  Waller's new Task Force X faces a challenge when Batman infiltrates Belle Reve Penitentiary to confront her. Waller adapts to the new challenge to overcome Batman's opposition. Meanwhile, her dedication to her cause costs her the love of her family.

Publisher’s description

Amanda Waller’s journey has brought her to hell and back — from the blood-soaked streets of Chicago to the over-the-top exploits of her very own Task Force X, a.k.a. the Suicide Squad. Now, with the clock ticking on ultimate victory over the metahumans of planet Earth, the origin of DC’s most methodical menace draws to a close. But what secrets lie within the terrifying alien mind of the Brainiac Queen — and will "the Wall" survive the very seeds she herself has sown?
