Amanda Waller, “El muro”, ha luchado con uñas y dientes para intentar mantener en activo al Escuadrón Suicida, un grupo formado por agentes metahumanos que se dedica a llevar a cabo operaciones encubiertas. Junto a Jaque Mate, una agencia de espionaje secreta gubernamental, forman la Fuerza Especial X de Amanda Waller, encargándose de las misiones que el gobierno de los Estados Unidos considera demasiado peligrosas para cualquier otro. Pero los miembros de la Fuerza Especial X no son los únicos encargados de hacer el trabajo sucio para el gobierno... Cuando Waller descubre una conspiración con el nombre en clave de “Directriz Jano”, queda en evidencia que otra agencia del gobierno tiene la intención de eliminar a la Fuerza Especial X, y el número de bajas no es un aspecto a tener en cuenta. ¿Se trata del comienzo de una guerra secreta sin cuartel entre los agentes más peligrosos del país, o tal vez haya alguien más moviendo los hilos para satisfacer sus propios intereses? Y si es así, ¿por fin alguien ha logrado lo imposible y ha conseguido burlarse del muro?
