Batman and the Outsiders return, but this time Black Lightning is taking control.

With a new team of outsiders, Batman trust Black Lightning to do his best. This time though, Black Lightning isn't working for Batman, but with Batman. He builds a team with various members including our boy Duke and Cass (She the besssssst) and together they must save a girl from being taken and used as a weapon. Will this Outsider group stay together or are they destined to fall apart like all the other versions?

This was actually pretty entertaining. The art is good enough where the fights look slick and fun. I really enjoyed the interactions with all the outsiders. Cass and Duke are a highlight and done well, plus this is basically a sequel to Hill's arc in Detective comics so works well. I also really enjoyed the ending as it's a solid cliffhanger. Didn't love the first issue as it felt too similar to how all these team books start but without anything new and Batman is hardly here, and I think they use his name to sell.

Overall though, this is a fun team book that's easy to read and looks good. I'm hoping it continues for a few arcs. A 3 out of 5.
