I have never read any suicide squad and have read very little Wonder Woman.
Today my friend was explaining to me that Rick Flag and Steve Trevor are the same character but I could not find anything to back it up on their pages.
I am pretty sure they are different but it is hard to tell because they both seem to have fulfilled similar roles: military dudes, Wonder Woman love interests, worked for ARGUS…
My friend claims Steve became Rick after wonder woman dumped him and he decided to go into witness protection to get over her. And now he’s dating Harley Quinn because he misses getting pushed around by a dominant woman.
I do not understand Rick flag and Steve Trevor. Is one a code name for the other? How can I tell them apart and prove to my friend he’s crazy?
