Warning ! Spoilers ahead forTask Force Z # 2
While DC Comics’Red Hood(aka Jason Todd ) may be leading a team of supervillains - turned - zombie inTask Force Z , his undead teammates are more than get together the eye . Despite their decay flesh and desire to consume their objective ( and Jason himself ) , the members of Project Halperin are a impertinent take on the concept of living dead . As an example , it ’s been revealed that they can sometimes eliminate as living , even speaking as the baddie they once were before they died .
InTask Force Z , Jason Todd has been forcibly chosen to lead Project Halperin , an offset of The Suicide Squad run by Amanda Waller . However , instead of simply injecting bombs into the head of supervillains to force their compliance , Halperin has incur a means to resurrect villains who are already dead such asBane , Man - Bat , Arkham Knight , and more , by injecting them with resin derive from the supernatural Lazarus Pits . The Pits themselves are most illustrious for being used by the League of Assassin ’s Ra ’s al Ghul with the piss granting immortality via Resurrection of Christ .

However , regulating the dose of the less utter resin allows the new government activity task force to ensure their asset by mold just how alive they want them to be . For example , Task Force # 2from author Matthew Rosenberg and artist Eddy Barrows see Jason Todd ’s Red Hood having a full - on conversation with the Arkham Knight back at their radical of operations even though she was a full - on mindless zombie who lose her leg during their last mission and almost eat Jason . As such , it ’s revealed that an increased acid of Lazarus resin used to regrow her legs allows theArkham Knight to regain her mental capacities(while also looking much more awake ) .
It certainly seems as though these particular villains could be brought back to life fully if they were given access to the full powers of the Lazarus Pits . Instead , the powers of the resin seemingly ensure that they can be command . While a excess of the rosin puts them nearer to being alive again , an modal dose keep them in the preferred zombie state while a shortage or absence of the resin would take to the baddie either being uncontrollable zombies and eventually dead once more as the resin ’s effect disappearance . As a resolution , the idea ofTask Force Z ’s artificially - create zombie , which can theoretically be controlled , is a rather interesting one .
Even so , Jason Todd ’s Red Hood remains middling dubious that his fresh team will be the ongoing success Project Halperin want them to be . Wanting someone he can trust amidst these zombified villains who could turn around and exhaust him at any moment , Task Force Z offers Jason the clay of Deadshot , presumedly intending to bring him back to life ( though it ’s unreadable to what extent ) . In any case , Task Force Zis more than the ordinary story about the undead , and it ’s going to be exciting to see whereRed Hood’szombie team go from here .
