Floyd Lawton, a.k.a. Deadshot, first appeared in Batman #59 in 1950. The character had a family tradgedy just like Bruce Wayne however unlike Wayne,Lawton’s rage led him to a life of crime.
He figured if he could upstage and get rid of Batman, he’d then be free to control Gotham City’s underworld. Batman stopped him, however, and he disappeared until 1977. He then reappeared in his current costume, fighting—and losing to—Batman several times. In jail he was approached by Amanda Waller and Rick Flag in Legends #2, recruiting Lawton to join the Suicide Squad. But it seemed Lawton agreed out of a desire more to get killed than to escape jail. This mini-series finally begins to explain why.
