Zaresh, I noticed your tag line about not sleeping and was concerned. Is there an insomnia problem? (if I'm not being too personal).

Zaresh, I noticed your tag line about not sleeping and was concerned. Is there an insomnia problem? (if I'm not being too personal).

It's not too personal.

I've always been nocturnal, but yes, I also have some imsomnia problems. Always has had, since I was a kid (since I was a baby really). Only way to make me sleep fast once I'm in my bed is if I'm physically or mentally tired. I do sleep well when I have a job or a full schedue of activities each day, so this problem disappears when I have a job. If not, I always get distracted, need to do something, like reading. I have a hard time stopping thinking. Not a healthy routine, but I've seem worse.

That said, once I finally find my way to the dreamlands, I sleep for seven or eight hours just fine if I'm allowed and don't have to wake up at some given time. But I remember passing my training as teacher a few years ago with 3-4 hours 4 out of the 7 days of a week. I still find it incredible that I could teach those kids, and good enough to be granted some prise from my professors.

Jason has the BEST fan-art!!!!!!!!

That he does.

Red Hood: Outlaw #32 variant?

Shane Davis: Last cover I did with #markchiarello he said he needed 3 things, penguin, a casino, and #Redhood. I sent back one rough and said I couldn't think of anything more clever. He laughed, and said he loved it.

Red Hood: Outlaw #32 variant?

I certainly hope so, it looks great

Also, Sergard, thank you for doing such a wonderful job on building and maintaining the first (main) post for the appreciation thread with all the info, quotes and even updates on Jasons appearances in upcoming comics, it's fantastic.

Also, just for clarification, for the Robin Jason 'book club' are reviews and opinions meant to be posted for this upcoming Saturday, which is the 2nd of Feb I believe?

Remember the batfamily multi part statue? Looks like Jason got his rebirth outfit in it.

I hope so too. (The cover actually reminds me a little bit of one of the boss fights in "Cuphead")

Thank you (Although Zaresh has done more work than I did)

You can already post your review/opinion. Batman #357 is scheduled for 26th of Jan. I just hadn't had the time yet to post my own opinion on the issue.

Looks like it to me. Matches really well with #32's regular cover!

On a separate note: a story recently popped up on ao3 and I think it's got an interesting start. Jim Gordon finds a revived and catatonic Jason Todd out on the streets.

I've seen that fanfic and just read it. The start is indeed interesting. I'm always in favor of a Jim Gordon who knows Batman's identity but who prefers to stay in denial.
And fanfics about catatonic Jason returning to the family peak my interest anyway.

Heh, if that's the variant, it sure is a nice coincidence that Jason is in similar situations in both covers for the #32 then. I wonder what the pitch for the variant in #33 was.

Looking cool. I think I like it more than the preview pic? I think. It has been a while, but I think I like it more now.

Thank you (Although Zaresh has done more work than I did)

Not really, @Serg. Just looking for the quotes and placing and organizing all that info is as much as I do with my lists. And then, you update the post always, every day, and make those awesome charts and the new topic for the reading club (which you also will update). I'm pretty sure you're the one who does more work .
And now that I think about it, it's clear that here, we all are a very tidy bumch of fans to me.

They make a good pair.

So many good fanarts. And I bet this is a good thing for the books. With how much interest is being showed, and many pieces are being posted, more new readers are going to be interested in buying the books, eventually.

(What the heck. I cannot post more that 6 images, INCLUDING smilies? That's a bit too much)

I could imagine that Jason gets rid of his current costume in #33. The last time we had a variant cover with death theme was for #26. Back then Jason got his new outfit.
Further, looking at the standard cover of #33, Jason is using the mask part for his crime boss look. And judging by the solicitation, he wants people to believe that the new crime boss in town and Red Hood are two different persons. So he can't use the mask as Red Hood anymore. Maybe he goes back to the helmet and leather jacket. It would make sense because the current outfit is good for traveling (light weight, can be turned into a "normal" outfit by removing the mask) but in Gotham you need more protection.

It's a lot of work to make all those fanfic recommendations and to update them. You try to stay as objective as possible and you give a good overview what people have to expect in each fanfic. That's way more work than copying some quotes. It seems we have to agree to disagree who does more work. And yes, people in this thread are great. I love the positive atmosphere here. And that's the most important thing about being a fan of a character - to have fun. Having fun with other fans is even better.

So many good fanarts. And I bet this is a good thing for the books. With how much interest is being showed, and many pieces are being posted, more new readers are going to be interested in buying the books, eventually.

I think so too. High activity in the fanart and fanfic scene is always a good indicator that a title does well and helps to attract new fans. It also shows the company what fans like about a character or which changes in story are welcomed - at least sometimes, like the upcoming change in Jason's look. On the other hand, I've seen many positive comments about Ma Gunn being Jason's grandmother and the kiss between Jason and Artemis, but there aren't any/not a lot of fanfics/fanarts that address these topics.
