Deadshot is the greatest known mercenary in the world. He's known to never miss and always get the job done, but as of lately it appears he made be shifting to a more heroic side of the law. Edit


News

Deadshot is DC’s greatest Marksman, boasting that he never misses. In his childhood, His mother and father had a deep hate for each other. His mother went so far as to hire Floyd and his brother to kill their father. This lifestyle has made Deadshot both homicidal and suicidal. He first appeared in Gotham City as a new crime fighter, but it was revealed that this was only an elaborate hoax to replace Batman. When this scheme failed, he attempted to head the Gotham underworld, but was exposed and arrested by Batman and Commissioner Gordan.

After he got out of jail, Deadshot became a hired assassin, and has been a great help in the passed two Suicide Squads. When he was on hiatus from the squad, his son was raped and killed by a pedophile. Floyd took revenge on the man. Later, his suit was stolen by an airport employee, who began to steal and kill with it. Deadshot killed him, but killing his own image affected him. He didn’t even fix the hole in the costume for a long time. During the Suicide Squad’s last mission, Deadshot was asked by Count Vertigo if he would kill him. Deadshot agreed, and both of them went to a secret location to await Vertigo’s decision. He declined, and Deadshot did not question the decision.

Later, when he was under Neron’s influence, he tried to kill kindergarteners with an explosion, but was stopped by the Justice League. Deadshot was offered North America if he joined the Secret Six, and was threatened that if he didn’t join the team, he would have his daughter’s neighborhood blown up by Mockingbird (Lex Luthor). A stalemate was reached at the end of the series, and Deashot’s status remained unchanged. He was found in bed with Knockout, but she revealed that she was only using him.

Children

Knowing that he had had a son he later discovered he also had a daughter named Zoe living in Star City. He embarked on a campaign to clear up the crime around where she lived and later convinced Green Arrow to patrol that area more often.

Salvation Run

In Countdown to Final Crisis,Deadshot as a member of the Suicide Squad is assigned to capture The Trickster and Pied Piper,during the mission Deadshot disobeys orders and shoots the Trickster in the head killing him.Deadshot joined the Suicide Squad to try to round up super villains for removal from the planet. It gets tricky though because the super villains are aware of Project Salvation (Salvation Run). In Salvation Run #2, Deadshot was tricked and double crossed then sent to the prison planet along with the last batch of criminals which included Catwoman, Lex Luthor and Bane.
