Just as DC has been giving some indie comics folks like Charles Soule, Ray Fawkes, and Jeff Lemire time in the spotlight within the DC Universe, so too are they about to bring a name from the indies that's been receiving much acclaim as of late: Ales Kot.

Kot is best known for his works at Image -- Wild Children and Change -- but as of May, he'll also be the new writer on Suicide Squad alongside new artist Timothy Green II. The creative team won't be the only thing changing however, as the solicitation coming soon from DC also promises new team members and a totally new direction as Amanda Waller brings on some new recruits.Issue #20 features an explosive cover by Jason Pearson, which you can see below.
