10 Things You Need To Know About Killer Croc Before You See Suicide Squad

One of the most exciting things about Suicide Squad for a comic book fan is that the movie will bring a team of mostly lesser-known characters to the big screen for the first time. Yes, it features big hitters like the Joker and a cameo from Batman, but apart from them, the likes of Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Katana and Enchantress are not that familiar to wider audiences.

What Croc does have in common with a lot of the Dark Knight’s enemies is that he’s not a two-dimensional villain and is only on the bad side due to a traumatic life. It’s not easy being green…and scaly.

Little Waylon Jones immediately got a rough start in life when his mother died during childbirth. Not only that, but his father soon abandoned him too, due to his horrifying skin disorder, leaving Waylon in the “care” of his abusive and alcoholic aunt.

After years of being mistreated by her for his stranger appearance, Jones finally snapped and violently killed his aunt (as well as consuming the body afterwards). From that day on, Waylon Jones was dead and Killer Croc was born.
