Chapter 1

Summary: Jason goes on patrol shortly after taking in Tim to make sure the Alley is still in working order. To keep an eye out for the traffickers that had tried to harm the teenager he'd decided was under his care.

What he wasn't looking for was the fucking Batman.

Can be read as a standalone but also follows the story started in Rules.

Excerpt:

“I’m completely trained to be out in the field! You know this, Hood,” Tim ground back. Like this hadn’t been the agreement when he said he wanted Tim to stay.

The real argument originally had been that Tim already had a house. Not that he had any objections to being taken in by a known crime lord especially once he knew said crime lord had, at one point, been the second Robin. Tim Drake’s self-preservation instincts sucked. Jason was working on it.

This was the follow-up argument.

Somehow, there had been little upset about the fact that Jason insisted the kid stay with him. Which wasn’t what he expected, really. Tim was a little jumpy but eager to help his new ‘friend’, a designation Jason had vehemently denied.

“And now going to give me directions and be a menace online an- shut up,” he said, pausing on the roof as he caught sight of Batman. Green.

Oh, that was fun.

Even as Tim continued talking in his ear.

“Don’t you tell me to shut up! I’m-“

“I can see the Bat.”

Relationships: Batfamily Members & Jason Todd

Summary: Jason is used to his body and mind going numb, he’s used to his breath hitching, to his heartbeat slowing down so drastically that he sometimes finds himself sprawled on the freezing tiles, clutching the shirt drenched in cold sweat that’s plastered to his chest, just above his heart, mouth gaping as he regains feeling in his body. “Fine. Just一” he swallows, throat dry, “I’m only staying one night. I’m leaving at dawn.” » Jason reluctantly spends a night at the Manor, omitting some crucial information regarding the Lazarus Pit side effects.

Hi! I've never done this before but I'm new to comics (started with WFA and Zatanna and the Ripper) and I've basically got most of my information from posts on tumblr and r/hobbydrama (including yours.) I think I have a general idea of what Jason Todd is like, but I believe a lot of people are unhappy with his new characterisation.

So, if you were the one in charge, how would you write him? Would you write him with a team or as a solo character? Would you have him use the All-Blades or a crowbar or his guns? Would you have him properly rejoin the batfam or not?

Thanks!

Hi! Welcome to the fandom! I hope you're enjoying your time here.

In general, I think DC (and the fandom) has spent too much time milking Jason's death for trauma porn. They have refused to allow him to find closure, move past that, and exist beyond his daddy issues drama with Bruce. When DC has allowed him to have stories outside of that, they were often written with little consideration for what should be done with Jason beyond making him "badass."

None of this has been conducive to creating any kind of satisfying and coherent narrative or character arc for Jason, especially when both writers and editorial seem more obsessed with stealing traits, relationships, and stories from other people to give to him (most prominently Dick, Selina, and Helena). My hottake is that DC should move beyond "Red Hood" as an identity for Jason entirely, because it drags his character down and keeps him inherently tied to the same problems that have kept his character stagnant for years.

However! I don't think he's unsalvagable. I simply think DC needs to put a decent writer on him and commit to a character direction for more than 2 years at a time. I'm unsure of what Shawn Martinbrough is currently doing with Jason in his The Hill arc, as I'm not reading it, but I've heard that there might be some forward momentum finally happening there?

Anyway, my personal conception of Jason's future (as lovingly brainstormed by me and my friends in our comics discord server) is effectively this: he becomes a street-level paranormal detective who solves cold murder cases by talking with the victims' ghosts and providing closure to restless spirits. Think Lockwood and Co. meets Pushing Daisies with a superhero twist; basically, a supernatural detective noir book.

There's a lot of concepts and lore drops tied into this idea, but basically it was born out of a discussion where I was talking about Jason's many connections with the supernatural and occult across all continuities and how it's kind of a mystery why DC hasn't just formally connected him to the mystical side of the DCU. So I was like "they should just reveal that Superboy-Prime’s reality punch resurrection left him LITERALLY undead, make the event where he finds this out also spark his ability to see and communicate with ghosts, and make him an occult detective. Let him close cold case murder files and put those spectres to rest."

