Jason Todd: Robin, Red Hood, Arkham Knight Appreciation 2020

[Digifiend]

I don't think Jason appears in the issue. Since his face picture isn't listed there with the others, but I dunno.

I wonder if it was meant to be Roy or Wally originally there on the cover, but they had to switch them out because Roy is dead and Wally is in a different universe now. Although you figure they would have used Garth if that was the case.

It's alternate universe (all Giants are, except for Batman's which featured Jinny Hex's debut), so they could've used Arsenal or Wally if they wanted to.

Red Hood: Outlaw #43 - finalized cover

You know, one of the things that I like more about these covers is that they look old fashioned, with those ballons. I love them, and they make the book stand out a little. It's charming.

Edit:

If Bizarro and Artemis are back, why hasn't the book gone back to it's original title?

Marketing. It takes some time to change that, and I think this arc is probably be the last one before we have yet another soft-relaunch. Or maybe they will end the run and start to release limited and minis.

Didn't know about the alternative universe thing. Interesting.

Huh, none of those artists listed in the TP worked on those issues.

I'm glad that RED HOOD: OUTLAW #46 isn't a "Joker War" tie-in like Batgirl #47.

I've found another First Look on RH:O #43. Seems like the CBR article from last time is missing the first page.



Little fun fact: When I first saw the high school girls in RH:O #43, I mistook them for a hidden advertisement for Everglade Angels by Scott Lobdell and Blake Northcott. (Everglade Angels is a horror graphic novel about a girls softball team that stumbles into a trap set by a murderous cult.) Funnily enough, Blake Northcott is also mentioned in the May solicitations. She has her DC debut as co-writer on Catwoman #23.

My thoughts exactly. I was looking at the whole set of solicits, and I felt like we fortunately dodged the bullet this time.

@Dark_Tzitzimine thaks.

The time line is still wired. DitF happend after Killing Joke and it is even referenced in the story it self.

And it looks imo to decompressed.

I'm pretty sure those are the pictures we all put together from the low quality scans back then, tough. I mean, I can see spots in XXX where we couldn't tell what was written there. If I recall correctly, the user that did those pics was @Tenzen.

(Edit: Still, thanks for posting them, @Dark--in case I have sounded rude)

[Zaresh]

So I guess we only get one story and no cover for the Robin special. Well, whatever. At least it's Winick with Nguyen, whose art I enjoy a lot.

Unless I counted wrong those creative names from BC.

[Digifiend]

You counted right. They're listed in chronological order by Robin and then era. Four Dick stories, one Jason, two Tim, one Steph, and two Damian, I believe.

Good that Steph gets her own story. I'm happy for her fans. We are lucky with how much attention we're getting for Jason now, but they only have her in YJ, and that book's cast is huge.

So DC are now cool with a Dick Grayson who is pushing 40? Bit of a 180 there.

Everyone else also aged up, Bruce now was born during World War II but because of time-lapse he's only 60
