Films

  • In Batman: Assault on Arkham, Task Force X featured in the animated film where they were referred to as a black ops covert team consisting of supervillain convicts deployed on classified missions. Amanda Waller was in charge of the program with the convicts implanted with bombs to ensure compliance with numerous iterations of the squad. The Riddler had hacked the files of Task Force X containing all information on former, current and future squad members. Thus, Amanda Waller activated a new Suicide Squad and dispatched them to Arkham Asylum to recover the Riddler's cane that held the thumb drive with the information.
  • In Suicide Squad, the Suicide Squad made their first appearance in the DC Extended Universe where they appeared in the live-action film. They were officially a part of Task Force X that was headed by Amanda Waller. Waller wanted to use Metahuman criminals as deniable and disposable black ops team to be used against Metahuman threats. After securing government approval, she recruited a team that consisted of villains locked away in the Belle Reve blacksite. Its members included Deadshot, Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, El Diablo, Killer Croc, Slipknot and the Enchantress. Heading the team was Rick Flag with Katana serving as support to manage the squad who had nanite bombs to insure compliance.
