    There's so much on those few pages that I don't like...

    Cheap melodrama.
    In continuity stuff from Morrison's time that I deeply dislike (the stuff about OoC Jason. The run itself, as far as a whole story goes, I liked it).
    Jason saying ridiculous stuff like that he always betrays the family (what about all those times he didn't? Which are a ton of them, not just a few times).
    All the batfam being idiots.

    Eh... It better goes to a place that's worth the displeasure.

    It's manga inspired. It draws inspiration from 80's/90s sci-fi manga.

    The whole thing is so over the top that I legit laughed.

    And was the Jason/Dick interaction from the outlaws vol 1? Well, Williamson sure did his research....

    Same. This has to be a parody.

    Maybe it's a Batfamily fever dream.

    I'm kind of surprised to see them bringing back Morrison's Jason storyline.

    Well, they "brought back" (so to speak) Sheila in the other book.

    Alas, I guess we're stuck with one of the most OOC storylines for the Batfamily in general being in canon. Jason, Damian, Babs, and probably others, were all pretty badly out of character.

    Urban legends is canon, future state isn't. This is another AU which frankly isn't well written, but at least has a good art.

    everybody better beat his ass. I don't care if he gets his little one two hits in but this many members of the Bat clan, this far in their hero careers with the abilities they're bringing to this fight, should be beating the absolute breaks off Jason dolo. I love Jason but if he does even remotely well I'm gonna be tight.
    THE SIGNAL (Duke Thomas) is DC's secret shonen protagonist so I made him a fandom wiki

    also, check out "The Signal Tape" a Duke Thomas fan project.

    currently following:
    • DC: Red Hood: The Hill
    • Marvel: TBD
    • Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force

    Well, if they're handling it like a "versus" movie, if they all job it's probably part of an "act."
