Foundation[edit | hide]
Following Superman's death during his conflict with Doomsday, Director Amanda Waller of A.R.G.U.S. became concerned over rogue Metahuman activities and the government's inability to counteract said threats. Waller then proposed to assemble a task force of expandable yet effective criminals currently in custody, allowing them to complete missions in exchange for commuted prison sentences. In order to convince the government, Dr. June Moone was brought to a government meeting and transformed into the Enchantress, using her abilities to acquire Iranian nuclear plans. The task force was then sanctioned under the name "Task Force X" with Rick Flag assigned as the field leader.[1][2]
Recruitment[edit | hide]
