The Virtue of Revenge is a Young Justice (2010) post-Season 2 fanfic written by Loyal as a Book that takes place a year after the events of Invasion.Darkseid is coming to Earth, with the intent of invading their world and enslaving the populace. More heroes will be needed in the fights to come, but not every hero follows the traditional rules of heroism. A Ragtag Bunch of Misfits composed of a rejected meta-human, a freakish half-demon, a broken amputee, an exiled alien princess, and an angry dead Robin all adhere to only one rule:Revenge is the law of the Outlaws.Due to the author's writing schedule, the story hasn't been updated since December of 2017, though he does have plans to continue it.

Acceptable Breaks from Canon
 The Virtue of Revenge (Fanfic) / int_10ac6e2a
comment
Acceptable Breaks from Canon: Since the story was made after the series' cancellation when it showed no sign of continuing, there are many differences compared to when it continued with Outsiders. Ras al Ghul is revealed to have been restored by the Lazarus Pit after his death near the end of Invasion and stepped down, leading to Shiva ruling the League of Shadows. Here, he's reportedly dead for good, with his daughter Talia now at the helm of the League of Shadows. Nightwing left the team and worked on his own for two years. He rejoins the team here much earlier. Jason suffered amnesia after his resurrection and serves as an enforcer/servant of Ra's in canon. Here, he has all his memories and is more of an independent agent of the Shadows. Lex Luthor is still secretary general come the events of Outsiders, but he becomes president of the United States in this story. Damian was revealed to be a newborn baby in Outsiders. He's around his comic counterpart's age in this story. It's also unknown if Jon Kent even exists here like he did in Outsiders and Phantoms, though he doesn't seem to. Halo, Geo-force, Forager, and the Outsiders as a whole are Adapted Out. Batman Incorporated also doesn't seem like it will be a thing in this story. Vandal Savage's endgame in the show was to evolve the people of Earth enough to fight Darkseid in an agreed battle to determine the ruler of the galaxy. Here, he seems to be helping Darkseid conquer Earth, but for what reason is left unknown.

Always Someone Better
 The Virtue of Revenge (Fanfic) / int_19d1c1ae
comment
Always Someone Better: Jason and Tim view each other as this from both sides. Jason sees Tim as everything Batman could have ever wanted in a protege, while Tim greatly looks up to Jason and doubts that he'll ever be able to fill his shoes. Discussed with Klarion in regards to Raven. Since her magic is demonic in nature, she's stated to outclass Zatanna. Considering Zatanna's reluctance to let the team enter the fray after learning this fact, combined that her not holding back is enough to outright terrify Klarion (something that not even Dr. Fate could do even with a mythically inclined host), he's probably right.

Pay Evil unto Evil
 The Virtue of Revenge (Fanfic) / int_1d18887f
comment
Pay Evil unto Evil: The Outlaws methods against criminals are usually gruesome and disturbing, ranging from physical brutality to psychological torture. However, they're usually pitted against rapists, remorseless scumbags, parademons, and the worst of the criminal underworld, so it's not like their enemies are undeserving of such actions.

Cruel and Unusual Death
 The Virtue of Revenge (Fanfic) / int_1e584efa
comment
Cruel and Unusual Death: The Outlaws have inflicted these on some of their victims: Against Parademons, Starfire melted one from inside out, resulting in its molten innards pouring out of its mouth, Arsenal shot one through its ear and reduced its head to chunky salsa, and Raven performed Medieval torture on one by ripping it to pieces. Red X basically reenacts his torture received from the Joker but with the roles reversed. Finally ending with him snapping his neck in front of Batman and the Team.

comment
Mythology Gag: Jason using the Red X guise as his code name is one for the original Teen Titans cartoon. Furthermore, many fans of the original show believed Red X's identity to be Jason Todd. How does Red X respond to being surrounded by the team? The confrontation between the now revealed Jason, Batman, and Nightwing is lifted straight from the comics and animated film for Under the Red Hood.

The Bad Guy Wins: In the end, despite his death, the Joker won. He completely broke Jason into becoming a murderer, tormented Batman with the boy's demise, and dies knowing that Batman will carry this guilt with him forever. This is shown by him going out the only way he knows how: laughing at his enemy's misfortune.

