Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of [[Meta Human|metahumans]] to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented [[Justice League|league of heroes]]—Batman, Wonder Woman, [[Aquaman]], [[Cyborg]] and [[The Flash]]—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.<ref>[http://collider.com/justice-league-movie-synopsis/ ''Official ‘Justice League’ Synopsis and Logo Revealed'' - Collider]</ref> |

Through his research, he was able to develop the Nano-Bomb: a powerful explosive that was small enough to be injected into a victim. Once detonated, it would cause the victim's head to explode.

Joker and his gang then assaulted Van Criss Laboratories, using a bomb to incapacitate the security guard. After massacring countless doctors and employees, the Joker found Van Criss in a containment zone. He startled the doctor by firing at the shatterproof glass before showing him a live feed of his wife being tortured by Joker's gang. She begged Van Criss to obey the Joker, so Van Criss opened the lab door, allowing Joker and [[Jonny Frost]] to enter. To force Van Criss to obey him, Joker injected him with a spare Nano-Bomb. |

Dr. Van Criss was a scientist working for Wayne Enterprises and an ally of A.R.G.U.S., known to have been the one to create the nano-bombs that Amanda Waller would implant into the Suicide Squad members. He was, however, later apprehended and tortured by the Joker, forced to help the latter free Harley Quinn, but was himself killed in the process.
Biography
Suicide Squad
Constructing the Nano-Bombs
Sometime before the events of Suicide Squad, Dr. Van Criss was employed by Wayne Enterprises' weapons department. Through his research, he was able to develop the Nano-Bomb: a powerful explosive that was small enough to be injected into a victim. Once detonated, it would cause the victim's head to explode. Amanda Waller purchased the Nano-Bombs and used them to control Task Force X.
Interrogated by the Joker
The Joker learned of the Nano-Bombs existence from Griggs, who also informed him of Van Criss' location. Joker and his gang then assaulted Van Criss Laboratories, using a bomb to incapacitate the security guard. After massacring countless doctors and employees, the Joker found Van Criss in a containment zone. He startled the doctor by firing at the shatterproof glass before showing him a live feed of his wife being tortured by Joker's gang. She begged Van Criss to obey the Joker, so Van Criss opened the lab door, allowing Joker and Jonny Frost to enter. To force Van Criss to obey him, Joker injected him with a spare Nano-Bomb.
Death
- "Professor, could you pick up the pace?""
- ―The Joker[src]
Joker brought Van Criss along with him during his rescue of Harley Quinn, as he was the only person who knew how to defuse the bomb. They were able to hijack one of Amanda Waller's planes, meeting her and the Suicide Squad on the roof of a building. As Frost and Joker opened fire on the Squad, Van Criss defused Harley's Nano-Bomb, allowing her to jump on-board the plane. As they flew away however, the plane was shot down by the United States Army, causing it to crash. Though Joker survived, Van Criss likely did not.