Which is also a great premise for a Bat book and a great unfilled niche for a Batfamily member. Kate's supernatural stories are much more high concept and connected to her family drama. Damian's supernatural/occult connections are traditionally very heavily tied to his family history and the Lazarus Pits. Dick's semi-regular magic encounters are usually stuff he deals with alongside his teammates in the course of working with the Titans. None of the other Bats have enough regular encounters with the supernatural and magic side of the DCU for it to encroach on their shtick, and a Gotham-based supernatural book is well within DC's ability to publish and market given books like Gotham by Midnight.

In terms of how that direction affects all the other questions you asked...I think Jason's relationship with the rest of the Batfam should be complicated. I personally don't think "good/bad relationship with the Batfam" is a particularly useful way to look at it because I think there are people he should never see eye to eye with, people he realistically shouldn't and doesn't have a problem with, and people he should get along with just fine. I don't think everyone needs to or should be friends or enemies with him, but his morals and past actions will (and should!) complicate those relationships in interesting ways.

And re: what weapons I'd like to see him use...using the All-Blades would certainly factor into my proposed narrative direction, as that would lean into the supernatural connections, but I generally prefer the concept of Jason using knives as his preferred weapon over guns/a crowbar/etc. That way he can still be a marksman without using guns, and I think that fits more with his character trajectory as someone attempting to be less lethal but also has no problem roughing people up when he thinks they need to be.

Jason Todd Week 2025 !!!

totally forgot to do this yesterday so I'll slap both in here!

https://archiveofourown.org/works/61287277

DAY ONE: time travel / Batmobile Tires

Relationships: Jason Todd & Bruce Wayne, Jason Todd & Jason Todd

Characters; Jason Todd, Bruce Wayne

Additional Tags: Young Jason Todd, Jason Todd is Red Hood, Jason Todd is Robin, it'll make sense I promise, Time Travel, Shenanigans, A little bit of, angst, Jason Todd is a Menace, Bruce Wayne is Good With Kids, Jason Todd Steals the Batmobile Tires, but he needs motivation!, Jason Todd Week 2025, Fluff, Crack, idk pal

Description:

A small slip of a thing drifts into the alley, tiny and minuscule from his perch on the roof. The red hoodie dwarfs the kid, making him seem that much smaller and weaker than he is. From the side of his pants, the kid draws out a tire iron and crouches by the edge of the Batmobile, looking around furtively to make sure he’s alone. He even chances a look up but Jason’s been in the game for too long to let some scrawny kid see him. He can feel the anxiety pouring off him in waves, mostly because a phantom of it has spurted in his gut and is clawing through his windpipe upwards. There’s no way. Not tonight, not this day, the fates would be too cruel.

After a moment, the kid starts to steal the tires of the Batmobile.

DAY TWO: chronic pain

Relationships: Jason Todd & Bruce Wayne, Jason Todd & Damian Wayne

Characters: Jason Todd, Bruce Wayne, Damian Wayne, Tim Drake, Alfred Pennyworth, Background and Cameo Characters

Additional Tags: Angst, Chronic Pain, Disabilities, Life Altering Events Occur, Lazarus Pit Side Effects (DCU), but - Freeform, Like, The Opposite, Jason Todd has a Service Dog, His Name is Buttons, Self-Hatred, Complicated Relationships, Hopeful Ending

Description:

“Jay, I–”

“Please don’t. Just leave me alone.”

Bruce sighs. He’s got his eyes closed, like it physically pains him to even look at Jason. Like he’s this broken, mangled version of himself and not what he’s already been, just as broken and just as warped. His disguise has only been wiped away now, washed with the rain and leaving the scraps of his paint streaking across the ground like an ugly oil spill. Jason’s always been this disfigured, this broken, and it’s about time his body started looking like it.

