10 Worst Things The Suicide Squad Has Ever Done

10. Rick Flag Gets The Team Killed

The cleanest guy on the team, as well as its leader, Rick Flag is the quintessential honest soldier: a man devoted to defending his country no matter the cost. His heroics eventually land him the duty of leading this dangerous band of villains-turned-soldiers. However, Mr. Flag isn’t always the straight-up, honest patriot he is made out to be.

During the Doom Patrol and Suicide Squad #1, a crossover storyline that also featured the Doom Patrol, Flag leads his forces on a daring rescue operation in Nicaragua. The goal was to rescue Hawk, who had been captured by bad guys. The mission goes terribly. Everything that could have gone wrong, does end up going wrong.

In the end, the entire team gets killed, and the main reason for the disaster was Rick’s inept decisions as leader.

Actually that’s not entirely correct - there was one survivor: The brave, patriotic leader. He got everyone killed, other than himself.
