History:
Scion of a wealthy Gotham family, Floyd Lawton adopted the guise of Deadshot, a master marksman who posed as a crime-fighter in an attempt to discredit the Batman so that Lawton could ultimately become Gotham's crime boss.
Exposed and captured by the Batman, Lawton spent several years behind bars, devising a new uniform and a battery of high-tech weapons to make Deadshot even deadlier than before. Upon his release from prison, Lawton hired out his services as a professional hitman, willing to murder anyone for a fee. Deadshot's attempted murders have consistently been thwarted by the Batman, and Deadshot is currently serving time at Gotham State Penitentiary.
Powers:
An almost inhumanly accurate marksman, Deadshot's colorful costume includes a telescopic infrared sight and a compact wrist-rifle with interchangeable barrels, enabling Deadshot to fire anything from a high-velocity bullet to a miniature grappling hook.
Deadshot is such an extraordinary marksman that he prefers to utilize ricochets and other more challenging shots to accomplish his ends.
