My Red Hood figure has arrived this week.
The figure is very, very nice. (Sorry for the bad photo quality.)
Jason is now guarding my collection of unread trades. :D

Thanks again @Dark_Tzitzimine and @johnpeelgothisgun for the recommendations. :)
If Jason's purpose was just the Joker's death, he would have done it himself. What Jason truly wanted in UTRH was for Bruce to prove that he [I]cared[/I]. He didn't care about the batfamily or any other hero except Bruce which is why him suddenly becoming obsessed with the other Robins post UTRH never made any sense.
Saying that Morrison's take on Red Hood is the "logical" endpoint for Winick's take is quite funny to me because the way Winick handled Jason when he took over BR speak volumes about how unhappy he was with what Morrison has done.
[QUOTE]Lobdell, on the other hand, has never seen Jason as a villain and in fact, the only condition he put when he landed the gig was being allowed to redeem Jason and inching him closer to be a hero.[/QUOTE]
That wasn't really about how he saw Jason. Lobdell simply didn't feel like he want to write a story about a villain at that time, be it Jason or anyone else.

It's how I remember perceiving it too. The whole UtH was about Jason's own insecurities as someone who maybe wasn't loved after all. It wasn't about proving Bruce that his methods didn't work, or controlimg crime, or even killing Joker. It was about Jason "crying" because he wanted to know if someone really cared for him. And I think, when he beat Tim in TTitans (under Johns), that too, was more about proving a point to Tim and Jason himself (that Bruce didn't care enough about any Robin), than proving that Tim was inferior to him or didn't deserve being Robin. It's why he didn't kill him in the end. Jason has this whole "I said this and deny that to even myself saying the contrary, but I show this feeling and act that way in reality" under Lobdell too, even if it's less subtle. Dini's too had those features. And Jason in AK too, was that way.
His "bad blood" with the fam was, for me, more "Why didn't you love me, why wasn't I worth enough?" than "Fuck you, I'll make you pay for not accepting me the way I am," which is somethimg he seems to not care much about, and something I think Lobdell understood well, too.
But, like I said, this may be very similar to how we create our own headcanons.
Edit: @Restingvoice. I think, by Countdown, they did have a plan for him. But then they ditched it in the last months of that year for whatever reason. And then comes Morrison's whole period (with other writers alongside him) if I'm not getting my order wrong. Brothers in Blood, too, was a bit of an editorial mess and wasn't mean to be like that, or so I've heard someone else comment once. If it helps.

Still the pose I've liked the most of any figure so far. It's really, really nice looking. I envy you :3_.

I love the idea of the Outlaws of Justice. Lobdell should brought back his old pitch (hilariously relevant after Doomsday's Clock end) and have multiple Outlaws team-up.[/QUOTE]
Who is fused with whom?
I recognize Cheetah and Creeper.
Swamp Thing and Etrigan seem to have their usual design.
Is Jason just a Red Lantern or is there a reference to a certain member of the Red Lantern Corps?

I love the pose too. It looks natural.
Jason seems to observe the area and is ready to strike any moment if necessary.
But there is also some element of easiness in his pose earned by experience.
The figure size is great too since I don't have a lot of space.
The box is surprisingly big but as seen in the photo I can use it as bookend. :).

Uhum.
In case there's anyone interested, I've just released the second chapter of [URL="https://archiveofourown.org/works/21690004/chapters/52289302#workskin"]that cossover DCU/Skyrim fanfic.[/URL] It's taken a while, and the funniest thing is, I wrote half of it this very same evening. Right now, I have no idea how I'm going to go with the next chapter, so it will take two weeks or so, most probably. Maybe more.

You know, its posts like these that make me want a more slice of comic series where the characters have simpler moments together. The characters out of costume (or just getting home) and having say, sitcom hijinks happen. JL8 being a prime example of something like that (though focusing more on the next generations, and actually done by DC).

It's not the same but...
Have you read "Justice League International"? The book from 1987, I mean. It's still superhero adventures, still not slice of life; but it's pretty lighthearted and, if memory serves me right, has a lot of those "simpler moments". I got to read it by chance years ago and had a lot of fun.

I hope they release the preview for issue #41 a little early (as they sometimes do) considering the extra week of waiting.

I’m curious since the year is almost done what do you consider Jason’s best moments of this year ?
[QUOTE=AmiMizuno;4749483]I’m curious since the year is almost done what do you consider Jason’s best moments of this year ?[/QUOTE]
I guess, in issue 32 of RHATO, when he has a face to face with Bruce as Batman again. Issue 33 too, the whole issue was very nice. And this is hard to me to say, but that issue in Bendis' Leviathan that has him running from Batman's team and he manages to escape without much trouble.

Other stuff I liked:
The appearances of New52 characters like Suzie Su, Essence and Isabel in general
More information about Solitary and Jason's dad (although I still need more information)
The return of Ma Gunn, Bizarro and Artemis
The appearances of Bunker, Shay Veritas and Doomed
More Prince of Gotham references
Jason being legally alive again
Jason's depiction in "Harley Quinn: Villain of the Year"
Curran Walters as Jason Todd in "Titans", season 2
Jason successfully escaping in "Event Leviathan"
Jason [B]not[/B] being part of Tom King's awful Batman run
Alfred defending Jason in Teen Titans Annual #1
Yasmine Putri's variant covers
Kenneth Rocafort drawing three issues
Oh, I can agree with a lot of @Sergard highlight moments, too. Yep. That's a nice list.
