Quick recap

Amanda Waller sends Task Force X to Corto Maltese, an island whose new military government controls Jotunheim, a Nazi-era lab where Project Starfish holds Starro. Almost the whole first team dies on the beach. Rick Flag and Harley Quinn survive. The second team, with Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Ratcatcher 2, King Shark and Polka-Dot Man, links up with Flag, storms the tower and learns the United States funded the experiments. Flag wants to expose everything, and Peacemaker kills him on Waller's orders. Starro breaks loose and attacks the city until Ratcatcher 2 and her rats bring him down, with Harley landing the final blow. Bloodsport shoots Peacemaker. The survivors save the island and blackmail Waller with the project's evidence to win their freedom.
