- "What, you think you big, Victor? Think you can pay me off? Huh? You just a kid from the Bricks who can't even steal some rims thinking he's a big-time tough guy 'cause he's working with Oz-What's-His-Fuck. Yeah, the Wizard of fucking Oz--no one sees this guy, but he's out here pulling all these strings? You know the word on the street is he's running that new drug Bliss and a bunch of heavy hitters are looking for him? Maybe I should help them out, make some real money. Or you take me to your boss. So what's it gonna be, Victor?"
- ―Squid threatening Victor shortly before his demise[src]

Biography[]
Gotham Life[]
Flooding of Gotham City[]
Squid visited Calvin and his group up the rooftop in Gotham City, where he saw Victor Aguilar avoid him, though he brushes it off. He was one of the many to witness the seawall flooding, due to the actions of Riddler, although he and his friends survived along with Aguilar, since they were at higher ground.[1]
Crime in the Aftermath[]
Squid would then be seen again scavenging through the now-ruined sections of Gotham City where he used to live, and he spotted Victor Aguilar, who was moving Francis Cobb into Calvin's apartment. Surprised to see Aguilar, Squid took note of what was happening, as Calvin had also not been seen in several weeks.[2]
Death[]
Squid confronted Victor about the Bliss operation and demanded to be made apart of it, or he’ll turn Victor and Oz Cobb into the Maroni and Gigante Crime Family. Victor later tried paying him off, but when he refused Victor shot Squid in the neck killing him.[3]
Personality[]
A petty criminal by trade, Squid has shown himself to be a greedy and unpleasant individual. Victor in particular tries to avoid him whenever possible, only working for him due to having no other choice. Squid is primarily motivated by monetary gain of any kind, and has no qualms about looting the flood-devastated Crown Point. Later, he tries to threaten Victor into cutting him in on Oz's operation, ready to sell him out to Sofia and Sal should Victor refuse. Despite Victor's attempts to pay him off, Squid insisted on meeting Oz, ultimately leading to his demise at the hands of Victor.
