    Default Task Force Z by Matthew Rosenberg and Eddy Barrows

    On A-Day, hundreds of Gotham City’s most dangerous and deranged criminals were left dead after an attack on Arkham Asylum and now, they’re getting a second chance at life. A mysterious benefactor is bringing together a new Task Force and has recruited the only person who could lead them, someone who knows what it’s like to come back from a brutal death: Red Hood. Now Jason Todd has to unravel the mystery surrounding this team of the recently deceased while leading a line-up of some of Gotham City’s worst criminals who’ve ever lived: Bane. Man-Bat. The Arkham Knight. Sundowner. Mr. Bloom.

    This is spinning out of the August and September backups in Detective Comics:

    Backup: Countdown to Task Force Z: Part One! Deb Donovan is on the trail of some weird happenings in Gotham...missing bodies from the morgue...tales of shady criminal activity the likes of which Gotham has never seen...and the person trying to keep her quiet is...Batman?
    Backup: Countdown to Task Force Z: Part Two! When Red Hood shows up in your apartment, you know you've done something drastically wrong. Jason Todd teams up with Deb Donovan to uncover the mysterious disappearances in Gotham, and their search brings them to the missing body of Bane! Look alive because death seems to be knocking at the door...
    Backup: Wait, how did Red Hood end up in Deb Donovan's apartment? And what the hell gives him the right to eat all her frosted cereal? As Gotham's troubled son and the city's toughest reporter set out to uncover the mystery of the missing A-Day corpses, they run into more answers than they bargained for culminating in a deadly shoot out that renders Red Hood down for the count! Can Deb Donovan make it out alive to tell the tale of her harrowing adventure? And what will Red Hood's capture mean for the Bat-Family? It all leads to next month's terrifying new chapter in Gotham history: TASK FORCE Z!

    Jason right now: "They put me in another zombie book huh"
    "It's fun and it's cool, so that's all that matters. It's what comics are for, Duh."
    Words to live by.

    Well, I guess I'm glad Jason's leading another book even if this feels kind of random.

    Also he no longer looks like he's repping for Mortal Kombat, so that's something.

    I guess it's going to be pretty weird for Jason to work alongside Bane, even if he's zombie.
    Feels pretty random idea, but we'll see how it will work out.

    I hated his last costume design.
    If this book serves to get Jason back into something he actually looks good in, then huzzah.

    Now if we can just get rid of the fucking crowbar(s).

    Aw. But that is the All-Blades final form. Extra effective against clowns.
