@TheOptimist:
Ah, so unless she could find a way to control them she'd view the Outlaws as a threat or a nuisance then, right? I've been wondering if Waller would be the sort of person who could "befriend" the Outlaws by offering them financial backing in exchange for the odd favor here and there (assassinating supervillains and what not, etc), I mean, Jason, Roy, & Kori gotta pay for their living expenses and mission equipment/weaponry somehow right?
Alternatively, if thats not the sort of thing Waller or the Outlaws would agree to, I also couldn't help but think Waller would make a good recurring adversary for them, i.e. she wants to capture the three of them for use in her Suicide Squad & as time goes by capturing them becomes personal for her (like when she tried to force the Secret Six back under her thumb with her latest Suicide Squad). Might make for a cool crossover event, Outlaws vs the Suicide Squad. I mean, with their rotating roster & high mortality rate, the Outlaws would never be able to predict who Waller would send after them next, & the Outlaws would make a fitting challenge for the villains on the Squad (not like Redhood & company would have any qualms about killing govt controlled super baddies afterall lol). Plus, since Jason & his team are basically filling the same niche in the DC universe as Marvel's Punisher, it probably means The Outlaws are gonna kill most of their adversaries rather than build up a Rogues Gallery like other DC heroes, so a group like the Suicide Squad could fill the role of a traditional "arch-nemesis."
