This is one of the better Convergence two parters, it's flashy enough or perhaps solid enough art-wise to set it apart from some of the more slapdash issues. Convergence Batman And The Outsiders #2 is nothing stellar but it's also a lot better and it's cool to see the Outsiders in any capacity after Batman Incorporated. Read Full Review

Considering the limitations this issue is working within, it pulls off an entertaining, engaging story with a great economy of space. The ending is a giant cliffhanger, which is both a good thing and a bad, but even with the cliffhanger, it actually feels satisfying and complete. Theres not a lot of character or story, but the action and dialog are both strong enough to make this an easy recommendation, particularly to fans of this permutation of Batman and the Outsiders. Even with little prior knowledge, theres really only one large, OMAC-shaped hole in the basic understanding of the issue, so its still an easy recommendation. Read Full Review

Overall this was a pretty decent issue, it showed off some characters that I am now a little more interested in…and I would be curious to know if their portrayals were accurate. Although I am not too familiar with the original Batman and the Outsiders run, this story has piqued an interest and I may be going back to see what this team accomplished during its run. This was definitely one of the better tie-ins that I have read and would definitely recommend to any Batman fan. Read Full Review

A well-drawn issue, with nice character work, that ends abruptly (but at least it gets an ending.) Read Full Review

No, this isnt a particularly bad issue, it just pales in comparison to the potential demonstrated in the first half of this particular tie-in. This is definitely one of those stories that suffered not for the characters, plot, writer or artists, but rather for the amount of time it had to be told (or lack thereof). Its not a complete loss though, if Marc Andreyko accomplished anything with this story it was making me interested in going back and reading older Batman and the Outsiders stories to find out more about the characters.

This issue was a letdown, but not because of anything Marc Andreyko did.  The restraints of the Convergence Event was to blame for what Andreyko didn't and couldn't do.  It's a testament to his storytelling that I wanted so much more and hope that someday we will get it.  Carlos D'Ando's art was great again, but in the end, this issue felt like another Convergence missed opportunity.
