The Suicide Squad director James Gunn has taken to Twitter to share a first look at this month's Total Film covers, which spotlight every member of the revamped Task Force X.

The newsstand cover features Harley Quinn, Bloodsport, Peacemaker, King Shark and the rest of the team emerging from the ocean, while the subscribers only version finds the gang in more fiery surroundings.

Which (if any) of these guys will make it to the end credits? Well, Gunn recently responded to a fan's character death predictions by telling him that he was being "overly optimistic to say the least," so we wouldn't go getting overly attached to any of 'em (not even Peacemaker, who's upcoming HBO Max series is expected to be a prequel).

Check out the covers below.

"Welcome to hell — a.k.a. Bell Reve, the prison with the highest mortality rate in the US of A. Where the worst Super-Villains are kept and where they will do anything to get out — even join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X. Today's do-or-die assignment? Assemble a collection of cons, including Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin, and everyone's favorite psycho, Harley Quinn. Then arm them heavily and drop them (literally) on the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese."
"Trekking through a jungle teeming with militant adversaries and guerrilla forces at every turn, the Squad is on a search-and- destroy mission with only Colonel Rick Flag on the ground to make them behave...and Amanda Waller’s government techies in their ears, tracking their every movement. And as always, one wrong move and they’re dead (whether at the hands of their opponents, a teammate, or Waller herself). If anyone’s laying down bets, the smart money is against them—all of them."

The Suicide Squad is set to premiere on HBO Max and in theaters on August 6.

Was interested in this before, but after they showed more of King Shark I really got hyped for it. I wouldn't be surprised if he steals the show.

At leas they included Pete Davidson in this one. I mean he's way in the back and you really have to zoom in to see him, but at least he's there. They did your boy Nathan Fillion dirty though.
