- Every Character Who Dies In The Suicide Squad's Opening Fight. The only way to prove that no one is safe is to kill off the majority of members of Task Force X in one fell swoop, which is precisely what James Gunn did with the first team that landed on the beach of Corto Maltese.
- The Thinker. Gaius Grieves aka the Thinker (Peter Capaldi) spent decades studying Starro for the Corto Maltese and U.S. government, which of course angered the alien once it was set free by Task Force X. When Rick Flag and Ratcatcher (Daniela Melchior) tried escaping the building's destruction with the disk drive containing information on the Starro Project, Starro grabbed ahold of the Thinker and ripped him apart.
- Rick Flag. Rick Flag's death is easily one of The Suicide Squad's saddest. Unlike everyone else on the team, he wasn't a villain; Rick Flag treated his squadmates like friends and family.
- Polka-Dot Man. One of the standout characters from The Suicide Squad is Polka-Dot Man (David Dastmalchian). Not only was his backstory intriguing, but his persona and overall strangeness made him a unique addition to Task Force X. Unfortunately, he was the last person to be killed from the main group during the battle with Starro.

Standing tall alongside the Squad in their heroic last stand against Starro the Conqueror, the mommy issues-laden Abner Krill (played by David Dastmalchian) proudly declares himself a superhero -- and is then quickly squashed by one of Starro’s massive prehensile extremities. Abner’s journey from outcast to antihero, and his finding people to final...
Early on in the film, Nathan Fillion’s T.D.K., aka The Detachable Kid, is called into action during Task Force X’s beachhead assault on Corto Maltese. As his name implies, The Detachable Kid’s powers are … strange and silly. He detaches his arms, which hover across the beach to slap around the rebel gunmen. Needless to say, slaps prove ineffective ...
Task Force X already includes a member named Weasel but a case could be made that Pete Davidson’s Blackguard turned out to be the biggest weasel of them all. After selling out the team’s position to the Corto Maltese, Blackguard approaches the rebel gunmen on the beach declaring he’s the one they made the deal with. Instead of making it to safety, ...
He survived the first film and a run-in with the Flash but Jai Courtney’s Aussie supervillain doesn’t make it out of Corto Maltese alive. During the opening beachfront assault, Boomer gets toasted in the explosion of a crashing helicopter, his boomerang-clutching severed arm left standing, almost defiantly, in the aftermath.
It took the combined efforts of a javelin-wielding Harley Quinn, Bloodsport, Polka-Dot Man and King Shark to finally bring down the massive cosmic kaiju Starroas it laid waste to Corto Maltese and threatened to escape the island. Starro’s death is not without a degree of sympathy, though, as the creature bemoans that it was happy out among the star...
Taika Waititi played the small but pivotal role of the father of Daniela Melchior’s Ratcatcher II. She recalls how her father taught her the value of these overlooked animals, deemed vermin and outcasts by most of society. Ratcatcher I, though, was a drug addict and he died in the streets of Portugal of an overdose, leaving his daughter alone, save...
The Suicide Squad opens by following Michael Rooker’s long-haired supervillain from recruitment to deployment on Corto Maltese. But after seeing how outmatched his team is, Savant panics and flees from the beach and back into the ocean. Despite repeated warnings from Amanda Waller to return to the fight, Savant keeps wading out into the water — at ...
The desk jockeys at Belle Reve wondered aloud whether Mongal (played by Mayling Ng) was an animal or an alien. They never get their answer because she only lasted mere moments in the film, perishing in the early beach battle. Mongal grabs onto the landing skids of a military helicopter, causing it to crash and burn, killing her and more in the proc...
After decades of experimenting on Starro the Conqueror, the giant cosmic kaiju breaks free from his confinement in the Jotunheim lab and gets his revenge on his longtime tormenter, Peter Capaldi’s Thinker, by tearing him to bloody, chunky pieces.
Task Force X’s field commander, once again played by the first film’s Joel Kinnaman, is slain by Peacemaker (John Cena) during a brawl in Jotunheim. Flag wanted to expose the nefarious, US government-backed goings-on at Jotunheim, while Peacemaker vowed to adhere to Amanda Waller’s instructions to keep the matter secret. A fight ensues between the ...
