Brick is a tall African-American male with a muscular frame and red skin. He has a short white goatee, and wears his hair in cornrows. He has a penchant for wearing tailor-made suits.[3]
He was imprisoned in Belle Reve Penitentiary, where he managed to form his own group, though still answered to the "capo", Icicle Sr.. He participated in the riot and attempted breakout, and threatened to kill the warden, Amanda Waller, but Hugo Strange convinced Brick that Waller was more useful alive.[1]
