It's a blessing that Lobdell is very consistent at handing in scripts. I don't recall having any delays from him, since RH/A. Don't know about RHATO vol 1 because I wasn't following monthly at the time.
Ah cool, thanks guys
I've only recently gotten into the habit of purchasing comics on a consistent basis, so I wasn't quite sure what the hold up was. My fear was less about sinister things going on at dc but more wondering (fearing) if it was trouble or delays caused within the team. Super glad to hear its a normality.
Speaking of rhato does anyone think this 'date' is real? Or do you think its just a cover up for Artemis and Jason, that you know, becomes fun and kooky anyway? There hasn't been much lead up to it, so (assuming its fake) I wonder if the 'date night' aspect will either not be a major part of the book anyway and just serve as a minor stepping stone for the real plot OR if Lobdell will milk the 'fake dating' trope for its worth. :P
Just dug the Feb solicitation for reference:
RED HOOD AND THE OUTLAWS #19
Written by SCOTT LOBDELL
Art by MARCIO TAKARA
Cover by MIKE McKONE
Variant cover by GUILLEM MARCH
“Date Night”! By day, Artemis and Red Hood are teammates, but tonight they’re going out on their first date. Tonight they’re leaving Crime Alley behind and sampling the finer things Gotham City has to offer, including a surprise visit to the Batcave! With his friends gone for the night, how will Bizarro spend his free time? And what’s the deal with Artemis’ warning from last issue? Answers will definitely be revealed.
To me it doesn't matter if it's fake or not. I just prefer to see some action/drama, considering this issue will have a 'surprise visit to the Batcave'. I would be bored if they just sit in a bar again, drinking and talking about Artemis' ex (Creeper this time).
From the one panel that we've been privy to, Artemis dragging Jason along, both of them waving, presumably to Bizarro with smiles that usually none of them would wear, I assume this date would be a cover.
As for how long it will last, I honestly hope it is a one time thing. Mainly because I look forward to some conflict between the Outlaws, as Lobdell said, it's gonna get worse before it gets better. And also to fit with the darker tone that he's going for. I don't see many benefits in dragging out this tired trope.
Loedbell may say what he says but he will keep teasing with the push pull. That`s what keeps readers guessing and at this point you don`t need to fully deal with it.

If the Titans do end breaking up (that I seriously doubt it will happen because comic books) this would be a great chance to get Jason and Roy back together.
Look I just loved their friendship. OK?
They`ll just keep pushing the Titans up, otherwise it`s alot of characters left with no book.
Count me in as someone who would rather Roy was in this book but since my main criticism was that "Titans" has been a dud and he hasn`t done zit, I might as well see how the story that revolves mostly on him will play out first.
I wonder if Jason gets reunited with Roy (and Kory) like the rumor said, it would be during the Titan/TT shakeup.
