With a tragic back story of an abusive father, Floyd grew looking up to his brother. When trying to defend himself, he shot at his father with a shot gun, causing a fragment to miss and kill his brother. Starting the psychotic persona of Deadshot, young Floyd would be mo more. Boasting that he never misses a shot, this character was notably portrayed in the most recent Arkham series of Batman games, leading to a final epic confrontation with the Dark Knight himself. Often introduced as a hired gun, Deadshot is soon picked up by the Suicide Squad as an assassin.
