Batman and the Outsiders #10 - Pages 10-12
Comics Code be damned, the Gotham Athletic Club is actually a gentleman's boudoir, complete with hookers dressed for a high society ball, and barbers' chairs. What Morgan Jones is into, I'm not sure I want to know.
Geo-Force will take the drinks, but not the girls. Take from that what you will.
He needs that liquid courage if he's gonna keep disrespecting the Bat. (I wonder if the Outsiders now think Batman's secret identity is always Matches Malone. After all, he hasn't let them in on his secrets. And if they do think Matches is Batman, do they think he's a crook playing hero, or a hero playing crook? The real answer is: The Outsiders don't actually think.)
Metamorpho will have a drink AND a girl, thanks.
Who you think about when you're in bed is none of our business, Rex! Cut to later (what happens a the Gotham Athletic Club stays at the Gotham Athletic Club)...
Morgan Jones just made Batman's day. He gets to watch the execution of one of his team mates AND play lone hero by leaving the others at home. It's what he does best. Not that Geo-Force has ever read a Batman comic:
Considering that the actual plan is to have Halo follow the Masters to their HQ to lead the team there, there doesn't seem to be any reason to think Batman will have to go it alone. So have these guys been TOLD the plan? Batman... playing it so close to the vest, the cards are inside his ribcage. We're off to the famous(?) Pier 24.
"Oh yeah, back in my Waterfront Mob days, we used to hang out at 24 all the time. Just enjoying the wood and water, like only grown men can." Oh look, foam!
You might have frisked him earlier, Morgan, but then you might have found the whole damn Batman costume under there. Guess we're lucky there wasn't a bat-transmitter in the belt. The sexual undercurrent keeps on giving here as New-Wave says Malone never "had" a girl like her back in the day (Pier 24 - gentlemen only), and you know how much Batman gets turned on by a bad girl.
OOH, DENIED! What's he gonna do tonight if he's alone
See? I told you this was wall-to-wall double entendre. No, really! Read:
Noooooooooooo! The Waterfront Mob's gentleman's club! It's a landmark! It's up to Geo-Force and Metamorpho to... show no confidence in their team mates?
These guys were at the car, to which Morgan Jones is presumably returning, so... did they step into an alley, or blow Batman's cover? Matches Malone isn't a one-off, you know! He needs tending! To be fair to their comments though, Halo IS a twit. But at least she's got the right power for the job.
But can she remember to use it correctly? Or will New-Wave just drown Batman just off the coast?
Tomorrow: The Outsiders attack! Can't wait for Katana not to stab anyone again.

The real answer is: The Outsiders don't actually think.
It's funny cuz it's true!
Matches Malone isn't a one-off, you know! He needs tending!
I started thinking, "if I was Batman, I don't think I'd want to risk the Matches Malone identity with the Outsiders." But then I remembered he's already risking the Batman identity with them, so in for a penny, I suppose...
