Waller determine value in sending incarcerated villains on top clandestine missions , because it saves the US government the exploit of trying to seem heroic on the world stage .

While it seems that Red Hood was incognizant of the specifics for how the Suicide Squad procedure , with shorter prison sentences for its members if they are capable to complete their deputation , his awareness of the group ’s name is indicative of a failing on Waller ’s part . This is not the first sentence that theSuicide Squad ’s secrecy has been blow , and it manoeuver to a troubling pattern for how word spreads about the grouping in the DC Universe . With the group ’s name being so tricky , as well as descriptive of the contract bridge between its penis and Waller , it is no wonder that it is finally becoming a financial obligation for the US government .
Had the Suicide Squad not been kick in such a cool name by Waller , it is possible that she would have been able-bodied to carry out her covert missions with the squad without people like Red Hood catching on . After all , with so many member of the squad rotating out ( orgetting kill on the caper ) , there has never been a direct need for the squad to operate under one established name . The Suicide Squad ’s name lends itself to its report , which Waller has in the end realized is a major financial obligation .
Additionally , the on-going nature of Task Force X has been a job for Waller in the past , as the group was traced back to the US politics by the Atlanteans inAction Comics#1033 ( written by Phillip Kennedy Johnson , art by Daniel Sampere , colour by Adriano Lucas , letters by Dave Sharpe ) . Though the Suicide Squad is vastly utilitarian to Waller , it also puts the United States at risk of exposure for an international crisis . As such , if Waller used theSuicide Squad ’s model of recruit criminalsfor unsufferable mission as a tactic , as opposed to an ongoing operation with an prescribed codename , she might have deflect an international dirt wholly .
The premise of theSuicide Squad is a genius idea on behalf of Amanda Waller . And while the squad has always been gamey risk and high-pitched reward , the risk of infection are dangerously closemouthed to overbalance the welfare at this present instant . With the fate of the squad , and of Waller herself , in major flux justly now as the end ofSuicide team : Get Joker#1 appearance , neitherRed Hoodnor theSuicide Squadknow what their best move is give way forwards .
