What Does The Ending Of Suicide Squad Really Mean?

7. So, Is Enchantress For Real Gone?

Here's the big question for comic book fans: is all of Enchantress actually gone?

She's effectively killed off by a simple bomb blast, like her brother, which doesn't at all seem fitting since her powers include the ability to manipulate all non-organic matter and a healing factor. It simply wouldn't be enough to kill her, in other words.

So what if the blast simply unloosened her connection to June Moone, and that's how she inconceivably managed to survive?

In the comics, June Moone is possessed by Enchantress, but eventually manages to cast of the evil element of the being and retain her powers, so she effectively becomes a good witch. Could this be the plan for her for the seemingly already green-lit sequel? To have her still employed as a meta-human part of the team? Or am I simply writing a script for them to explain a shoddy, unsatisfying death scene?
