Do they not get tired of rehashing the same shit, especially with this weird portrayal of Jason during his Robin days.
Also, how are there still not news about the Martinbrough series? Three possibilities:
1. It got delayed (most likely).
2. It's being retooled as an ongoing (lol, right).
3. It's getting canned.
Well, I'd say they should have kept it if the alternative was the MK thing :P It looks very stylized and simple, yet identifiable. Also easy to cosplay, if they wanted that..
Like, the MK outfit isn't awful. In isolation I actually like it. But man, is it worse than most of his other outfits, feels artificial despite its simplicity and is just... tired. At least the Joker book's artist draws it really well and looks cool there. I like his Jason, as well.
As for the Three Jokers getup, I did like it a lot, but lot of it was due to Fabok's amazing art (his Jason is one of my favourites by far, too). The Robin shit is too tacky and on the nose, but I genuinely like the leather hoodie a lot and the colour scheme is good.
The foolish hope is that Martinbrough's series gives him a new outfit and that DC will for one stick with it for the foreseeable future.

Hmm, are we sure this was the work of the 'sword of sin' and not the 'sword of saying heinous crap to your kid'?
For real though, I haven't read any issues, but I've seen plenty of panels on twitter so far, and not a single one of them has convinced me there's anything remotely 'good' in this book.
This was an easy skip.
A writer treating Jason like dirt? That's not even remotely shocking, at this point that's the rule at DC not the exception.
What's actually surprising is that Waid couldn't get ANY of the Robins right, not even Dick, the one getting great writing over at Worlds Finest.
Not just the jacket, but the whole Rebirth suit, exposed wrists and all, it's truly the best.
Another great thing about this outfit is that where as some of Jasons other outfits can look goofy or lame depending on the artist, this one looks good every time.
My only dilemma for designs is that, I love Jason with a black jacket as well, but I feel like I've come to associate him with the brown one more. The brown, grey/black, and red colour scheme just looks so great.
