Suicide Squad #27
Cover ADirect
Waller introduces the leaders of Task Force X to a secret operation known as the Janus Directive whereby either the Force of July or Project Atom is going to turn on them and try to seize power in the covert intelligence community. Waller tells her allies that she wants to strike first and take out the two teams. She sends the Suicide Squad after the Force of July and tells Bronze Tiger that she wants them dead. Ben is uncomfortable with this, especially as Oracle can't confirm that the Janus Directive even exists. The Squad battles the Force and wins.
