Although this bit is never record and is only narrated in captions come from the radio , it ’s a very significant moment for the Flashpoint Universe . It expose that not only does the Suicide Squad exist in the Flashpoint , but that it is much , much larger . Because of the chaos that often erupts in the Flashpoint Universe compared to the primary DC Universe , it ’s no surprisal thatAmanda Waller has been able to accumulateas much power as she has . Given how much Waller utilise the Suicide Squad for her own oddment in the master DC Universe , readers can only wonder what she would be able-bodied to do with an intact USA at her disposal .

Amanda Waller is known for putting volatile devices in the villains ' heads that will explode if they do n’t comply . In the Flashpoint Universe , she uses Son of Saturn to psychically control the villains ' minds .
