    It’s the ultimate battle royal as team member faces off against team member! It’s Geo-Force verses Black Lightning for the control – and the fate – of The Outsiders, and the team will never EVER be the same again!

    Dan, you had me at "will never EVER be the same again".

    On sale MARCH 3 • 1 of 4 • 32 pg, FC, $2.99 US
    Written by IVAN BRANDON
    Art by CLIFF RICHARDS
    For Thomas Andrew Tresser, aka Nemesis, the world of metahuman espionage is never what it seems. After his recent “reeducation” at the hands of the Global Peace Agency, Nemesis finds himself thrust back into the real world with enemies seemingly around every corner. Tasked with uncovering the truth about his mission and the true identities of those hoping to unleash a great evil on the world, Nemesis is forced to confront the fact that he may not be able to trust anybody in the universe – including himself.

    Nicola Scott is probably going to be on WW now. I know she was supposed to come back to Secret Six, but it's ok, I understand. *Sniff* Oh, man, not now.....

    Oh hey. Nicola Scott is gonna be on Wonder Woman. That's pretty cool. I loved her art in the Blackest Night: Wonder Woman tie-in. Was hoping to see some more of it. And Simone works very well with Scott. Perhaps the pair of them will be able to churn out some good stories for WW.

    The Jonah Hex OGN kind of intrigues me, as Tony DeZuniga's drawing it. And the Showcase Presents: Dial H for Hero and Atomic Knights TPBs are must-buys. Mike Oeming on The Shield's back-up strip could be cool.

    Otherwise, nothing's really jumping out at me aside from the usual stuff I buy.

    Booster Gold is going back to $3 minus the Blue Beetle backup.

    He's probably going to show up in TT though (not as a backup).

    Green Arrow is also losing the backup.

    So many books I should be dropping, but feel obligated to stick with (Streets of Gotham, Batman, Action Comics, etc). Plus a bunch of One-shots, limited, and series I'll be on. Bah.

    Really, a month of no surprises. Also, notice how the Adventure Comics collection only has issues 0-3, and 5+6. It's missing the first Blackest Night tie-in, but has the second. Very strange.

    Also, legion backups not included :(

    The second BN tie-in also had a back up of a normal Superboy story, yes? so probably just the back up and not the PRIME TIME junk.

    So a $25 hardcover will have essentially 5 issues (Adv 1, 2, 3, 6 and then the short-length 0 and backup).

    That's still pretty lame.

    All the new books are completely uninteresting and Justice League looks like it's going to be worse than ever. And another 80 Page Giant that's probably full of mediocre-to-terrible stories and way over-priced.

    Huh, looks like I'll be buying GL, GLC, Blackest Night, and Milestone Forever. I'm probably going to trade wait First Wave, even though it looks cool.

    I need to drop Batman, also Dan Didio on Outsiders is easily saving me money. Is this the first time he's ever written a comic? I've never seen his name on anything before. Either way it sounds like garbage.

    He also apparently wrote a couple of issues of Superboy back before he got the EIC (or whatever DC call it) job but I'm pretty sure Palmiotti was co-writing with him.

    So yeah, he's a terrible, terrible writer.

    I'll give it one issue. The Metal Men story in Wednesday comics was decent. Couldn't be worse than Dixon in any case.

    This reminds me of when Bill Jemas tried writing Sub Mariner. Although it'll probably be worse than that.

    I'm not a huge fan of Dixon's Outsiders, but at least people seemed somewhat aware of the book when he was writing it, which is more than can be said about pretty much everything done with the team since.
