Of all the people you'd want shepherding the next generation of supervillains, Jason Todd is probably pretty low on that list. But thanks to Lex Luthor's Year Of The Villain, that's exactly what Jason's got to deal with. These new characters are a peculiar lot. They're all a little over-designed, and various levels of psychotic, but they're also...oddly charming? They're all broken, so of course it makes sense for Jason to be the one to try and fix them. The story that they get plunged into isn'...
3.5 Stars.Picking up right where the last Volume left off, we find out that the favor Lex asked of Jason was to teach and train "Generation Outlaw", a team of upcoming "?super-villains?" (I leave it in question, because they may never become that). The team consists of: Cloud 9 - a girl who controls clouds and airDNA - a genderless construct that can change form at will, yet has a lot of philosophical reasoning (reminds me of Vision quite a bit)Doomed - a young smaller, less raging version of Do...
I'm so mad, what was this. This felt so off, it didn't fit in with the rest of the other volumes. Only the last issue was decent, but even then all that buildup towards Artemis and Jason kind of felt pointless if nothing was going to happen. Also I didn't care for the random kids Jason was teaching, I felt like this whole storyline came out of nowhere and I missed the simplicity of the previous volumes. but I'm still glad Artemis and Bizaro are back.
Almost gave this a 1 star but the last issue was pretty decent. Like seeing some growth for Jason. but the rest? shit.
The book on the whole wasn't the perfect read for me tonight. But there was one conversation...one page of dialogue and a single splash page that...Well, that's the way i needed to end tonight, personally.
Fun romp where redhood teaches new doom kids, fun concept. I really enjoyed this but I feel the old team stuff kept taking away from the kids.This also felt like a fast departure from the last arc.Both arcs could have been twice as long and not scratched the surface of story possibilities.I’m hoping it all warps up together nicely in the next volume.
Red Hood signs up to train the next generation of villains as part of Year of the Villain. It feels very much like Avengers: The Initiative. There's even a Cloud 9 in the group. Meanwhile Bizarro and Artemis finally return to our dimension. I like the Zangief look on Bizarro.
Just after reaching it's highest point in the previous volume, the series immediately plunges to it's lowest depth, with a host of unlikeable and poorly introduced 'students' in Red Hood's school for future super-criminals - one of the worst plotlines I've ever heard of let alone had the misfortune to read.
I love the Red Hood!! I still can't believe Roy is dead tho. BRING HIM BACK PLEASE! Other than that it was so cool to see Jason as a teacher. He's not the bad guy he thinks he is sometimes you know? I love this series!
Red Hood: Outlaw: Generation Outlaw continues where the previous trade paperback left off collecting the next six issues (Red Hood: Outlaw #37–42) of the 2016 on-going series and collects one stories: "Generation Outlaw"."Generation Outlaw is a six-issue storyline (Red Hood: Outlaw #37–42) that has Jason Todd as Red Hood managing and mentoring a team of adolescent anti-heroes for the Year of the Villain event. While mentoring, Artemis and Bizarro returns and after a brief fight, they also help R...
I'm a bit conflicted on this volume. On one hand, it was new and refreshing and I loved a lot of the humour, on the other hand, the idea just wasn't that well executed, it started abrupt and it ended abrupt, there wasn't any character development and overall it just felt... lacking.
Wot the hell is going on?
**I've read WAAAY more than I've been able to review, so.... time for some knee-jerk reactions!**- Red Hood teaching future villains... so wrong, but also so... right? I prefer Jason when he's on a lighter path, but I have a feeling he's going to help these kids more than actually let them be the next generation of villains. - Yay, Bizarro and Artemis are back! - I'm not a fan of the kids' powers (most are a little far-fetched for my taste), but the dynamics are interesting and I am enjoying thi...
Capuz Vermelho e os Foragidos, da leva do Renascimento DC, é aquela série que se tronou uma espécie de guilty pleasure para mim. Nem tanto por causa do Capuz Vermelho, mas por causa das interações dele com Ártemis e o Bizarro. Nessa segunda fase do título que se chama Capuz Vermelho: Foragido, as histórias não estavam num ritmo muito legal. Mas tudo muda com a adição dos adolescentes da Geração Foragida, uma turma fora do comum de alunos que Lex Luthor encarregou Jason Todd de ensinar a ser a no...
I’ve read this book. And now I wish to gouge out my eyes and wash my brain with bleach. I honestly feel like I got stupider reading this volume. It’s... so bad. It’s terrible. I mean, I just read it for Jason and he’s not in it much. The freak show team are literally just in there because the creators ran out of ideas. Also, some crap about Lex Luther and supervillains. Because Jason can’t be a good guy any more. Who knows. I like how Jason was drawn in all the issues except the last one. That’s...
Lex Luther puts Jason in charge of mentoring younger would be super villains. Bizarro and Artemis return to their Earth. Lots of fun in this one. I’m glad to have the 3 main characters back together. Looking forward to where it goes from here.
Introducing new characters is always a balancing act: Lobdell does a good job here. The new recruits are distinct and interesting, but could have been fleshed out just a bit more. Glad to see the original (kind-of) trio back together and they seem to blend well with the new bunch. This plotline allows Jason to be a textbook anti-hero, perfect for his persona.
2.75There’s an attempt to tie Jason into the villain event but without trying to make him full on villain. And at the same time w doing something new, bring back the old. So it does feel disjointed at times.
Okayyyy. Red hood decides to start running a school for child villains because...crossover event? And none of the other characters on the book say “hey Jason, why are you doing this?”
