IT IS JASON!

DARN.
I hope he gets back to draw Jason in some other book at some point this new year.

That's why I wanted a solo book for Jason so much. As much as I love the dynamics between the Outlaws of both series, it's hard to have Jason stay in his element and do what he does best when the team has some serious powerhouses. Even Roy was often much more effective than Jason with his inventions.

This current direction on the other hand is constantly showing us a capable Jason. But, some critics are already missing the team interactions and heartfelt moments. I'm fine with it. I think those moments will come very soon, and if not, well you gain some you lose some. In the end each series will contribute to the bigger picture that is Jason's character exploration and development. I have to give it to Lobdell though. He's been on the books for years and still manages to make it fresh with ideas.

This is why I like those shifts. It helps in making the character grow and adding him some more history, and it helps us see more how he is under different dynamics and situations.

I feel personally attacked that Arkham Knight isn't on the title....

Anyway, congratulations on the new thread, guys! I catch up with RH and decided to reread 21-29 which improved the current arc so much and made realize how unfair to judge a story before it finished (I have to give it to Lobdell for all hints he left here and there). So, from now on I'm not going to comment on single issue and instead wait for the arc to finish to get the whole picture before I give my thoughts.

See you guys on February!

I think it seems quite a few people here want 'Arkham Knight' in the title

Final decisions, to make room as Sergard mentioned, should 'Damned Prince of Gotham' be shortened to 'Damned Prince' or 'Prince of Gotham'?

I think Prince of Gotham looks better, but what do you guys think?

I'm just a tiny little bit partial to the first one. Happy with either.

Hoo that's a very demonic take. Cool!

[Sergard]

Theoretically we could also shorten "appreciation" to "app" or "appr'n" or something similar instead.

That sounds like the wiser choice. App. should be enough. I mean, you cannot mistake it for some new, awesome application named Jason Todd, right?

[G-Potion]

Thanks for the work on thread opener @Sergard. It's coming along nicely!

It's a no from me, app makes it sound like a download for my phone, XD 'appreciation' just has a nicer ring to it.

Me and Rise, both like Prince of Gotham

G is slightly more partial to 'Damned Prince' but is fine with 'Prince of Gotham' as well

And I believe Zaresh was neutral to both.

So if Jason's going business entrepreneur, what do you guys think can be his possible brand names?

(@Zaresh he'd better have an app for his business :P)

[Sergard]

Thanks for the work on thread opener @Sergard. It's coming along nicely!

My pleasure Although, so far, Zaresh did the most work by writing the introduction. I'm only copy-pasting stuff. (I hope I will be more helpful on the weekend when I have more free time.)

Yeah, it's looking great actually :3.

On a side note, when I was re-reading the op text, I found that I lost an "s" in the way.

as much as he despise others

... should be:

as much as he despises others

Now, on the recommended reads, my candidates:

• As Robin:
• Batman: The Cult (post-COIE].
• A Death in the Family (post-COIE]
  
  As Red Hood:
• Batman: Under the Hood (pre-FP)
• Red Hood: Lost Days (pre-FP)
• Red Hood and the Outlaws vol. 1 and 2 (New 52)
• Red Hood and the Outlaws vol. 1 to 4 (Rebirth]
  
  Other Media:
• Batman: Under the Red Hood (animation movie)
• Batman: Arkham Knight (videogame)

I don't know about pre-COIE comics a lot, and I would love to add more stuff besides something from then, but I don't feel confident about. So as before, feel free to add and subtract as you feel.

[Zaresh]

Yep, like @RedBird says, I don't mind either way about the name.

So if Jason's going business entrepreneur, what do you guys think can be his possible brand names?

(@Zaresh he'd better have an app for his business :P)

You know, I wonder if we will see that henchmen app again when Jason comes back to Gotham to make Penguin more miserable.

Edit: Names, names... What about "Big Bad Wolf"?

Hey, thanks! But really, it's looking really good. It already looked really good before we added that text.
