DC fans are relishing in all of the new details surrounding Future State, the new publishing initiative that began to great fanfare this week. The new event has already encapsulated quite a lot of characters in DC’s canon, showcasing what could be in store for them in a near-future scenario. That especially proved to be the case for The Outsiders, the team that had a backup story in Future State: The Next Batman #1. In addition to providing a major new costume for Katana, the story established a pretty stunning new status quo for one of DC’s fan-favorite heroes, Jefferson Pierce/Black Lightning.
