Deadshot

Deadshot appeared three times in the DC Animated Universe, in Justice League and Justice League Unlimited. One episode even spotlighted his team, Task Force X, a version of the Suicide Squad. In each of the episodes Deadshot was voiced by Michael Rosenbaum. As an interesting little fact of trivia, Michael Rosenbaum, famous for playing Lex Luthor in Smallville, based his performance as Deadshot on Kevin Spacey, who would end up going on to play Lex Luthor in Superman Returns.

Origin
Floyd Lawton, the youngest of two brothers, grew up very much in the shadow of his older brother, Edward. Edward Robert Lawton was good at sports, good with books, good with the girls and everybody liked him. Everybody expected Floyd to be the same but he wasn't. So as Edward walked around being the hero, Floyd decided to be the villain. He got up to all kinds of trouble as a child. Though he very much lived in his brother's shadow, Floyd still idolized his older brother, Edward and throughout his life when under extremes of psychological stress has referred to others (for instance Rick Flag) with his brother's name.

This is all until one day the boys mother, Genevieve Lawton, asks the pair of them to kill their father. Edward accepts this request but Floyd refuses to kill his own father and so his older brother, Edward locks him in the shed behind the house. Floyd breaks out and to save his father, he picks up a rifle and climbs a tree. He looks in the window into the house to see his older brother, Edward ready to shoot his father. Floyd attempts to shoot the gun out of his brother's hands but at the last moment the branch upon which he was perched snapped and he accidentally shoots and kills his own brother, Edward. Floyd has lived, as he sees it a "meaningless" lifestyle from there on in.

Power and Abilities
Deadshot has no super human abilities. He is though an expert marksman with his phrase being "I never miss." Deadshot is also in excellent physical condition as well as being extremely agile and athletic.

Weapons and Equipment
Deadshot's main weapons are his trusty twin wrist gauntlet silenced pistols. Deadshot has been seen to use a vast range of different explosives as well as a vast arsenal of weapons including most notably his wrist pistols and a hand pistol which allows for explosive attachments.

Deadshot also wears a very durable suit of armor. This suit has allowed Deadshot to sustain large explosions as well as hails of gun fire and even gun shots from point blank range to the head, though in many of these instances it has been destroyed whilst leaving Floyd relatively unharmed. Deadshot's visor and helmet enhance his senses dramatically to the point that he can hear a humming bird's wings flapping.
