Young Justice: Outsiders - 10 Reasons To Be Excited

5. The Outsiders

As mentioned in the previous entry, there are strong signs that Nightwing's relationship with the team will have become strained. The most telling of which may be the involvement of the titular Outsiders.

In the comics, The Outsiders were founded by Batman after a falling out with the Justice League. Later versions of the team were even led by the aforementioned Dick Grayson.

The group is the Island of Misfit Toys, but with superpowers. The Outsiders incorporate beings that do not fit the societal standard of a superhero. Notable members have included Black Lightning, Catwoman and Arsenal.

Based on promotional material released in May, the Young Justice iteration will feature Superboy, Artemis (now Tigress), Black Lightning and Nightwing as lead. The show will also introduce Katana, Forager, Geo-Force, Halo and Metamorpho to round out the roster.

The Outsiders figure to be reluctant allies with The Team and Justice League this season, so we can expect the show to continue development of the relationship dynamics of its established characters and explore its new ones.
