yeah no man it's cool that you don't like the female character for having an insufficient development. yeah even if you adore that male character that appeared in two frames of the show. yeah. yeah. yeah. cool. cool.

To be honest I think that a lot of people who share the anti Jason Todd sentiment don't even actually hate Jason. I think a lot of them hate what he forces the narrative to do.

Jason forces the subversion of the hero genre -- he's the single, most extreme proof that Batman's hero fantasy wouldn't be effective in real life, and therefore Jason showing up can take you out of the universe really fast really hard. A lot of people are here for what comics are meant to offer, the one man hero fantasy that makes you Feel Good, and Jason showing up doesn't Allow you to enjoy it! And if that's the case, you're completely justified in not liking Jason, he takes you out of the thing you enjoy.

I think a lot of you don't actually find his personality or acts annoying in of themselves, you just hate what those actions do to the genre itself. And I think once you realize that and start looking at comics like actual pieces of literature, Jason and shitty comics both will become a lot less rage inducing to you.

RHATO META INTERLUDE: THE LAZARUS PIT

Contrary to what some people might misinform and have their post blow up over the course of seven years, Pit Madness is not a Lobdell invention and you will not, in fact, find it as an excuse for anything Jason does within RHATO 2011. If he goes back on this in Rebirth/2016 that's not my problem rn.

I'm not actually going to go into all the evidence to prove Jason isn't pit mad because proving a lack is harder than proving the existence of it. Just read the first half of issue #2 where he's a twiggy shithead but definitely not "mad" or issue #5 when he tells Ducra why he has to leave because no matter how much he's learned he can't move on from his death.

RHATOv1 2011 #2

Either Talia is lying here about Ra's approval, or it straight up gets retconned later. I'm inclined to believe the latter because my biggest source of amusement with this title is the retcon wars. I have to get my kicks somewhere because the comic itself doesn't provide a lot of good material.

now, there is one incidence where I could understand someone interpreting it as Jason being resurrected in the pit if you read it in a vaccuum:

Theres not really a good reason for issue #0, being Lobdell's full rewrite of Jason's history in order to adapt it to the n52's new timeline, puts Jason still in the suit he was buried in when he's put in the Pit. But, personally I've always just interpreted it as having no memory of his resurrection per this universe.

The ACTUAL first indication that he might have been put in the Pit for his resurrection itself (IN COMICS) comes from Tynion IV's run in Issue #22

we also get to see this event in issue #26

But other than all of this, no there really isn't any mention of Pit Madness throughout all this whatsoever. Other than Winick implying it as a possibility in Lost Days/the movie, it's otherwise a purely fanon take on the concept.

Like... RHATOv1 completely changed the origins and nature of the Pits, so, no, the madness concept did not carry over. I'm half convinced they'd retcon the healing/resurrection stuff if they didn't need it.

ADDENDUM: I have already discussed Lazarus pit Madness as a broad topic (within pre/post Crisis) over HERE.

i have another bomb to throw, girls who hated pink and femininity in childhood were not experiencing internalized misogyny; it was a rejection of the conditioning pushed on us from birth which we never felt passion for and grew resentful towards because of adults’ insistence on us following the rules of being a girl. when you hit middle-high school and get more say in how you look it feels fucking incredible to reject and be openly hostile to the things you were forced to embrace your whole life. you people just don’t know what internalized misogyny is and tumblr choice feminism lied to you

When I say a character has done nothing wrong, I say it with whimsy and humor in my heart. When some of you say it, I fear you truly believe it
