Belle Reve Federal Penitentiary is a prison for powerful villains located in the state of Louisiana in the United States of America.
Imprisonment of Lex Luthor
After the events of the battle with Doomsday, a SWAT team stormed the Fortress of Solitude, and subsequently apprehend and imprison Lex Luthor into Belle Reve. Here Lex is shaven bald and given his own cell. A number of days later, a guard, accompanied by the warden, orders Lex Luthor to turn around so that he can come in and restrain Lex, as the warden needed to speak to the prisoner. Instead, the lights go out. Batmanappears behind Luthor, furiously telling the latter that whatever he does and wherever he goes, Lex will be watched. Luthor, however, sneers at the threat, and makes a subtle comment to Batman that indicates his knowledge of the Dark Knight's alter-ego.
Formation of Task Force X
Not long after the death of Superman, Amanda Waller of ARGUS planned to assemble Task Force X, composed of various incarcerated criminals and Metahumans, to serve as her expendable soldiers with exceptional powers, abilities, and skills to defend the world against superhuman threats. Her roster would include the lethal marksman Deadshot, rope assassin Slipknot, boomerang expert Captain Boomerang, monstrous Killer Croc, pyrokinetic El Diablo, and the criminal psychopath Harley Quinn, all of whom were imprisoned at Belle Reve. Waller travelled to Belle Reve with Colonel Rick Flag to inspect her candidates, including witnessing Deadshot's exceptional marksmanship at the Belle Reve shooting range.
