Batman and the Outsiders #3: Page 1

Outsiders #3 starts with an old-fashioned splash page, and while this is something of a well-regarded comic book tradition, it's a little like watching a movie's preview just before the movie starts, or the runner-up for cover image, or, let's be frank, padding.

And is more padding really necessary in an Outsiders story?What do we learn about the upcoming story here?
-Agent Orange is a giant.
-The key to beating him is undoing his belt buckle.
-Katana likes to massage Halo's feet very gently with the flat of her blade. It's an old acupuncture trick.
-Coloring by Adrienne Roy.

If any of these do not occur in this comic, I will be mighty peeved.
