Red Hood: Outlaw #48

I have a feeling this book is going to be an important one in the Joker War event, something I'm really gripped by. When you reach that last page, you'll see why I'm saying this. I've been waiting a long time for this to be resolved, so I can't wait to see what happens next. Read Full Review

Still, the allusion to Jason Todd's death was powerful. Shows how much he's grown since he came back to life. Read Full Review

Lobdell seems to be wrapping up his run in a classy way, and I hope the next two issues are as good as this one. Read Full Review

Some tie-in books dont add much to the main story, but this issue is definitely worth grabbing for readers who have been casually invested in this epic Batman event. Read Full Review

Both Scott Lobdell and Brett Booth are bringing their "A" games to this Joker War tie-in that really combines a lot of things from Jason Todd's past to screw with him in the present and I couldn't be happier. Yeah, it does get old when we always bring up Jason's death, but here it works well and makes me excited for what's to come from a lot of characters in a book that looks amazing the whole way through.

Im surprised to say I do want to find out how this will all get resolved and what the ramifications will be. Im looking forward to seeing not only Jason respond to this fiasco but the other members of the Bat-Family as well! Read Full Review

Overall this issue is surprisingly good, building on Jasons mythology, moving the story forward in The Joker War and keeping things tight and right throughout. Read Full Review

For a book designed to line up with the Joker War event, this was a fun read. Punchline's plan could have used a little work, and the conversation between Joker and Jason really didn't do much for me, but generally I enjoyed reading this. Additionally, Lobdell takes the opportunity to give readers another look at Jason and Bruce's relationship while also lining up some plot elements for later in the series. All in all, if you've been reading the Joker War books, this isn't a bad one to pick up. Read Full Review

This issue places Jason Todd squarely in the events of the Joker War, in a way that is both bombastic and slightly hollow. Read Full Review

Oh please, it won't be the three Jokers but I lift Lobdell with this number, I loved that if it weren't for Punchline (a character that I still can't make sense of) I would have kicked the unbearable Dickie boy's ass. Damn when Jason finds Duela in his arms going through what Batman went through when he was robin it was that phenomenal, I can almost advocate for Lobdell as writer of Red Hood, if he did not drop the series without concluding things it would be phenomenal because the man arrives to have good ideas.

there is an abrupt cut in the continuity quite terrible, nevertheless the story is excellent, dramatic. The art is not very good but the way it expresses the emotions of Red Hood is great.

A good tie-in to the Joker War which leads to the previous issue of Nightwing. It's from Red Hood's view and I liked it. The art was A class.

A good tie in. Separate from the main storyline going on with Red Hood. I liked the whole PTSD segment with Red Hood and Punchline and what not. This tie-in in general touches back on alot of past memories of Jason before he became Red Hood, which I really liked. Great art by Booth, writing was decent. Good action, quick pace, some interesting panel options. Just an all around solid tie-in. Its draws on high emotion , but its nothing super important.

For a series that’s been very off the rails for quite some time, this worked for me for the most part

I dropped this series long ago. Just came back for the Joker War tie-in. This issue was very bland and contrived. I'm glad I bailed on this series a while ago.

This was not worth reading for Joker War alone.

Nerf Nightwing for Jason to shine (Yet Jason can't still beat him in this issue LOL). That's okay. I can give it a 5/10. But female Joker makes this 1/10.
