    A solid beginning to a great story

    My review of red hood and the outlaws (issue 1):

    Even though I like Grayson a lot, red hood is my favorite robin and its good to see him have his own team. Kenneth Rocafort’s art looks fantastic, even though I'm not a fan of Jason's mouth...on his mask. Scott Lobdell is a talented writer and you can see that here. Arsenal adds a nice comedic touch to the comic, kind of weird being that at the start of the issue he was about to get executed. And then there is starfire...I was originally disgusted at how they changed starfire to forget who Grayson was, not to mention the fact she bangs with Roy because they were, well, bored. BUT, after reading issue six (about how Jason and Kori met) I soon realized that Kori has not completely forgot her days with Richard. She even says, “...I have memories of him. We spent day and night together when I first arrived on this planet” followed with “his name escaped me, I will remember him when I see him again” so if your a fan of starfire and pick up this comic, dont get too angry. This may just be issue #1 and I can certainly see why people don't like it, but if you think you can give the rest of the series a chance, do so. You will be quite surprised.

I was giddy for about fifteen minutes before it really sunk in what a low blow this was to the portrayal of women in comics. There's nothing wrong with a woman who's comfortable with her sexuality. There's nothing wrong with a wom...

      Red Hood is busy putting together his team of mercs when his complicated past inserts itself into his present.The GoodI really liked the art in this book and many of the design changes didn't bother me at all.There was a lot of action in this issue and that looks to be the status quo from here on out.There was some genuinely humorous banter between Jason and Roy.This book clears up some of the things about Titans continuity I was wondering about.The BadDon't like Jason's new mask...seriously hel...
