Publication History
Because of publication differences between Batman and the Outsiders, The Outsiders vol. 1, and Adventures of the Outsiders, the Bad Samaritan's first published appearance was not his first in appearance in DC Comics' shared fictional universe. His first chronological appearance was in The Outsiders #3 (January 1986), but according to The Outsiders #4 where he refers to events that occurred in Adventures of the Outsiders #34 (June 1986), which was the first time he ever met Geo-Force. His first actual in universe appearance occurred in Batman and the Outsiders #32, (April 1986).

Famous quotes containing the words publication and/or history:
“An action is the perfection and publication of thought. A right action seems to fill the eye, and to be related to all nature.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I am ashamed to see what a shallow village tale our so-called History is. How many times must we say Rome, and Paris, and Constantinople! What does Rome know of rat and lizard? What are Olympiads and Consulates to these neighboring systems of being? Nay, what food or experience or succor have they for the Esquimaux seal-hunter, or the Kanaka in his canoe, for the fisherman, the stevedore, the porter?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
