Joseph Waller was the husband of Amanda Waller.

Joseph and Amanda were married when Joseph was 20 and Amanda was 18 and lived in the Cabrini-Green public housing in Chicago. The couple had five children: Joseph Jr., Damita, Martin, Jesse and Coretta. Joseph Jr. was killed by two thugs trying to rob him. Six months later, Damita was raped and murdered by a criminal known as Candyman. Joseph tracked Candyman down and both were killed in the gunfight. Joseph's widow Amanda vowed that she would get the rest of her children out Cabrini-Green and was able to put her three youngest children and herself through college. Eventually, Amanda would go on to create the Suicide Squad.
