Synopsis

Now….Batman (Bruce Wayne) returns home although all is not well.  One hour earlier, Batman informs Amanda Waller that he will deal with the situation in Markovia.  Thirty minutes ago, Geo-Force tries to convince the Outsiders they need to hunt down Veritas, the one who attacked him.  The Outsiders, however, never saw Veritas.  Batman interrupts, telling Geo-Force he needs to act like a king and take responsibility.  Batman then suggests he rejoin the Outsiders.  Geo-Force refuses and leaves.  Batman then returns with the rest of the team.  He wonders what he is going to do with 13 Outsiders.  In Markovia, Geo-Force realizes he is the king and because of them he will remain apart from his people, forever an Outsider. 

Review by Binkley (e-mail)

Due to the fact that I am extremely behind schedule (by 3 months) completing reviews, the following few words will suffice until I can get back on track. 

Poor.  Shouldn’t a recap of the Outsiders been done at the beginning, rather than the end.  Take away the history lesson and all you have is about three or four pages of story.
