Red Hood, Arsenal and Starfire enter the Chamber of All to discover what the Untitled wanted but they'll need to leave their most cherished memories as collateral! And when you're a reincarnated sidekick who lets your madon get the better of you, a former addict turned soldier of fortune, and an intergalactic princess who never quite recovered from a childhood spent as a prisoner of war...? Well, there aren't a lot of cherished memories to choose from! All this as the trio draws ever closer to dealing with a threat that's already killed the ancient caste of assassins who taught Jason Todd everything he knows about the art of killing!
The art is almost too good as it'd be hard to imagine these characters appearing in other titles drawn by someone else. That and their new direction makes it hard to place where they came from before and what of their pre-New 52 histories are still intact. We do discover some bits of their past though. We get some insight that finally begins to let us know who Jason, Roy and Kori are. Behavior from previous issues is starting to make sense as everything is starting to unfold. I'm really starting to care about these characters and combination of art, humor and adventure simply made this a blast to read. That's what I want from a comic. I want to be able to enjoy it and have fun. Read Full Review
Red Hood #3 is a step in the right direction of contributing more than just stylistic flair and anti-heroes, but the art needs to step up to that level as well if this series is to remain on the upward path. Read Full Review
Eh. That sums up my thoughts on this one in a nutshell. I mean it was kind of cool to see the Outlaws in their pasts, but the story here is still a major letdown. Don't get me wrong, I WANT to like a series that stars Jason Todd and Roy Harper. I really do. But thus far this series hasn't done it for me. Read Full Review

What should be an illuminating issue of "Red Hood and the Outlaws" is more of a turn-off issue. It's clear what Scott Lobdell is going for and the way he writes the comic makes this a lackluster issue. In an issue that should make readers understand the protagonists more and make us want to root for them, he accomplishes the opposite. Read Full Review
This issue give us a first glimpse to the outlaws' past and it doesn't dissapoints. That final sequence really tugs at one heartstrings.
