Wade, nicknamed Deadshot, was an archer in the El's army and a henchman of General Waller. He claimed to be able to hit his target at a greater range than any other soldier.

History

Wade was aware of General Waller's pact with the White Martians, and accompanied her to their hideout after their plan to foment war between the Lands of El and the Kingdom of Storms and the Amazons failed. They attempted to open a gap in the castle's defences that would allow the invaders to enter and destroy all the world's superpowered protectors, but the Martians were foiled by the three kingdoms working together. Waller murdered Deadshot and framed him as the traitor to save herself.
