Jim Aparo moved over to BATMAN AND THE OUTSIDERS when BRAVE AND BOLD
was cancelled.  After pencilling it for over a year, the book was moved in the
Dc hardcover/softcover format, with new stories in THE OUTSIDERS on 
better paper, and reprints (delayed by one year) in BATO.

In order to keep both comics going while waiting for the next year to
elapse, they needed two artists to draw Outsiders stories concurrently
for that year.  

(Here's where I put my foot in my mouth if I get this wrong...)

So, Alan Davis is drawing BATO for a year, after which it will
become all reprint.  And Jim Aparo is drawing the new OUTSIDERS
deluxe-format comics.
