The Institute was run by Simon LaGrieve, who had previously been the head of the psychological staff for the Suicide Squad (the guy who picked which villains were reasonable choices to include on Squad missions. Waller was actually recovering from an assassination attempt at the time, so she was holed up at the Institute for Metahuman Studies, which was a concept that Ostrander had introduced in his Firestorm run. RELATED: How Wolverine Made Black Widow the Guardian of an Infinity Stone However, if you're doing a tie-in to a major crossover, you sort of want to appeal to the general audience, which means costumes, and so Ostrander and Yale cleverly get the costumes back for this bigger crossover event by having Black Adam specifically ask for them as part of a sort of mystical totem-like deal. Heck, Deadshot flat out LOST his costume, so Floyd Lawton was just wearing normal clothes. At this point, the Squad dropped the costume aspect of the series, as it was now more of a black ops operation. She was allowed to set the Suicide Squad up as a freelance operation that just did work for the government on its own. She was sprung by the government, working along with Batman. Amanda Waller then murdered the villains who tried to take the Squad down and she went to prison for the killings. As I noted in a recent feature, the Squad was ruined as a government operation after some villains went public with the government's connection to the team. This event came at a curious moment in the history of the Suicide Squad.
