The Outsiders recently formed in the Eastern European country of Markovia. Batman and Black Lightning had traveled there in order to free the captive Lucius Fox from Baron Bedlam, who has killed the country's king, King Viktor. Batman had resigned as a member of the Justice League in protest over the team's strict adherence to the United Nations Freedom of Power Treaty, which nominally forbids superpowered agents to act against the governments of signatory nations. Geo-Force himself is the prince of the country who gains powers from Markovia's top scientist, Dr. Helga Jace, in order to stop Bedlam. Metamorpho is searching for Dr. Jace in order for the doctor to help him with his powers. Katana arrives in Markovia in order to kill General Karnz, Bedlam's military commander, as vengeance for her family. During the adventure, Batman finds a young amnesiac girl exhibiting light-based powers in the woods, who he dubs Halo. The team bands together and defeats Baron Bedlam and decides to stay together afterwards.
The current roster of the Outsiders is:
Batman (Bruce Wayne)
Metamorpho (Rex Mason)
Geo-Force (Brion Markov)
Black Lightning (Jefferson Pierce)
Halo (Gabrielle Doe)
Katana (Tatsu Yamashiro)
Recent Events / Current History:
When Wayne Industries Chief Financial Officer Lucius Fox is captured by freedom fighters in the nation of Markovia, Batman seeks the aid of the Justice League to rescue him, however the group declines Batman's plea for help stating the potential diplomatic problems that may result from such an attack. Angered, Batman quits the League and decides to go alone.
In Markovia, the king dies leaving his sons Gregor and Brion in charge of the country. Meanwhile, the hero Metamorpho is in the country seeking out Dr. Jace in another attempt to cure himself. While Batman enlists the aid of Black Lightning to help find Lucius, the plan goes awry, when Black Lightning's planned capture is interrupted by Katana who has come to Markovia seeking revenge. During the altercation Black Lightning is captured, and Katana escapes.
Batman later finds the mysterious amnesiatic girl named Halo, and the two go seeking out Batman's friends, while in the Markovian palace. Brion is given powers by Dr. Jace, and becomes the hero Geoforce, however he is betrayed by his soldiers, think he is a mutant, and shot in cold blood. Metamorpho tries to avenge the boy but is similarly captured.
Batman is soon also captured by the soldiers, leaving only Halo alone in the wilderness to figure out what to do. Batman awakens and finds himself in a dungeon with the other heroes and Lucius, and soon finds out that he is a prisoner of Baron Bedlam.
Batman, Metamorpho, Black Lightning, and Lucius Fox are the prisoner of Baron Bedlam, who is seeking to reclaim the nation of Markovia after his family was ousted from power after the Nazi's lost World War II. Leaving his prisoners to aquire similar powers from Dr. Jace as she gave Markovian co-ruler Geoforce, the heroes manage to pool their resources and break free of their imprisonment.
They then meet up with Katana, Halo and Geo-Force and work together to stop Brother Bedlam's army, while Metamorpho rescues Dr. Jace. Geoforce goes up against Brother Bedlam alone and easily defeats the villain, throwing him to the peasants of Markovia for suitable punishment.
With the battle won, Batman offers the group to return to Gotham City with him to find new purpose and work together as a team, and thus the Outsiders are born.
