Post-Flashpoint
Following the Flashpoint, a new version of reality was created with a different history of events.
Monroe was one of many villains invited to join the Secret Society of Super-Villains by the Crime Syndicate of America, an evil version of the Justice League from Earth 3. The Weasel was among the crowd of Society members who attended a meeting outside the destroyed Justice League Watchtower hosted by the Syndicate. The Syndicate announced to the villains that they had defeated the Justice League, and therefore they were free to do as they saw fit with the planet. (Forever Evil v1 #1)

Television
- In Creature Commandos, Weasel appeared in the setting of the animated television series where he was voiced by actor Sean Gun. Set after The Suicide Squad, Weasel's origins were unknown but he once approached Sunnyhill School and a group of children playing there. A young girl offered Weasel a chocolate bar, which he happily ate. A boy then offered Weasel an apple, leading Weasel to come out from behind the bushes and eat the apple. Weasel befriended the kids, and one day played a game with them in which Weasel would attempt to get a ball as the kids threw it to each other. At one point, Weasel fell into the door to the school, knocking it open, and pushing it open. Weasel playfully fought with a girl for the ball, causing it to pop. One of the students discovered that the school was open, so they all ran inside. Weasel eventually joined them inside and followed a ball held by one of the girls. She threw it into the boiler room and Weasel rushed to retrieve it, sitting with it by the door. The students joined Weasel in the boiler room, and one girl pet him. Weasel then played fetch with one of the girls, when Georgie dropped an alcohol bottle right as another was playing with matches, resulting in a fire. Weasel saw the fire but continued playing, playfully tackling a girl. An old man then came into the boiler room and threatened Weasel with a shotgun, demanding he leave the kids alone. Weasel stopped, but the man fired anyway. Weasel hid behind the boiler, but the man continued firing, resulting in an oil leak. Weasel watched and got one girl to safety as the oil hit the fire, resulting in an explosion that destroyed the school. Weasel watched one of the students draw his last breath and looked up as he saw the only survivor, the girl he had gotten to safety. Seeing her crying, Weasel jumped through the fire and hugged her. He attempted to take the girl to safety and saw two police officers looking through a window. The police officers thought Weasel was trying to hurt the girl and shot at Weasel, causing him to run through the school. Cornered by the fire, he ran down a hallway that ended with an open window, through which the police shot him, hitting him in the shoulder. Weasel recovered and ran to the door with the girl, but the police officers got in the way and shot him multiple times, forcing him to drop the girl. The police officers pinned him to the ground as the girl was crushed by falling debris. Weasel screamed for the girl as he was dragged off and placed under arrest, blamed for the deaths of the children.
Films
- In The Suicide Squad, Weasel appeared in the setting of the live-action film where he was portrayed by actor Sean Gunn. His origins were not explored but he was accused of going around causing havoc, which supposedly included the deaths of twenty-seven children, until he was finally caught and detained in Belle Reve. Weasel was then forcibly drafted into Task Force X by Amanda Waller. In August 2020, Weasel was sent on a mission to Corto Maltese to destroy the prison and laboratory known as Jotunheim and wipe out all traces of the dangerous Project Starfish, despite him having no idea what was going on. Three days before embarking on his mission, Weasel observed Bloodsport being recruited, while he uncomfortably licked his cell. He seemingly drowned on a mission while being airdropped onto the island's coast. However, a post-credit scene revealed that he had survived where he came to flee into the local jungle.
