was was an on again off again non-convict member of the Squad between issues 4 - 22. She was a master of disguise, possessed superhuman strength, invulnerability and could fly. Black Orchid never talked much for some reason but was superb at infiltration assignments and often provided some extra muscle when the Squad needed back up. Considering her history with early issues of the Suicide Squad's first series Black Orchid was long past due to be featured on this blog. This rather curvy and colorful rendering of Black Orchid is by the talented Olivernome as known on his Deviant Art profile.

  2. oh Aliera, i'm hoping she's one of many Squad members from the previous DC Universe that we'll be seeing in the relaunch soon.
    by the way speaking of art work i'm talking to Val Staples right now. he's the colorist for the new Suicide Squad. i'm hoping to have a Q n'A posting of the art production process of comic pages in the comic book industry these days.

  6. Well Erin did the last time I saw her...wasn't it in one of the later F13 movies back in the mid '90's? Still hot. Time was far kinder to her than it was to Gil.
