“When I first wrote Villains United, I was eager to
have my chance to write one of the coolest characters in the DCU,
Deadshot.   I knew full well, like a lot of writers before me, that
John [Ostrander] was THE Deadshot writer, and I knew if I had the chance, I would
do whatever I could to see him write the character again, even if it
makes my version look horrid in comparison.” Gail Simone interviews John Ostrander.
