Yeah the fight was a little tough to follow. It looked like he caught an arrow from Green Arrow with his run barrel and then later fired his gun to shoot the arrow at point blank range at Plastic Man. I guess we are supposed to assume it was some trick arrow that was able to stop him.
Having followed the character, since he rather intrigues me, I can confidently say the latter is more accurate than simply "crazy villain". It's actually a good analogy with UtRH Jason, too. And yes, I do feel time constraints did rush things along such that points that needed to be made and reached were done so faster then they could be grown. But such is the nature of things, sometimes.
Also, yeah. It's doubtful August will see the light of day anywhere else while Williamson still has his story to tell. It'd help if he was elsewhere, though, in my opinion, just so that he doesn't risk vanishing if or should Williamson does from The Flash before he can tell his stories. Him appearing here is just wishful thinking on my part, though.
Thanks!
Well, I guess some of this looks right? The mechanic thing? That's fanon from the Earth-27 concept; they kinda completely changed Duke's character, excising his connection to Bruce and Batman. (Also, Wallace is the one with the mechanic prowess.)
They do note Aisi and Gnomon, though, which is good.

Wow, Leviathan#3 was pretty bad. Another issue wasted where the plot doesn't move forward and everyone acts out of character. Jason didn't got chumped but being turned into Identity Crisis' Deathstroke is not better.
I really don't get why they thing that such a low pacing is acceptable in big event storylines.
Honestly, the art is not very good for this kind of story either. Its just the wrong amount of detail, particularly for action scenes.
And Bendis still proves he can write entire issues, filled with dialogue, but somehow NOT advance the plot at all.
And who is this imposter posing as Damian?
Haha this issue. I don't understand most of what everyone says or does.
What Deathstroke did was way more ridiculous then what Jason did here, and it was also way more awesome since you could actually understand what was going on in that fight.
In the fight in Event leviathan Jason accuracy with the guns, and when redirecting the Arrow seems kind of over the top, but you see Bruce, Dick and Damian do stuff like that quite often, so it is believable for me that he can pull that of.
Manhunter is not really a highly trained fighter, so that Jason can take her in an one-on-one fight is also plausible.
Green Arrow shoots only two arrows at him, and one seems actually to do what it was supposed to do and to block Jason's gun. And we have seen Jason already pre crisis doing well in fight against the (imo more capable) post OYL Grren Arrow.
In the Fight with Batman and Robin you can't tell what is going on, but it looked more like Jason somehow got away that he actually beat them in Hand to hand combat.
Only the Plastic Man thing doesn't really make sense for me, since that guy is basically invulnerable to martial arts, guns and falling from building. And could imo easily taken Jason down, if his powers had been used properly.
So do y’all think Jason is done with Event: Leviathan or will he continue to pop up in the last 3 issues.
