The delays on the previews are getting irritating.

Oh hey, Jim Starlin talks about Jason's death.

Oh hey, Jim Starlin talks about Jason's death.

Ah, yes. The guy so anti-Robin he wanted to give Jason AIDs.

Oddly enough, that became a thing for a different sidekick down the line, but in a much different context.

WOW!!!

He's not wrong about a brightly outfitted kid next to a batman who blends into the dark being so child endangerment and so wrong on so many levels but than damn. The dude hated the concept that much/

What is with so many creators hating Robin so much? Just last year at con a bunch of batman writers were making fun of the character being easily disposable fodder.

What shocked me the most was the attitude and the decision making process at DC. Explains a lot really.

We want to do a book about Aids here's a suggestion box folks. Cast your vote for who you want to get Aids!

Oh we can make so extra dosh if we did a call in gimmick to kill off a character. Who should we kill?

No wonder so many characters get screwed over and there's no proper coordination. I'm sorry but you'd think that they would put more thought into handling there IPs. These are valuable properties.

Well a bad decision down the line ended up working out for DC. They got Red Hood.A solid and unique character. If Jason hadn't died, he might be suffering the Tim Drake curse today. A "What to do with a you problem".

By dying he not only got then chance for a rebirth but secured his place in Bat mythology meaning that DC can't just erase his tenure like they did with the Robin that came after him. So really it's all WIN for Jason and DC who get to eat their cake and have it.

Man, I'm really hoping the second half of Young Justice expands on this. Because if any character left would make for a good Outsider, it would be Jason. And with the al'Ghuls on the outs with the Light, it kind of brings a few theories to mind.

And while I love the thought of all those Super Babies coming into their own, that won't be for a while yet.

Jason Fabok has posted two panels from Three Jokers.
I still don't know what to expect from the story.

tfw you're basically invulnerable to pretty much everything but your resident bat has to keep throwing themselves in danger for you anyways

There’s a seemingly random reference to RH:O in today’s issue of Catwoman involving Penguin getting some kind of Green Gem/Relic thing from Selina (with * that says catch in Penguin RH:O #32). I doubt anything will come out of it but it seemed random that I figure it’s worth mentioning on the odd chance something does.
