Basically yes. No joke. Aside from Captain Boomerang who is a staple of the Flash's villains--it works better than the name would ever imply--and Deadshot who is a perennial B-list villain/antihero you use when you need someone who-means-business-but-not-too-heavy-business, every single one of those characters who aren't Croc and Joker/Harley are barely known outside of very obscure DC books. Well, Katana is a D-lister who shows up as support in a lot of books, but really doesn't have a character of her own other than "Japanese stereotype."

I don't think anyone would disagree I'm a pretty big human being for superheroes and comics in general and even I can't recall a single story I've read featuring Slipknot, El Diablo, or the Enchantress and I've read a loving lot. This should clue you into how disposable they're going to be in the final movie. Slipknot and El Diablo especially-- count on one or both biting the dust.

deadshot's pretty cool. he's written well in the comics i've read

The point I'm trying to make is that the only way to come out on top is to kick the Air Force in the nuts, beart it savagely with a weight and take a dump on it's face.
A well written comic book character? Well I never

Here's hoping notable character actor Will Smith brings the nuance we all know and love to the silver screen with his portrayal of beloved superhero and/or villain Red Bullet Punch Man

Deadshot is a lot of fun and I'm more intrigued to see how Will Smith translates the character more than any other aspect of Suicide Squad. He's also completely-loving-unknown outside of committed DC fans aside from Arkham City.

It helps when you've got writers like Ostrander and Simone making you their pet projects and aren't under the same kind-of scrutiny and brand dilution as the big boys.

Enchantress was in a bunch of Shadowpact books where it was an all magic guy team and a detective monkey. Last time I saw Slipknot was as a suspect for Sue Dinby's murder during Identity Crisis. You've loving got me on El Diablo though, only El Diablo I know is pretty much Zorro and kicks the poo poo out of people back in the late 1800s so you can bet this guy is getting blown away in the first 5 seconds to show that the situation is "REAL poo poo"

Deadshot got a few moments in that Arrow TV show which is pretty popular so he's probably more well known than most of the others in that cast already. Most of them only show up in cartoons right?

give her a bowl of rice and a calculator while we're capitalizing on her being japanese

I actually like how they did the tank top under the open jacket, it's evocative of Japanese Yankee fashion, the wraps that stereotypical Japanese high school female toughs wear.
