I can't express how much I love JJMK's art. New artwork:
From BC's review of HiC #9
Aw crap.And the headshots expand across the DC Universe, the final issue especially scattering the testimonials of all the different Robins who seem to be obsessed with how people see everyone else who is a Robin
Is that true?

If true, that would be awesome. Though it would beg the question; what version of the Outlaws would it be? And would Jason be resurrected, or not?
I do recall something like that. Not so clear, but he definitely said that people definitely liked Jason (but I think he was talking about the people involved in the series, not the audience. Who we know liked him fine enough by how the reviews were written, I guess). And a few months before, there was a strong rumour flowing throughout the net about them thinking about a Red Hood, more or less towards when there was the more-than-just-a-rumour-then Swamp Thing series.
Ugh, I hate when they segment the Robins like that. It is always badly written. Dick has 80 years of comic history and to try and boil it down to "the funny one" or "the athletic one" is so grating. Even Jason has probably been more comedic for long stretches beyond just being "the angry/rebellious one", especially under Lobdell. I've never seen it written well when a writer tries to force these basic descriptors on them like that.
The thing with "the funny one" makes me sometimes wonder if those guys have read totally different Nightwing comics than I. Or if they are just doing their research about the characters on tumblr.
King is anyway an author where I'm each time happy when Jason does not appear in his book.
Yep, that's my guess. I cannot blaem them, though; it really sounded like they wanted to do something with Jason, but I think what we will get in the end is what we already know: that Jason will have a prominent role in the next season. I wonder if we will see afterwards that, even if Titans doesn't survive pass season 2 (unlikely, but you never know), with his own show.
In any case, I guess it's more than confirmed that Jones likes the character in some way (even if he may picture him a more dangerous than he already is in whatever comes from him). And then, look at what he has done with Billy too: I'm going to guess he has sort of a soft spot, for the less fortunate children.
