Red Hood and The Outlaws #39 – Vol. 1 – 2015 delivers a gripping and emotional chapter in the ongoing saga of Jason Todd, Arsenal (Roy Harper), and Starfire (Koriand’r), as the team’s loyalty to one another is tested like never before. Written by Scott Lobdell with art by Mikel Janín, this issue strikes a powerful balance between action, character development, and high-stakes conflict, providing readers with a story full of tension, sacrifice, and raw emotion.

Following the aftermath of their previous battles, the Outlaws find themselves facing an all-new threat that puts everything they’ve fought for at risk. The issue introduces a dangerous, high-profile adversary who seems to have a personal vendetta against the team — particularly Jason Todd. As the team is drawn into an escalating confrontation, Jason is forced to reckon with the consequences of his violent past, all while trying to lead the team through an impossible situation. Tensions within the group begin to surface, highlighting their insecurities, fears, and complex relationships.

Scott Lobdell excels in exploring the emotional undercurrents of the Outlaws, particularly Jason’s struggle with his identity and the weight of being a hero despite his violent methods. His internal conflict drives the story forward, providing a strong narrative that adds layers to the action-heavy plot. Roy’s loyalty and self-doubt, as well as Starfire’s quiet wisdom and support, help ground the story in a dynamic exploration of found-family bonds.

The artwork by Mikel Janín is superb, with clean, detailed lines and a cinematic feel that enhances the issue’s tension and drama. His strong character expressions convey the emotional turmoil the characters are going through, while his action sequences are dynamic and thrilling, capturing the explosive nature of the battles the team faces. The colours by Jeremiah Skipper add an atmospheric touch, with cool tones underscoring moments of tension and warmer hues offering a contrast in more intimate, reflective scenes.

Red Hood and The Outlaws #39 is a standout issue in the series, offering readers a mix of action, heart, and the complexity of superhero team dynamics. With high-stakes threats, personal growth, and intense battles, this issue builds on the themes of redemption and loyalty that have defined the series.