Curb-Stomp Battle
 The Virtue of Revenge (Fanfic) / int_3d699462
comment
Curb-Stomp Battle: Calling Bane's fight with Starfire this would imply that he actually stood a chance, given that she easily overpowers him before finishing him off with a finger flick to the face. The Team vs. The Outlaws has the team getting effortlessly taken out. Batman even notes that this was due to each of the Outlaws having an exact method of taking down each member of the team that was there at that point. This also signifies to them that they have another mole on the team.

Death by Adaptation: Ra's al Ghul was revealed to be alive in Season 3 and no longer leading the Shadows, having passed the role down to Deathstroke. He's dead for good here. Unlike many incarnations who always find a way out of the situation, the Joker dies for good here by Jason's hands.

comment
Adaptational Superpower Change: Jason's fighting style is now more akin to how an aggressive version of Robin would fight and uses swordsmanship when needed, contrasting his comic counterpart who made heavy use of firearms. This was likely done so that Arsenal wouldn't seem redundant due to his status as The Gunslinger.

Adaptation Distillation: The Outlaws combine elements of the Teen Titans from the previous cartoon and from Red Hood and the Outlaws. The team is composed of Red X (Jason Todd), Arsenal, and Starfire, all of whom were a team in Outlaws, but the latter was also a member of the original Teen Titans alongside Raven, who is also a member here. Red X was an original character from the past Titans cartoon before he became a Canon Immigrant, but is used as the identity of Jason Todd rather than Red Hood.

 The Virtue of Revenge (Fanfic) / int_68da6712
comment
Canon Welding: The story fuses elements from other DC canons, giving it a more unique flavor. Jason's Red X persona and costume comes from the Teen Titans. Jason being a Cute Bookworm comes from the Arkham series. Jason's original death in A Death in the Family is heavily modified. While in the comic book was beaten up for a few hours before being blown up, here Jason was brutally tortured while Harley distracted Batman and Nightwing. This also draws in elements of his Batman: Arkham Knight version. Supergirl's negative attitude towards clones is derived from her Supergirl (2011) counterpart. Dick helped Bruce look for Jason after he was captured, while in canon he only learned about Jason's death from the newspapers and as such he missed his funeral. Jason's Pit madness comes from Batman: Under the Red Hood. Also, parts of the Under the Hood comic books are directly quoted when Jason has a standoff with Dick and Bruce in chapter 23.

Black-and-White Morality: The team and Justice League have a rather narrow view of good and evil. This results in most of them aggressively categorizing the Outlaws as criminals, most notably Batman. Though some, like Tim and Beast Boy, can understand that there's more to the situation than it seems.

Entertainingly Wrong: Robin apparently thought that Raven was some kind of witch. While this isn't a bad guess given her demeanor, the readers know that she's actually a half-demon, which is reportedly far more powerful than any witch. Zatanna and Klarion have an Oh, Crap! moment when they figure this out. Doubly so for Klarion when he sees that she's Trigon's spawn and is no ordinary half-breed.

comment
Asshole Victim: The people the Outlaws kill usually deserve every second of what's done to them. The two rapists that were about to have their way with Margaret Stanson definitely earned their gruesome fate, as Red X duped one into killing his brother and goaded him into committing suicide. Speaking of Margret, her sister, Gloria, was raped by Felipe Gonzales, who got away with it... until Jason Todd confronted and killed him by pushing him off a building. Parademons in general, since they come from a Planet of Always Chaotic Evil and are kidnapping innocent people for experimentation. Typically, their deaths involve being burned inside out or being subjected to dismemberment. You can just hear the readers cheering when Red X finally kills the Joker.

It's Personal: The Outlaws have some pretty personal grudges against certain villains who are responsible for their lots in life and as such seek retribution against them. A pettier example. Wonder Girl hates Rose Worth for flirting with Tim and trying to take his attention. When she jumps to the conclusion that Rose is the mole based on the fact that she's Deathstroke's daughter, Rose leaves, she's suspended from the Team until further noticed, and Tim wants nothing to do with her anymore.

Ascended Extra: Jason and Roy were rather minor characters in the show. Jason only had a small cameo as a hologram in Season 2 alongside brief showing as the red-hooded ninja in later seasons, while Arsenal's major plot was saving the rest of the team alongside the Runaways before losing all relevance in the next season. Here, they're part of the central cast. Talia only had a nonspeaking cameo in Season 3. She plays a bigger role here and is integral to Jason's backstory.

