SOMEONE WHO HAS TUMBLR

[eliyes]

Please go to Ask Robins and ask the Robins how excited they are about getting to all be in a comic together!

Please? I can't do it myself, as I am tumblfree.

Is Jason going to kill somebody? PLEASE LET JASON KILL SOMEBODY!

Do you not feel the Jason Todd love?

It's Batman: The Brave and the Bold. It's far too innocent for good guys to be killing people. If you want Jason Todd killing people, I direct your attention to Red Hood adn the Outlaws, DCnU Jason's current on-going.

Oh, I adore Red Hood and the Outlaws, but Jason wasn't that innocent when he was young (I didn't think). He always had a desire to go further than Bruce would let him in taking out the bad guys, while Bruce kept "trying to teach him a lesson." (I have many issues with Batman as the head of the Bat Family, if you couldn't tell;)

He was before they retconned what had happened in preparation for having him show up again as a crazy person. I've read the original stuff, all the comics that actually had him in them as Robin before he died, including his appearences in Titans and Blue Devil. He wasn't that different from Dick, and I don't mean his pre-Crisis circus aerialist orphan origin. He was kinda dorky and funny.

Until Jim Starlin, who hated Jason, took over the books and immediately started agitating to kill him off (his first idea was to give him AIDS) and writing him as unlikable (the "he slipped" story? Jim Starlin. P.S. it's never said the guy didn't slip, and given what he'd done, I'd have been hard-pressed not to push him myself) to goad the fans into wanting him dead so he'd get permission.

I have issues with how Batman's character was warped after Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns" proved so popular, and how that warping has lead to retcons where Jason was a little savage Bruce left tied to a chair in the cave. That's not Jason. That's not Batman.

Excellent! Thank you, bunny! *hugs and hugs and hugs*

....all of them. In one place. &hearts

I would fear for the continued structural integrity of the Batcave, though, from the sheer force of indefatigable tenacity they'd exert.
