Thatīs it. No unnecessary details.
Thatīs it. No unnecessary details.
Friends? Artemis, Biz, and Su Sisters.
Villains? Joker, Untitled, (sometimes) Bruce.
Love Interests? That's a tricky one. Half the girls he's been with he's had a semi-antagonistic relationship with (Rose, Essence, etc). The others, float between friends and LIs (Isabella, Artemis, and flirted with Babs and Supergirl).
IMO
Best Friend - Artemis
Biggest Enemy - Joker
Top Love Interest - ??? (none honestly stand out)
"So you've come to the end now alive but dead inside."
I liked him being friends with Trucker hat Roy

Man, what a brutal takedown
It's the Dynamic Duo! Batman and Robin!... and Red Robin and Red Hood and Nightwing and Batwoman and Batgirl and Orphan and Spoiler and Bluebird and Lark and Gotham Girl and Talon and Batwing and Huntress and Azreal and Flamebird and Batcow?
Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.
-Dick Grayson (Batman Inc.)
Definitely the majority won't agree, but I always liked what Jason had going on before the end of Post-Crisis DCU. During his time with Challengers from Beyond, he seemed to be friendly with both Harley Quinn & Holly Robinson and had a (possible?) love interest in Donna Troy.
Best friends? Artemis & Biz
Best love interest? Isabel by default since the rest happened either off screen (Essence, Rose) or aren’t official (Artemis)
Best Villains? The Untitled & Black Mask
I think there was some potential there but unfortunately didn’t feel it was executed particularly well. Wouldn’t mind some of the Challengers from Beyond stuff to be revisited and expanded upon in the current DC stuff though.
The Roy friendship works on the basis that their both considered fuck ups by their mentors but yeah, it needs more focus
I guess that explains the reason Countdown's ending wasn't "the best". But thanks for the warning, I'll be sure to avoid Morrison's Final Crisis.
I mean, can you blame him?
After all the crap he's had to put up with, stuff like that can change one's perspective.
When you read Dickbats, that character, that one? He wasn't Jason. At all. Personality wise, behaviour wise, looks wise too. There're people accusing Morrison's Dick to be out of character. Jason was straight a different one, different from Under the Hood''s Winnick's Jason (who showed up briefly later on, as far as I recall), different from half-way to redemption Countdown's Jason (who was more like our current one). Definitely even different Morrison's own N52 Jason.
I mean, I love that run of Batman, it was a very fun read (that I've got to read a lot of time after it was published time thanks to being away from DC's mainstream line for that period); but I found myself thinking "This man isn't Jason Todd". I probably benefited by having had read that whole period in a non-stop rush.
Best ship is Jason and crowbar.