[artbyblastweave]

I was thinking the other day that Red Hood is a compelling character but inherently an extremely high context one. It's really obvious that he's a character who required the two-decades and change of publication history, editorial evolution and fandom debate that it took for him to bake. Red hood presupposes, bare minimum:

that there's an established Batman/Joker rivalry that's been going for a while

That Batman has gotten past the year-one section of his career and brought at least one Robin into the fold

That after the crowbar incident Batman has continued to operate as Batman for a significant amount of time

That the version of the DCU you're looking at includes some method of resurrection, be that the Lazarus Pit or the retcon punch

Ideally, you'd have Dick Grayson as Robin first, because you obviously lose a lot of the crunch if Jason doesn't exist uncomfortably in Dick's shadow prior to his death, but if you had an executive breathing down your neck about how the narrative has too many moving parts you could maybe drop this

On top of all this the story arc also presupposes audience familiarity with the out-of-universe debate about the no-kill rule, and moreover it presupposes that the version of Joker you're looking is specifically awful enough that there's an actual utilitarian argument in favor of breaking the no-kill rule- Can't do Under the Red Hood with Ceaser Romero's take on the character. You may or may not have had time to establish his track record.

Oh, yeah, and it's gotta be a version of the continuity where the censors let you kill people on screen! Nearly forgot that. I recall thinking that despite the obvious scramble to introduce all the priors, Under The Red Hood was remarkably effective for being able to import everything it needed to create the sense of time, place and progression of Batman's character, the very specific point in his development where you need to catch him for Red Hood to make any sense. By contrast I remember thinking that the half-hearted attempt to backport Red Hood into the DCAU in the comics-IIRC he actually post-dates that continuity- was just very obviously doomed, like come on, you're trying to cram a third robin into an established timeline? You already made a decision to hopscotch him when you went right from Dick to Tim, no backsies! There are other characters I bucket like this, characters who I think have some there-there, but are immensely high-context in a way that seems tough to negotiate in an adaptation. Miles Morales is one, and I was amazed at how gracefully the Spider-verse films navigated that, how gracefully something with a four-or-five hour runtime integrated the broader concept of continuity lockout/creep/what-have you into the story. Power Girl is another, and they've never really figured out how to integrate her as far as I'm aware- Galatea in JLU being the closest I know of. I have no doubt that if I were more familiar with the Teen Titans side of things I could start rattling off ancillary characters from that space. I don't have anywhere in particular I was going with this, I just think about this category of character a lot.

Excerpt:

“So…. About Robin and-“

“Kid, I can’t just let you go back to Batman. You shouldn’t be fighting his war,” Jason said, fighting to keep his voice calm. “It’s not your fight.”

“I chose this!”

“You are a child! You can’t choose to fight a grown man’s battles, and he shouldn’t have let you try!”

That was the thing he had learned in his short life. His short death. That Batman never should have let them try to fight his fight, or some variation there of. They were children. Not soldiers.

His hands slammed down on the table before he thought about it, standing up. Making himself bigger even without thinking about it. Still itching for a better fight than what he’d gotten after running into Batman. Something he would not allow himself to have here either.

And Tim’s glare was on him, fists clenched at his side, on his feet not a moment later across from him. Hard to believe a few days ago that he had been in shock on his couch asking if he was dead. “He didn’t let me try. I forced him. I blackmailed him, Jason, because he was trying to commit suicide from working himself to death after he lost you! And I stopped him because no one else could! Because Dick wouldn’t come back from Bludhaven to be Robin, and Batman needs a Robin! Needed someone!”

Dust. That’s all there was for a moment. All he could feel, smell, see, taste even. It was weird that someone could do that to another person with the snap of a finger. But the weirdness of the situation was the least of Peter’s problems. Because in about ten seconds, there was no more dust, not within his reach at least. He seemed to be floating in something very very cold. As soon as he opened his eyes it burned and all he could see was a sickeningly bright shade of green and a few rising air bubbles here and there. Air bubbles? So he was underwater. Peter suddenly became aware of the viscous liquid filling his lungs and began to rapidly swim upward.

OR: Peter Parker gets snapped out of his universe and into Gotham City where he meets a group of vigilantes who help him carve out a new home inside their own. AKA I loveeee found family so now you get so so much of it.
