Jason is the hero that kids from rougher backgrounds can relate to and im here for it. Dude came from the dirt and wants to make things right in his neighborhoods. And hes ultra realistic about it.

[@Nostalg1a]

Exactly, I think comic book writers would be better off writing more realistic and morally ambiguous stories. This tired formula of a hero questioning his moral compass but then being right at the end by following the exact same path and right/wrong dynamic (nothing changed), is, well, tired. We need stuff like the The Authority series again.

@@kraftik5300Batman’s “no kill” rule, I’ve always personally felt, was an ethical code for HIMSELF. He didn’t want to be judge, jury, AND executioner - and he already knows he walks a dark line. It’s not that Bruce believes that there aren’t people who deserve to die, just that it’s not HIS place to be the one to end that. Which is very valid, and probably one of the very few healthy things Bruce does for his mental state lol

[@Chronic_Gainz]

Jason Todd is my favorite DC character. The moment I watched Batman Under the Red Hood when I was a kid I fell love with his character. He’s such a cool character and his place in the Bat Family is so unique among the others as he represents Batman’s failure and what happens if Batman can’t protect the family.

[@kraftik5300]

Jason as Red hood is more like Batman that can deal with someone permanently.Even if people called him Batman's failure he grown to be better hero than Damien would ever be. yeah comparing their robin carrers, Jason was ruthless and was more brutal due his street life before meeting Batman, it was his sacrifice when he tried to save his mom from bomb, which failed and he ended being tortured and killed by joker. Damien was rude and murderous due training from league of assasins yet during his robin years he didn't show any signs of maturity what so ever, cause he was concerened about his ego and being batman's true son.
