Go ahead, G! Share away
Seriously, DC... Why do you keep doing this? And, oh boy! People are mad about the psychological profiles. Especially Booster Gold. Poser Syndrome? What...?
I gotta admit, as General Practice Intern, these fake psych profiles are fascinating. It's like watching a fanfic writer trying to write a doctor's report. I'll give them that.

Haha yeah I thought you'd at least get some laugh from them.
[Off topic]
I'm not even remotely informed about how these reports are done, and I feel like they try too hard to sound deep, and they sound artsy. But, eh, I'm not offended by it.
Now then, I usually am offended by how libraries and librarians are shown in fiction. It never not annoys me. And I am also a historian and I know how archaeologists really work, and don't even get mad, ever, about it. Because **** yeah, Indiana Jones. But, libraries... Man, do fictional libraries and librarians usually make me crazy angry (and not in a fun way. But, hey, you can have fun at me being mad! xD).

Anyways, back to Jason. Back from the beginning of the Rebirth run.
Usually? Dark, chaotic labyrinths that are very, very dirty. Same for the Archives. A pile of books (or documents) without an aim, a collection of books that are there just to be kept and unused; just preserved. Which is the antithesis of what a modern library should be. They should be there to provide information to their users, updated information, in organized and easy to navigate, clean, open and well illuminated spaces that also can serve for other purposes (like relaxing yourself reading a newspaper, or playing your NDS with headphones, or whatever).
And librarians? Unfriendly people who like to play the mysterious all-known intellectuals that behave like they're all above all, or either oddballs who are savant geniuses hard to follow and absolutely crazy. But see, librarians are expected to be more than anything an aid to the users of the library, who, over all, help them locate what they need, where the info they would like to find is (sometimes that info isn't even in that library, and the librarian has to lead the user to outsider collections), or even figuring out what info they actually need (sometimes we all need help focusing out research into certain topics). Because all that information in all those books, journals, videos, etc. have to be feed, and all those items (books, etc) are meant to be used. Besides, not even the best librarian in the world could know everything that is inside those books, or is a multidisciplinary expert who knows better than anyone.
I mean, there are lots of good portrayals of libraries and librarians in fiction, but, eh, each time I came across one of these not good ones (and there are a lot too. Maybe not as many; I take back my words: it's not "usually"), I end up a bit mad.
(Don't be sorry, @G-Pots. This is an interesting off topic )
Soooo, back to Jason and the batfam, and DC Nation #4. If this is indeed an intended isolation of its members, does that mean that we will not get any kind of apparition in the next months? I was expecting for someone of the family to show up in #27, honestly.

CONGRATULATIONS for the 900th page Jason.

Finally i read the last 2 issues of Red Hood and the Outlaws, they were pretty good, didn't expect that Jason would actually kill Oswald but it happened (he is probably in a coma instead or death to be honest), the reunion and godbye of the new Outlaws was great (the kiss was nice too ), you can really feel the lost of Jason here. Bruce was brutal in this issue, his behavior was just crappy here, but i can't say that i'm surprised is how he has been for the last 2 decades about killing, not sure how Lodbell is going to pacth this relationship (i also want to see Dick and Tim reaction to this), didn't expect the reveal about Ma Gunn, to be honest i don't know what to feel about it, hopefully Scott delivers because rigth now i'm not seeing much potential in the change.
