Red Hood, Artemis, and Bizarro have their hands full-and until now they thought the biggest problem they had to face was the uprising of the Untitled during the political protests in Qurac! They're about to learn this ancient race might very well be the lesser of two evils when the Outlaws square off against one of the oldest and most dangerous threats in all the DC Universe! (We're not kidding-we know better than to say his name out loud! Yeah, he's that scary!) Meanwhile, Artemis has united with Mistress-but at what price? Bizarro meets... his mother? And Jason is forced to choose between Essence and Isabel if he's going to defeat the Un more
The issue ends with Jason and Biz making a run at the front door while everyone else tries to keep Trigon busy so Jason can do what he does best: Pull victory out of his arse. Will he be able too? I don't know but I know that if they survive this Essence is going to have a lot of explaining to do and it's not going to be pretty. Read Full Review
I love this title. It is the definition of an underdog comic featuring some underdog characters. Lobdell makes the whole thing work wonderfully and I just love the direction he has taken with this book. I look forward to more! Read Full Review
While the interactions between our heroes are nice in this issue, the turn that the story has taken feels out of nowhere and makes the motivations of some of the characters involved feel beyond forced to get them here. Yeah, the story has become "bigger" because of the reveals here, but everything leading up to it just feels like nothing was defined and just thrown at the wall until the revelation here. The art is decent, but I seriously need more out of this title that has been struggling in my mind for a long time. Read Full Review
Although this issue didnt really satisfy me, Im still very much interested in seeing what Lobdell has imagined for the next few issues and how the story will end! Read Full Review
This issue really just didn't do it for me. While it attempted to move the narrative forward, I think that overall it was too busy and convoluted. The dissemination of key information associated with the plot was messy and at some points just straight up random. I should be excited for the team to dive into a fight with Trigon, but instead I just want to move onto other things. Read Full Review
The core dynamic between Red Hood, Bizarro, and Artemis definitely makes this issue and series oddly charming, but it's packaged in a way that feels cluttered and almost outdated. Read Full Review
Definitely turning into a better direction. I was a huge fan of Lobdell's work in the first half of this second volume of RHATO, but after Artemis and Bizarro left, it started b-lining to another story that didn't retain much attraction, although had some good ideas. This comic run as of recent felt lost, wandering around until it could find its stride. And this issue is giving those holding out a glimpse of that.
The main squad is back in action, Artemis, Bizarro and Jason are in sync with each other, complementing the issues of character development between the three. Lobdell has always been notorious for being a pretty low quality writer, but this volume is proven to show some of his strengths.

Trigon needs to stay away from this book. Wasted potential.
