I just read the first few issues and I really liked it. The story, the art and the characters all work well for me.
I think crushing the readers' expectations as to what the book really is though is a very tricky business. You call it Outsiders and ostensibly present it as a Bat-book with a dash of Planetary, when it is in fact a direct Planetary sequel which just happens to star a few Bat-characters... I can see why some would be turned off. But the execution won me over and I'll be enjoying the rest of it, however long it lasts.
