Who Knew!, March 25, 2005
This review is from: Outsiders: Looking for Trouble (Paperback)
Who knew this "Real World" dude could write? Well, he did get an Eisner nomination for "Pedro and Me," his graphic novel about his RW roomie who died of AIDS.
But this book is... GREAT! Outsiders is gritty, funny, and has a great edge to it. Definitely not a book for young kids. It also has some good ol' superhero storytelling, so it's a great blend of the old and new.
The best part (surprisingly) is the Metamorpho storyline, about what happened to him when he disappeared and how he returned, very cool. Great appearance by the Joker too. Winick really knows how to write for Joker (funny and twisted). The artwork is impressive too.
I can't wait to pick up the 2nd TPB!

nice start, January 13, 2006
This review is from: Outsiders: Looking for Trouble (Paperback)
I had no idea what I was getting into with this one. I've always been a big night wing fan, but didn't know much about the other team members.
I think this is the beggining of a great run of comics. Team books these days seem to have that feeling of forced interaction, ie the JLA books, the x-men books, but not this one. The diverse characters don't feel forced and neither do thier relationships, or purpose in the DC universe. They have a reason for doing what they are doing and it feels real. Grace is a super cool chick and i really like this new metamorpho, shift guy.
I hope this one keeps getting better and don't doubt that it will.

Good comic, January 12, 2008
This review is from: Outsiders: Looking for Trouble (Paperback)
This was one of my favorite comics I usually don't like DC. This comic made like DC. It has a lot of action and a good story with Metamorpho story was good how it had a twist at the end. I think this is one of my favorite superhero teams ever.
