''Hexagon Death Squad'' is an ongoing webcomic by the troper known as [[AOD|[AOD]]]. Started in 2008, it stars a six-woman assassination squad and their adventures as they take out "criminals" for a totalitarian [[Police State]] world government in an [[Alternate History|alternate timeline]] Earth where the Cuban Missile Crisis led to a nuclear war.
The comic can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20130820111325/http://hds.comicdish.com/ here.]
