Red Hood and the Outlaws #17 Review

From Evernote:

Red Hood and the Outlaws #17




5 / 5

I'm going to go ahead and dub this the unofficial epilogue to Death of the Family. Much like this week's DC Universe Presents gives us the Roy Harper time we want, this RHatO 17 is all Jason. It's also the best time we've had in the new 52 of Jason reflecting on his time as a member of the bat family. We get some conversations between Todd and Damien and Bruce that are likely to be considered classics in the future. We even have some acknowledgment of Dick's relationship with Starfire in the past. All-in-all, a very good issue. I think I'm going to use this as my jump-on point for the series once again. 

Of note, however, I really wish DC would adopt Marvel's trend of including recaps at the beginning of each issue. It's handy when jumping into the middle of a series like this. It's also just handy when I'm reading as many books as I do every month. Having a little something to jog my memory really goes a long way. Get on it DC :)
