Outsiders #41 - DC


The title of this issue is "State of Grace". And in that I was hoping that we would learn a little more about the secret that is Grace. But no! Not this issue. However, with a little interaction between Grace and Lightning's daughter , we find out that not only does she know Grace's secret, but that they are in love. Meeoooww!! With last issues trouncing of Siler & Grey, Dr. Sivana has decided to do 2 things, first he's going to blow up the nuclear facility and hopefully incinerate anyone or thing that may be privy to his involvement. You just know that's not going to work. Secondly, he contacts Lois Lane and sends her video, not only of the explosion, but of all the activities the Outsiders have been involved in over the last year or so, because the world was lead to believe they were dead. Which really isn't that big of a deal, in and of itself, but some of the things the Outsiders have done, or were involved with, weren't exactly lawful. And I'm sure, taken out of context, and on video, it looks even worse. So now, not only do they have to find Dr. Sivana, which the Pequod has helped them out with, but they also have to whether the shitstorm that's going to be headed their way from every news outlet in the world. We still have Judd Winick, Matthew Clark and Ron Randall and the creative helm, and they are doing a bang up job. I've been an Outsiders fan, ever since the "First Issue Special", but this, in my opinion, is the best it's ever been.
