| − | '''Waylon Jones''' is a [[metahuman]] skilled crocodile wrestler, born with a genetic mutation which gave him reptilian skin, leading to him being nicknamed '''Killer Croc'''. He eventually turned to crime, and was chased out of [[Gotham City]] by [[Batman]], only to be captured and recruited into [[Amanda Waller]]'s [[Task Force X|Suicide Squad]]. He would greatly contribute to the defeat of the [[Enchantress]] and [[Incubus]] mystical duo, and get his prison sentence shortened as a result. |

| − | Waylon Jones was born on June 3, 1968, in Tampa, Florida, with a rare skin disorder that made him look like a crocodile. His mother died of childbirth, and because his father left him to be raised by his aunt, he suffered emotional abuse since her persistent drinking prevented him from growing up in an ideal household. As a teenager, Waylon had no friends for the kids at school ridiculed him. He attempted to kill one of them, causing him to spend the majority of his youth in reform school and juvenile hall. A short time later, the deformed boy was arrested for robbery and sent to prison for three years. There, he was able to commit the murder of a newcoming prisoner who made a joke about his face. Luckily for Waylon, he was spared the death penalty and spent a more lengthened jail term. |

| − | Jones was released eighteen years later after reaching adulthood, and joined a traveling carnival where became an experienced crocodile wrestler known for his cannibalistic tendencies, earning himself the name "Killer Croc". By that time, his body changed to make increasingly animal-like, as well as developing a highly durable hide and regenerative powers. Realizing that there was more money to be made through crime, Croc soon decided to find himself a home in [[Gotham City]], New Jersey. Upon arrival, he served as an enforcer for the mob, but took it upon himself to target other criminals and become the city's most powerful figure. This prompted him to come into conflict with the vigilante [[Batman]], who defeated and chased him out of Gotham. Croc tried searching for sanctuary elsewhere, but was eventually captured by an [[ARGUS]] SWAT team in his sewer hideout and sentenced to life imprisonment at [[Belle Reve]], where was treated like an animal and kept locked in an underground cage at his request. There, the guards fed him raw animal meat, but he would often attack them until he was tazed or tranquilized if they were unfortunate to enter his cage. |

| − | ===Visit by Rick Flag=== |
||
| − | {{Quote|Ain't you scared?|Killer Croc to Rick Flag|Suicide Squad}} |
||
| − | Months after Croc was apprehended, [[Amanda Waller]] gathers skilled individuals and [[Meta Human|metahumans]] for Project [[Task Force X]]. Upon their visit to [[Belle Reve]] to examine the future team, she has [[Rick Flag]] visit Croc outside his cell while the monster is doing push ups. Croc senses his presence and slowly approaches Flag, asking why he isn't scared of him. Flag avoids answering the question and asks Croc why he is imprisoned in an underground cage. Croc tells Flag that it was because he asked to be, then quickly ends the conversation. |
||

| − | ===A purpose in life=== |
||
| − | He is later forced into the Task Force X, to take care of the situation in Midway City. He plays the part of brute force in the team, rarely ever speaking. When the group decided to have drinks, he took offense to Harley calling him ugly both in appearance and personality; Croc told her that his personality was different. |
||
| − | |||
| − | When it came time for the final battle, Croc helped fight off monsters underwater, allowing Flag's men to detonate a bomb that killed [[Incubus]] and [[El Diablo]], but were all killed by either the monsters or the bomb. Once Enchantress was killed, Croc planned to head back to the Gotham sewers. However, Waller was revealed to be alive and ready to blow their heads off. When she asked if anyone else in the squad would like a perk back at prison, Croc asked for the BET channel. |

| − | He is later seen lounging on a coach in his cell, enjoying a hamburger and music on his new TV. |

