Jason Todd: Robin, Arkham Knight, Red Hood Appreciation 2018

[Aahz]

Yeah and then in most continuity revisions always end up dropping his studies before he becomes Nigthwing.

And? Jason never even went to collage.

The thing is Jason is canonically much smarter than most fans and writers give him credit for, but at least when you go back to Dicks original run as Robin it was quite similar.

But now with Damian, Tim and all the other super geniuses, thats mostly down played.

I do guess the genius aspect means little cause everyone is the family is intelligent. I think it was the Red Robin writer who pointed out that they are intelligent in different ways. Which is good. Dick dropping out doesn't make him less of a hard worker or less smart than Jason. He just wasn't interested in pursuing a traditional education.

Did he even finish high school?

He couldn't because he would've been dead right?

By the same reason he didn`t graduated from Highschool, he was killed.

The difference remains that narratively speaking Jason saw his studies outside of his tutelage under Bruce every bit as essential or sometimes even more important than being Robin. That`s how big a gap lies between what fandom and some writers would led you to believe and how he used to be written and that use of narrative is something the others hardly had.

As far as being played down, maybe more than it used to be but that`s exactly the essence of what Dick said about him in the Annual.

This makes me so hyped and then I remember SS will be in there...

[Dark_Tzitzimine]

That is actually a reflection on a boomerang.

[Aioros22]

Image looking small, is that Jason in the reflection?

Ooh I've never seen this. Really wish Jason gets to play in Lantern sandbox one day.

Yes, Jason in chains.

He looks like he's minutes away from getting out of those chains to be honest.
