The cover looks very "staged," particularly Nightwing's pose.

Certainly not one of my favorite group splash covers. Seems a little unfinished.

That Titans/Outsiders cover....I don't get it....two superhero teams on the same cover....but they're not fighting each other?? Must be one of those chronicler's errors ;P

There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met.

They're totally fighting!
Terra obviously made all those earth-monsters!
And see how Black Lightning is about to jam a ligntning bolt right into Raven's face? She's all like 'Nooooo...'
And Katana just totally made snake-sushi out of Garfield, check out that weapon arc!

They fought in the issue ... The New Teen Titans half of the cross over IIRC ... until Terra recognized her brother ... in the same costume no less ... and then had some splaining to do since she told Gar she made her costume herself.
I find this cover especially delicious! mmmmm

The only Batman I ever really enjoyed (besides the Sixties "mod" version, of course) was the one in the Outsiders book. So glad Katanna is still around with the Birds. She was fab, too.

The scene in an issue of Batman & the Outsiders where she comforts Halo with a lullaby is one of the most beautiful and moving things I've ever seen in a comic book.

I couldn't come up with anywhere else to post this, so....
I just re-read New Teen Titans #7 (the pre-Baxter series that went to being DC's #1 book). It took me the better part of a half hour to read. Why? Because it had sooo much stuff packed into a single issue. We had the re-forming of the Fearsome Five, the rescue of Psion from limbo, the taking (by the Five) of Titans Tower, the capture of the mysterious secret resident of the tower by the Five, the Titans (remember them) returning from Azerath and forgiving Raven for past deceptions, offering her a home in the process, Cyborg expressing reservations about same, the Titans returning to the tower to find it breached, a big battle with the Five, Cyborg learning that the secret resident/designer of the tower was his dad and that his dad was dying, Cyborg and his dad spending the last three months of dad's life together and finally developing a relationship, almost too late.
These days that one story would be spread out over a year's worth of books, at least. And they wonder why sales are down.
