Batwoman and Luke Fox are ready to explore the forgotten corners of the multiverse—and a universe of secrets is about to come to light!

Batman protects Gotham City from evil. Batman Inc. protects the rest of the known world. But what of the unknown world? What of the ancient evils in hidden tombs and forgotten tragedies from a magic-and-mad-science fueled super-heroic century?

Using his fortune, Luke Fox launches a new organization dedicated to shining light into the world’s darkest corners. His first recruit: Kate Kane, the Batwoman—who will re-embrace her military background to protect Luke’s dream and encounter every bit of strangeness the DCU has to offer.

And just wait until you meet the Third Man…or learn what universe-shattering secret they’ve discovered buried under Antarctica.

Outsiders Vol. 1 digs into all the forgotten corners of DC’s history, the true nature of the DC Multiverse…and the forgotten stories that make up its fabric!
Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly are screenwriters and New York Times bestselling comic book creators, known for Gotham City Garage, Batman & Robin Eternal, and Grayson (DC Comics); JoYRIDE (Boom! Studios); Alyssa Milano's Hacktivist (Archaia); and Zojaqan (Vault Comics). Parallel to their comics career, Lanzing and Kelly are screenwriters, having worked with directors and producers such as Peter Berg, Akiva Goldsman, John Moore, and Barry Josephson. In 2016 they wrote all 13 episodes of Youtube Red's first animated series, Kings of Atlantis, and wrote the pilot "Holoscape" for Roddenberry Entertainment.
