OUTSIDERS by Collin Kelly & Jackson Lanzing in November

Ok, I don't know those characters, maybe I'll look it up later, thanks.



So...some elseworlds story that ended, I take it?

Gotham City Garage is a Mad Max style AU

It did end a while ago yeah, first started publishing in 2017.

Its most particular detail is the fact Batman is an outright villain there. The main antagonist is Lex Luthor the dictator leader of the post-apocalypse city and Batman his main enforcer who is an unrepentant fascist who doesn't get redeemed.

It had a sweet Green Arrow/Black Canary issue.

It was inspired by a DC collectibles statue line, set in a post-apocalyptic world. Done by the same creative team in 2017.

Ah, a gimmick then. I guess it was a nice Easter Egg for any fans of that series that also happens to read Outsiders.

#7 Cover revealed:



And onto #9:

TANGLED IN A TALE OF TWO CITIES! THE LOST CITY OF CANON!

The Outsiders’ journey through—and outside of—the multiverse continues! Deep beneath reality, two cities follow diametrically opposed philosophies. One is built from legacy, continuity, and order, and the other is born of innovation, reinvention, and chaos. Between the delicate balance of their narratives sits our story—as well as the key to changing it. To do so could jeopardize the DC Universe as we know it… so who is plotting to do exactly that?

Except for the no-wig, which may be an editorial thing, Steve Beach does a great Batwoman.

The wig removal was indeed most likely editorial - there was a lot of criticism of the wig in live-action from what I recall, and the feedback was likely heard. I don't mind the lack of wig, IMHO it makes more sense from a consistency stand-point - since no one else in the Bat-Family bothers with one and has managed to keep their secert identity intact.

I still find it weird seeing her with short hair in-suit.

I guess at least she doesn't have a buzz-cut anymore.

Yeah, I hated the buzz-cut too. It looked awful IMHO. But I prefer when she's a bit more feminine when out-of-costume, like how she was prior to the Tynion 'Tec run. After that she started to get a bit more Tomboyish, which is ok, but I just prefer her prior depictions when it comes to fashion sense.

Same here! I go for Rucka/JH Williams for Kate's style and personality a lot.

It feels wrong seeing actual Planetary characters in this book.

As spoilers:

much as I am down for a reminder that Barry should be sent back to the grave with as little dignity as possible, the version of Wildstorm where planetary took place was destroyed by Captain Atom half a decade before Flashpoint, so why is this one being blamed on Flash instead?
