Notes:
Believing that Deadshot betrayed the Squad, Katana cuts off Lawton's left hand. At the end of the issue, Lawton replaces the hand with a cybernetic one.
Waller states that because her team brought in Rustam and his team, the new president has forgiven the Max Lord business (from the Justice League vs. Suicide Squad series), and placed Amanda back in charge of Task Force X.