||
| − | |||
| − | Waylon Jones grew up with a very dysfunctional childhood due to his appearence, thus people treated him horribly. |
||
| − | |||
| − | His years of abuse from his alcoholic aunt had turned him into a rather cold individual and the taunting of children and others only made it worse. This caused Waylon to downright hate humanity for treating him so horribly thus gained a horribly negative outlook on life. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Croc is incredibly hostile and dangerous to the point where it is a mere risk going near him. He acts in an animalistic nature and shown to often distrust others due to his hatred of humanity. Though he is capable of feeling joy, as shown when he is watching television in his cell and enjoying music. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Overall, Killer Croc is a cold blooded cannibalistic murderer who will not hesitate to rip apart or devour those he dislikes or simply to satisfy his hunger. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Powers and Abilities== |
||
| − | {{quote|Evolution took a step backwards with this one.|[[Amanda Waller]]|Suicide Squad}} |
||
| − | <tabber>Powers= |
||
| − | *'''Crocodilian Physiology:''' Killer Croc has skin comparable to that of a reptile. His durable skin and inhumanly large musculature, combined with his reptilian genetics and traits gave him several abilities. |
||
| − | **'''Super Strength:''' Killer Croc has a degree of superhuman strength, due to him being inhumanly bulky and muscular. This easily makes him the physically strongest member of the [[Task Force X|Suicide Squad]]. Hence, he was able to become an experienced crocodile wrestler, to easily beat many of [[Enchantress]]' monstrous [[Eyes of the Adversary]] troops to death with his bare hands, to send the exceptionally fit [[Captain Boomerang]] flying several feet away from him with a mere swing of his arm, to easily hurl [[Rick Flag]]'s heavy bomb into the mystical superweapon, and to temporarily rival the physical strength of Enchantress herself, hurling her away from his Squad teammates. |
||
| − | **'''Super Durability:''' Killer Croc's rough scaly skin is highly durable, to a much higher degree than that of a normal [[human]], with his skin acting as natural body armor. However, multiple tasers used simultaneously are able to knock Killer Croc out, allowing an [[ARGUS]] SWAT team to bring him down at last. |
||
| − | **'''Super Senses:''' Killer Croc's reptilian physiology grants him acute senses, especially his sense of smell and hearing. He also displayed shining eyes while in his prison cell, similar to [[Aquaman]]'s, indicating that he can see in locations with very low levels of light. |
||
| − | |-| |
||
| − | Abilities= |
||
| − | *'''Skilled Combatant:''' Killer Croc, while not a skilled martial artist, is a very effective physical combatant due to his superhuman strength, thus managing to become an experienced crocodile wrestler, to defeat and beat many of [[Enchantress]]' monstrous [[Eyes of the Adversary]] troops to death with his bare hands, and managing to hurl Enchantress herself away from his teammates, though she was notably caught off-guard. |
||
| − | *'''Expert Swimmer:''' Killer Croc, due to having lead a reptilian life for years (notably living in [[Gotham City]]'s sewers for a time), is a highly skilled swimmer and can stay under water for vast periods of time, thus swiftly helping [[Rick Flag]]'s Navy SEAL team plant a bomb under [[Incubus]]. |
||
| − | |-| |
||
| − | Weaknesses= |
||
| − | *'''Limited Intellect:''' Killer Croc's main weakness is his relatively low intellect (evidenced by his rather limited vocabulary), which induces him to typically resort to brute force to solve most of his problems, allowing the weaker [[Batman]] to outmaneuver him in combat and outsmart him with relative ease, ultimately chasing him out of [[Gotham City]]. |
||
| − | *'''Electricity''': Killer Croc's other big weakness is electricity, since despite his highly durable reptilian skin, he was still brought down by [[ARGUS]]' SWAT team when they used several tasers against him simultaneously. |
||
| − | *'''Nano-Bomb''': Killer Croc, like the other members of the [[Task Force X|Suicide Squad]], was implanted with a [[Van Criss Laboratories]] nano-bomb, despite his highly durable skin. As a result, he dares not disobey [[Amanda Waller]], unwilling to have the implanted nano-bomb kill him by exploding his head. |

||
| − | *Killer Croc is the only member of Task Force X that was never in the team in the comics. |
||
| − | *This version of Killer Croc is inspired by the physics of his first appearances in the comics. |
||
| − | *Originally, King Shark was to appear as a member of Task Force X, but David Ayer did not feel comfortable adding a fully CG character in the Squad, so Killer Croc replaced King Shark. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Trivia== |
||
| − | *According to his criminal record, Killer Croc's skin condition requires a humid environment. This would explain the reason behind Croc's cell having a pool of water. |
||
| − | *He laughs when Boomerang asks if Diablo's tatoos come off, likely happy someone else's appearance being jeered at. |
||
| − | *Croc admires Waller's ruthlessness. |
