We investigate the complex-temperature singularities of the susceptibility of the 2D Ising model on a square lattice. From an analysis of low-temperature series expansions, we find evidence that as one approaches the point $u=u_s=-1$ (where $u=e^{-4K}$) from within the complex extensions of the FM or AFM phases, the susceptibility has a divergent singularity of the form $\chi \sim A_s'(1+u)^{-\gamma_s'}$ with exponent $\gamma_s'=3/2$. The critical amplitude $A_s'$ is calculated. Other critical exponents are found to be $\alpha_s'=\alpha_s=0$ and $\beta_s=1/4$, so that the scaling relation $\alpha_s'+2\beta_s+\gamma_s'=2$ is satisfied. However, using exact results for $\beta_s$ on the square, triangular, and honeycomb lattices, we show that universality is violated at this singularity: $\beta_s$ is lattice-dependent. Finally, from an analysis of spin-spin correlation functions, we demonstrate that the correlation length and hence susceptibility are finite as one approaches the point $u=-1$ from within the symmetric phase. This is confirmed by an explicit study of high-temperature series expansions.
