Braun's 'Suicide Squad XXX' Hits DVD

CANOGA PARK, Calif.—Wicked Pictures' fourth entry in its Wicked Comix line and first ever production shot in 4K Ultra HD, Suicide Squad XXX: An Axel Braun Parody, arrives today on DVD after premiering August 3 on Wicked.com.

Though the parody's mainstream counterpart has proven a dismal flop with critics, registering a 26 percent rating on RottenTomatoes.com, it enjoyed a record opening weekend one week ago, taking in $135 million domestically and $267 million worldwide. Braun and company are hoping this unique contradiction in responses will result in a heightened enthusiasm for his version. There's already been some promise of such, with mainstream personalities the Soska Sisters, of GSN horror game show Hellevator, raving on social media, "Axel Braun is killing it!! We love Tommy Pistol's Joker - he's right on the money."

In addition to Pistol, the movie features Kleio Valentien reprising her 2016 AVN Award-winning role as Harley Quinn from Braun's Batman v Superman XXX, along with Wicked Girl Asa Akira as Katana, Anna Bell Peaks as Killer Frost, Katy Kiss as Poison Ivy and Axel Braun Productions contract girl Riley Steele as Enchantress. Filling out the male side of the bill are Lexington Steele as Deadshot, Charles Dera in his second outing as Batman (following Braun's Supergirl XXX), Owen Grey as The Riddler and Seth Gamble as Captain Boomerang.

Valentien is already generating her own wave of buzz about her return to the role that scored her AVN's Best Supporting Actress trophy, with sites as diverse Die-Screaming, 9gag, CelebJihad and Reddit's Cosplay Girls heaping praise upon her. 

"Sometimes the journey is more important than the destination," Braun said, "and this project really was a fantastic journey with an extraordinary cast and an amazing crew, and with the support of the best adult company in the business. The fact that it's receiving so many accolades is first and foremost a validation to the effort and dedication of all these people, and I am beyond proud and thankful to have had the opportunity to work alongside them."

Commented Wicked president Steve Orenstein, "Axel shows again that he has a deep understanding of what both the comic book and porn fans want. It's exciting to hear the buzz around the title from distributors, retailers and fans alike."
