Red Hood & The Outlaws #1 Preview

Red Hood is just pretending to be one of the bad guys (right?) in this preview for Red Hood & The Outlaws #1

Jason Todd has always been the quintessential anti-hero since he was reborn as Red Hood. He might ultimately be doing something for the greater good, but his methods are usually ones that might make even Batman think twice. In Red Hood an the Outlaws, Todd is chasing down the origin of a deadly techno nano virus that nearly killed the Mayor, which leads him to not only Black Mask, but ties into a darker chapter of his past. And he’s doing it by at least appearing to be one of the baddest criminals in Gotham. Check out the synopsis and preview pages for Red Hood & The Outlaws #1 below:

For all these previews between the Rebirth one shot and this new Red Hood & The Outlaws #1, there hasn’t been one shot of Bizarro or Artemis yet, so they aren’t even part of the Outlaws yet I’m guessing? Of course the original Outlaws were sort of formed by happenstance to begin, so this will probably be the same deal. And of course in his quest to climb to the top of the criminal food chain in order to track down Black Mask, will Red Hood go too far? Find out in Red Hood & The Outlaws #1, out tomorrow!
