I didn’t know Jason had fans?

An underrated gem in the Bat-Mythos; a former marine with a injured leg with a history with Barbara Gordon. Pre-Flashpoint, it was interesting how they were setting him as Batman's investigator during broad daylight.
From DETECTIVE COMICS #491.

There was also that period back in 1977-1978 where Jason Bard was working with Kirk Langstrom . . .
To be continued . . .
Is Francine pregnant there?

Good thread. I like original flavor Jason Bard. There were some good stories with him the 70s.

Yep. Post-COIE, they had a second. I didn't care for that, though, especially what was done later with the family dynamic (and kids' relative ages shifting).
Back to the topic - anyone remember the issue where we found out about his mother's murder?
Oh, and I was thinking - it's been a good while since I read those old 'Tec comics, but did it seem to anyone else that Jason dating Barbara was more of an intro/fade-in for the character to get a spot in the comics (as Barbara left for Washington D.C.) than it was a planned long-term romance? Or maybe I'm misremembering the timing?
Jason bard having more fans here then Harley Quinn here is hilarious
