Download or read book Suicide Squad The Rebirth Deluxe Edition Book 2 written by Rob Williams and published by DC Comics. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ThereÕs something rotten in Belle Reve Penitentiary, and itÕs not just the swamp water leaking into the basement. Someone in the Suicide Squad has turned traitor, leaving AmericaÕs deadliest super-team open to attack from a vast international conspiracy bent on destroying everything that Task Force X director Amanda Waller has built. Considering that ÒThe WallÓ relies less on loyalty and trust and more on brain-implanted bombs to control her crew of conscripts, finding the culprit is going to be a tall order. Any one of the rogues in this gallery-including Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, Enchantress and Killer Croc-would almost certainly climb over a pile of their teammatesÕ corpses for the chance to escape. But even when sheÕs down for the count, Waller has a few aces up her sleeve, including 1) the deranged Kryptonian war criminal, General Zod, and 2) her own unequaled, bloody-minded ruthlessness. Bending Zod to her will, however, means striking a bargain with one of SupermanÕs deadliest enemies-and one of the only people on the planet smarter and more tenacious than Waller herself. But no matter how powerful the leverage she finds to use against him, in the end Zod kneels for no one. Will WallerÕs plan to make this living weapon of mass destruction a full-fledged member of the Suicide Squad live up to its enormous potential? Or will it literally and figuratively blow up in her face? Acclaimed author Rob Williams is joined by artists John Romita Jr., Tony S. Daniel, Riley Rossmo, Giuseppe Cafaro and Stjepan Sejic in Suicide Squad: Rebirth Deluxe Edition Book 2.

Download or read book An Apartment on Uranus written by Paul B. Preciado and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “dissident of the gender-sex binary system” reflects on gender transitioning and political and cultural transitions in technoscientific capitalism. Uranus, the frozen giant, is the coldest planet in the solar system as well as a deity in Greek mythology. It is also the inspiration for uranism, a concept coined by the writer Karl Heinrich Ulrich in 1864 to define the “third sex” and the rights of those who “love differently.” Following Ulrich, Paul B. Preciado dreams of an apartment on Uranus where he might live beyond existing power, gender and racial strictures invented by modernity. “My trans condition is a new form of uranism,” he writes. “I am not a man. I am not a woman. I am not heterosexual. I am not homosexual. I am not bisexual. I am a dissident of the gender-sex binary system. I am the multiplicity of the cosmos trapped in a binary political and epistemological system, shouting in front of you. I am a uranist confined inside the limits of technoscientific capitalism.” This book recounts Preciado's transformation from Beatriz into Paul B., but it is not only an account of gender transitioning. Preciado also considers political, cultural, and sexual transition, reflecting on issues that range from the rise of neo-fascism in Europe to the technological appropriation of the uterus, from the harassment of trans children to the role museums might play in the cultural revolution to come. An Apartment on Uranus is a bold, transgressive, and necessary book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Batman has broken Deadshot out of Belle Reve! Now the Dark Knight and the assassin who never misses have a new mission: rescue Deadshot's daughter! The squad takes on Batman...and Deadshot? Batman. You've probably heard of him. Dresses like a bat. Hates criminals. Hates guns. Then there's Deadshot, the world's most accurate and deadly assassin. Loves guns. Practically is a gun. So why would Batman break into Belle Reve Prison, sneak Deadshot out from under Amanda Waller's nose, and bring the whole Suicide Squad down on both of them? Well, Deadshot's teenage daughter has been kidnapped by the reptilian death cult Kobra, who want to transform her into their new leader to take revenge on her dad. And if Batman is going to rescue her, it has to be with Deadshot's help...as long as the assassin agrees not to kill anyone while they're teamed up. Of course, killing people is Deadshot's thing. Then there's the small matter that while Batman is tracking Kobra, the Suicide Squad and their new field leader Captain Cold are tracking Batman. When everyone converges and the bullets and freeze rays start flying, will Deadshot be able to become the hero Batman wants him to be to rescue his daughter? Or will Batman end up in the Suicide Squad with a bomb in his brain? Writer Rob Williams (Justice League Vs. Suicide Squad) and a team of talented artists present the final chapter for the Suicide Squad! Collects issues #41-44, #47-50, and Annual #1.
