Suicide Squad: The Knightmare Run (A Fan Snyderverse Audio Drama)
Project Overview
This is a fan project that I co-wrote with a buddy of mine. It is an audio drama that takes place in the Snyderverse in the Knightmare timeline seen within Batman V Superman and Zack Snyder's Justice League. Also, you must be willing to curse for some of, if not all of these roles. There is some cursing in some of the audition lines as well. If you are fine with that, continue, if not, turn back.
Synopsis:
Batman recruits a new Suicide Squad to try and find the kryptonite spear to defeat Superman, who is under the influence of Darkseid's anti-life equation. This is fan made and a fun project, but we want it to be as professional as possible so if you audition, give it your all!

The narrator needs to be an omnipotent being watching everything that is happening within the story and describing it to the audience. Similar to the Watcher from Marvel's What If...? series.
Superman sits alone, looking at the boxes, and reaches out. He touches the dirty glass on the other side of the ruins of a laboratory in Metropolis.
Batman pulls up a map on the computers he has set up. He sees two blinking lights, one red and one blue.
They continue to walk across the vast expanse of the desert mixed in with broken down buildings and the head of Superman's statue.
Booster Gold should come off as cocky and sarcastic at points. He is similar to Deadpool in a lot of ways, except he does not break the fourth wall. He also has an emotional side though and is really a big softie.
What, are we not gonna talk about what just happened?
Well, fuck me, dude! Your life is more depressing than a Shakespeare play!
I was able to make it through. Ted, on the other hand, didn’t make it. (tears well up in his eyes and he wipes them away) Well, that’s enough of my sob story. Does anyone else want to say anything?
Sgt. Rock is you basic US Military man. A gruff military man in the vein of Rick Flag and Peacemaker. He is a clear leader and knows how to take a squad into war.
Go, team! Go in through the front and sides.
Secure the area first.
Cute story, now we have to focus on the mission.
There is only one source of Kryptonite left on
the known earth. It’s in Belle Reve Prison locked
in a vault to which I only know the code.
I watched my friend lose both of his legs, and I
remember coming home to my wife divorcing me. She
took the kids, and I’ve never seen them again.
Constantine is a bad mouthed, cigarette addicted, self harming magic wielder. He is very sarcastic, but tortured. Has a lot of emotional baggage.
He’s a fucking freak mate. Just say it. He knows
it. Look at the fucker.
Do any of you fine gentlemen have a light?
What were you gonna do? Fly kites at them and
poke them in the eye? What the fuck are you gonna
do against them let alone Superman?
Kiteman is ex-military turned criminal. His family was killed by the Joker until he found a new lover, who was then taken by Superman. One of the most tortured characters in this audio drama.
I'll have you know I’m ex-military. I was one of
the U.S. gliders. I was trained to use gliding
technology and I’m good with guns.
I don't know, I don't talk to a lot of people.
Part of the reason is they’re all fucking dead!
Pam... Pam loved me... She was all I had and you took
her from me!
Parasite is a science experiment gone wrong. He is a monster that many are afraid of, but all he wants is to become a hero.
You have killed enough. Now the world’s saviors
need protection from the villain.
I will. I want to die a hero, and not as a
monster.
Follow him and we will live.
Multiman is cocky to a fault. He thinks he is all that and this leads to his downfall.
I was locked in an insane asylum alone and
drugged up. Trying to break out when one of those
bugs busted through the window. Then Waller came
as she did with you I guess.
So who would be considered the least useful?
What the fuck do you do? Fucking shoot things.
Why do we listen to you?
Mera is the past queen of Atlantis and bride of Aquaman who is now dead. She is fueled by rage and vengeance, trying to get revenge on Darkseid for Arthur's death.
We only have one more squad. How are we going to
beat Superman now? We lost not one, but TWO of
our strongest members in that squad. Not to
mention losing Sionis, quite possibly the
smartest person that we had! No offense.
Do you ever shut up?
Let him come. Let the bastard come. I’ll stab
this through his heart for what he did to Arthur.
Cyborg is an ex-college football star who was turned into a cyborg by a motherbox. Now Cyborg is with the remnants of the Justice League, trying to defeat Darkseid.
There are no survivors in the wreckage... Wait a
minute... I’m getting a signal. Someone’s alive,
but they’re not in the wreckage.
One of team alpha is still alive.
Should I check on team 2?
Deathstroke is a trained mercenary that has killed many throughout his time being an assassin. Now he is forced to work with his greatest enemy, Batman.
There’s more than one of these isn’t there?
You're better than him. Save him, then if it
happens, kill him. I won’t stop you.
Have you forgotten Bruce? I’m an expert when it
comes to strategy. I used to kill for a living.
It took skill to not be found. It took skill to
sneak into a building and slice a man’s throat
when his back was turned.
Superman has lost everything. Lois was killed by Darkseid and Darkseid was able to manipulate him into joining him using the anti-life equation
You killed thousands and thousands. I'm the bad
guy? What about my mother, or even Lois!? I may
have killed, but not for the reason you did.
Oh, yes... Poison Ivy. I still remember the look in
her eyes as I burnt all of her plants to the
ground and killed her...
I like you better when you shut the fuck up!
Bizarro is basically the anti-Superman. He is a part of the suicide squad at the beginning of the podcast.
When do we kill Superman?
Condiment King is basically a joke character and should be played as such
Listen, you big dope! We have yet to do anything.
We need to work together, but I would never
expect that to happen with egos as big as all of
yours.
I’m crazy.
I...I shoot condiments at people at a critical
velocity. I'm useless, I know I am.
Black Manta was once Aquaman's worst enemy, but now he has joined the Suicide Squad to try and turn a new leaf.
We shouldn’t be here. Anyway, what the hell do
you do?
That’s Joker and Harley’s thing. So what the hell
do you do?
Good to know. (Under his breath) For fuck’s sake.
Darkseid is one of the New Gods and he sounds like a monster, not a human.
Burn the corpses we will cleanse the earth.
Antilife will bring me one step closer to
cleansing the universe of its unprecedented
morals. I will have them fall under a greater
power.
He could’ve been useful but was too unhinged. We
do not need unpredictability.
They killed her. I was here on a mission to find
what was mine, but she got in the way. Your
friends were supposed to protect her. Where are
they now, my son?
Basic guard.
Hands up! Now turn around.
Bloodsport has a quick cameo right at the end of the audio drama.
That’s too bad.
Poor Bastards.