Joker Immunity: Jason didn't stay dead thanks to the Lazarus Pit. Kind of ironic when you consider who this trope is named after. Averted with Ra's al Ghul. He's apparently dead for good this time. Averted with the actual Joker. He dies, with Jason directly killing him in front of Batman and the Team.

Dramatic Irony: The Green Lanterns are under the impression that Starfire is working with the Light and providing them with information on Darkseid due to Tamaran's past with Apokolips. Of course, the readers know that Darkseid and the Light have been working with each other for a long time, that the Outlaws oppose the Light, and that Starfire has nothing but hatred for the God of Tyranny due to her past as his slave.

Epigraph
 The Virtue of Revenge (Fanfic) / int_b53c57d5
comment
Epigraph: Every chapter begins with a quote or excerpt from someone well known in literature or other fields, even some from fictional characters, sometimes tying in with the chapter itself. Chapter 1: "Once we accept our limits, we go beyond them." - Albert Einstein. Chapter 2 begins with the iconic rhyme from The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe. As you can guess, this is where Raven is introduced. Chapter 3: "Thieves respect property. They merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it." - Gilbert K. Chesterton. Chapter 4: "Woman and cats will do as they please, men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." - Robert A. Heinlein. As you can guess, Catwoman is involved here. Chapter 5: "Whatever it takes to find the real you, don't be daunted if the rest of the world looks on in shock." - Stephen Richards. Chapter 6: "It has been said, 'time heals all wounds.' I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone." - Rose Kennedy. Chapter 7: "All the world is made of faith, and trust, and pixie dust." - J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan. Chapter 8: "Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake." - Napoleon Bonaparte. Chapter 9: "Justice will not be served until those who are unaffected are as outraged as those who are." Benjamin Franklin. This ties into Margret Stanson's rage at the justice system and Batman for allowing her sister's rapist to go unpunished. Chapter 11: "Memories warm you up from the inside. But they also tear you apart." - Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore. Chapter 12: "Ask me no questions, and I'll tell you no lies." - Oliver Goldsmith. Chapter 13: "Now I know what a ghost is. Unfinished business, that's what." - Salman Rushdie.

Anti-Hero Team: The Outlaws are this. They're firmly on the side of good, but they are willing to cross lines that the Justice League and Team never would, often involving killing their victims. They also have few qualms with stealing to make ends meet.

Super Registration Act

comment
Super Registration Act: What the Team and League fear now that Luthor is president. It comes to pass in Chapter 20, with Godfrey smugly telling the viewers (and heroes by extension) that in order to operate legally as heroes, they need to reveal their secret identities and register with the American government. However, not all states agree to this, such as California, which just so happens to be where Jump City and the Outlaws' base of operations are.

comment
Artistic License: The reason why the author decided to make Lex Luthor the US president rather than the UN Secretary-General is that the position was mostly a figurehead while most of the relevant power rests within the Security Council. Plus, the US is the world's superpower, which fits Luthor's desire for power and control.

Composite Character
 The Virtue of Revenge (Fanfic) / int_e4965307
comment
Composite Character: Jason takes in elements of Red X from the Teen Titans cartoon while his backstory follows Under the Red Hood. He also has elements of Dick Grayson given his association with Raven and Starfire. Starfire has elements of both her cartoon version mixed with her Red Hood and the Outlaws personality. Arsenal is similar to Cyborg in that he's the team's Gadgeteer Genius and frequently works maintenance around their base like Victor did in Teen Titans for Titans Tower. His Arm Cannon also turns into a Sonic Cannon, which was Cyborg's iconic weapon from the cartoon.

comment
Adaptation Origin Connection: In the comics and previous show involving her, Starfire never had any connections to the New Gods or Apokolips. Here, she was sold into slavery as part of a peace agreement set up by Blackfire between Tamaran and Darkseid so that she could consolidate power.

Red X was an original character from the past Titans cartoon before he became a Canon Immigrant, but is used as the identity of Jason Todd rather than Red Hood.

Dark and Troubled Past: So many characters have this that it can be downright impressive how they turned out as well as they have. All of the Outlaws fall very deep into this category with the exception of Titan, and even he has issues with his past that he's struggling to work out.
