Biography[]

Batman: Assault on Arkham[]

In a motel, King Shark bathed in a tub of blood in a room full of hung corpses. Amanda Waller sent some of her men to capture him. They were successful in capturing him and forced him to join the Suicide Squad. In their first meeting, King Shark attempted to eat Killer Frost and failed. Despite this, the two developed a friendship throughout their time in the Squad.

Later, the Squad parachuted into Gotham City. During the fall, Killer Frost's parachute malfunctioned and she crashed into King Shark, the two of them landed on top of a parked vehicle that was crushed on impact, but he had saved her from the fall. Soon after, he, along with the rest of the Suicide Squad, entered the sewers via a manhole, and Killer Frost sat atop King Shark's shoulder for the duration of the trek to the Iceberg Lounge.

A pivotal moment in their friendship was when he was ordered to clear the guards on the bridge. He refused to do so as he told the team that he had an extreme case of Acrophobia (fear of heights). Killer Frost told him that she would guide him across, she blindfolded him and he trusted her fully, listening to every direction she gave him.

Later, when Riddler was deactivating the bombs in their necks, Amanda Waller detonated them. Everyone except King Shark's were deactivated, as the warning beeps went off. Killer Frost yelled at Riddler to shock him again, but Riddler said his skin was too thick and it was too late, the bomb detonated killing Shark instantly.
