Batman and the Outsiders #6 Review

BATMAN AND THE OUTSIDERS #6
Written by Chuck Dixon
Art by Carlos Rodriguez and Bit

While I'm digging the cast of characters Dixon has assembled, I'm a bit disturbed by the choice in storyline. These are street level characters in a black ops-like team. They aren't the JLA and this very cosmic-like turn in the story has me a bit leary of continuing with the book. These guys shouldn't be stealing rockets and flying to secret space stations that are building giant rockets and so on. Also, Batman is almost non-existent in the book and I assume his name is on the title to sell more copies.

The entirety of this issue is devoted to Metamorpho informing the team he's alive and at a secret space base and the rest of the team mounting a grand theft rocket mission so they can make their way into space. This involves invading China and getting captured, ending the issue with Batgirl the only one still free.

Verdict - Check It
