Here is the Team-Up many have waited for!
The issue starts with a flashback about Jason's training, about not panicking and always ready to adapt to the situation. Then, we are introduced to the furry guys who got Jason out.
They said they were only sent to rescue him, but they won't tell him anything else. So, Jason starts fighting them. It doesn't take long until the Dynamic Duo arrives.
Dick, Damian and Jason manage to stand against them, and finally Jason is about to kill one of the guys from the group, until they give him a phone call from their leader. Jason doesn't really care that much until they mention him they have someone.
So they decide to work together...
Yay! No more Dildo Head!

Still, this Greg Tocchini? Someone to look out for.

Date: 2011-06-09 12:41 pm (UTC)My nit-picks with this issue were the art, the story felt too short and because of that, the fight scene felt too long. It gave some great insight to Jason and was nice to see, but it needed more.
This story definitely feels like set-up for the ongoing; a way to move Jason from costumes that seems more natural and to move him more towards a saner, more anti-heroic state.

I'm looking forward to seeing him interact with other people that have nothing to do with his quest for vengeance or trying to kill his way through the Gotham City Yellow Pages of Crime."
--
"So yeah, there are dark elements to the story, but if Jason and Roy and Kori aren't moving ahead, aren't slogging through the crappy hands they've been dealt, aren't trying to forge a future for themselves, then that is what I would consider "a dark book." But that's not what's happening here."
--
"It is a book about three people and how their rough edges grind up against each other and invariably become better people for the experience."
--
'I am more interest in who Jason has become than who he was. I think there is only one reference to Batman or Gotham City in issue #1 and none at all in issue #2. Could you imagine if Superman referenced Jor El and Smallville every issue... or Batman said "Eat, Alfred? How can I eat when my parents were murdered in front of my eyes twenty years ago?!"'
--
" Too often, today it feels like, if you pick up an issue of Moon Bat 1, you're actually picking up the 133rd issue of Moon Bat's 30-year publishing history of canceled series and team book appearance and sporadic relaunches over the years—- and the first issue feels like the writer has ushered you to your seat during the third reel of the movie.
As a fan, I find it really off-putting. So my hope is that with Red Hood and the Outlaws number one, people will feel like they are being brought into the first issue of new series and be excited to stay around until issue #100."

Also, Jason is starting to look like the way he will appears on Roy and his outlaws on-going comic for September.
