    Default "Batman and the Outsiders" is pushed back

    Apparently "Batman and the Outsiders" was pushed back several month.

    Oh joy. One of the few series I've been looking forward to was pushed back.

    What is happening in DC lately? Hmmm... So many sudden changes in books. Or it's just my impression and this is completely normal?

    Maybe one of the members winds up being a late death in Heroes in Crisis?

    The way things are going? Don't even joke about that.

    Hey, I've been avoiding anything Tom King writes, especially DC in Crisis.

    And Dick getting shot in the head to become "Ric"? Donna becoming an alcoholic? Lois doing a full 180 that in almost any other scenario would spell that Superman's marriage is about to dissolve? Lois, who had been a momma bear in regards to Jon, suddenly leaving him alone with a more than suspicious grandfather?

    Its more than just Heroes in Crisis that's been irritating lately.

    Didn't the team in Tec have Batgirl instead of Signal? Could that have something to do with it?

    I remember the team doesn't have Signal in Tec, because Duke was hurt. Also, Batgirl leaves the group at the end of this (she had some conflicts with Batman).

    So, I do not think this is related. The plan must always have been the group that Outsiders currently have.

    Batgirl?
    Barbara Gordon?!?

    I thought it was "former-(but-in-current-continuity)-Batgirl" Stephanie Brown, who's only been Spoiler since the start of the New52 main continuity?

    What are you talking about?

    Batgirl (Barbara Gordon) was working with Black Lightning and Orphan on Tec (when Duke was injured).

    That's probably the doubt of Dignified.


    PS: It's still charming that you take every oportunity to mention that Stephanie wasn't Batgirl on current continuity, but it would be better if it is related to the topic.

    Duke got injured/fridge out the gate and Barbara was helping out; I think they just needed someone to explain Batman to Black Lightning. The actual team didn't form until the end of the arc when Katana comes into the fold and by then Barbara dipped and they let Duke back in the field.
    THE SIGNAL (Duke Thomas) is DC's secret shonen protagonist so I made him a fandom wiki

    also, check out "The Signal Tape" a Duke Thomas fan project.

    currently following:
    • DC: Red Hood: The Hill
    • Marvel: TBD
    • Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force

    Unfortunate, Bryan Hill tweeted about wanting to make sure they launch the book right, because they only get one chance. So if the delay is to make sure the the story is better, I don't mind.

    So in other words-it will never come out because what is the best time??

    You don't delay a book when everyone else is putting out better material that could take potential readers away. Or when your competition is about to brow beat everyone with Wolverine and X-Men stuff for the next 6 months.

    One chance??? If they have that low of an opinion of the team-how about another arc in Detective? Or a mini? So a team with Batman, BL who has a SHOW & Katanna, DC's top selling at one time female of color (Cass) and DC's top selling male of color (Duke)-only gets one shot? That is not a team of chumps.

    I liked the series when it came out, way back when. Can anyone give me a flavor of what it's like now?
