The Outsiders #34 - preview

[sherkahn]

Newsarama has the preview for Outsiders #34, as the team takes on the Olympian.

One behind the cut.

Normally I would leave Outsider stuff to those of the group who are more of a fan than I am, but I can't see this preview and not comment on how much it reminds me of classic King Kirby.



And with the Olympian around, I forsee that most of the stuff Gail Simone created will be there when she and the other Amazons return to the fold of the DC universe proper from their altered timeline.

p.s. Brion, you meat head, the guy just knocked-the-fuck-out someone on Kryptonian power levels. You don't just hit him once and expect him to fall.

i don't love the art, but YAY Achilles!

heh we should start a new Meme, Eradicator gets his glasses and Shield blown off.

[sir_razorback]

Eradicator's back? I'm confused,,, not like that takes alot of effort some days.

[zechs80]

It's not really the real Eradicator. It's a clone.

[pyrotwilight]

Which kinda sucks. I was hoping to see if it were the real Eradicator when he was brought aboard a while ago but he wasn't so I couldn't bring myself to care.

The original Eradicator is thus still presumably knocked out since Infinite Crisis...sigh.

[pyrotwilight]

Cool to see Achilles used but I have to admit I'm not enthused by him calling himself the Olympian, that's another guy, Achilles' codename is Warkiller, even if he does allude to that being more of a nickname.

Ah well I guess an appearance is an appearance.

[shadowpsykie]

seems AChilles is his real name, Olympian his "Superhero Name" and "Warkiller" is his title....

[icon_uk]

But Olympian is a member of DC's Global Guardians, he wears the Golden Fleece has the combined powers of all the Argonauts.

[jlbarnett]

and apparently an ex-of Helena Sandsmark. Which I assume is how Zeus first saw her.

"By your own omission"

Ummm shouldn't that be admission...

Written by the EiC no less!

Explains alot, don't it?

[stubbleupdate]

Doesn't it.

You're doing it for effect, right?

[daningram.insanejournal.com]

Sure=ee it does, if ya think abouts it, ya know?








...and yes ;)

[bradhanon]

Seriously. That's just embarrassing. Didn't there used to be requirements for having a job in editorial?

[sun_man]

this book needs to get cancelled badly

[aelflar]

Why is Superman wearing Booster`s goggles? xD

[tacobob]

Cause Booster Gold fails at birthday presents. "Er..Your birthday? Ooh! Got you some glasses! And a little round robot! Yay!"

[midnightvoyager]

On that note, thank you for breaking them, Achilles(?).

[big_daddy_d]

When the man says mind your tongue, you mind your tongue Eradicator.

[tsunamiwombat]

Thanks for setting off my ship-o-sense guy, now I can't help thinking the dirty thoughts.

What?

Achilles IS gay.

[tsunamiwombat]

Though he totally has better taste in men then Eradicator probably
