Between this and the movie feature, very exciting.

I might not get this monthly but I think I would for sure get this in trade.

I'm getting this because I like Winicks depiction of Todd, he seems to get the character.

I agree. I like what he's done with the character of Jason Todd even though I wish he had never come back. Winnick makes him interesting.

I'm really looking forward to this. I'm a big Judd Winick fan, and frankly, I think he's the only writer who knows how to write Jason Todd.

Considering that he's mostly written him I could see why. I think he's always had a plan for the character and hopefully we'll see more of that in this mini-series.

I just hope when this mini is over that someone will pick up right where he leaves off with this interpetation of Jason into future stories. I hate how he ended up in Batman and Robin.

Eh. I didn't care one way or the other. It's probably because overall I don't care about the character of Jason Todd. I'll be interested though in seeing what happens with the character of Jason Todd at the end of this mini-series.

I did too. I know that comes as no surprise to most since I'm not a Morrison fan, but I really thought he frakked him up.

I really hope they retcon his hair back to being black. That was such a stupid little thing in B&R, and I think he looks ridiculous with red hair.

I thought this was going to be another Fables mini. Shucks.

No offense to fans of Jason Todd.

maybe he can pass as Bigbys little brother.

Since I haven't even read the original return, I'll trade wait this. June is already a big month.

Don't see it. Heh.

But, Jason originally had strawberry blonde hair. Making it black was the retcon!

I liked that Morrison went back to how it originally was. Bruce forcing Jason to dye it black to be more like Dick just adds another layer that fleshes out his hate.

Out of all three finished arcs, The Red Mask arc was my least favorite of all so far. After reading Battle For the Cowl mini and Todd's portrayl there, just seemed more of a dissapointing arc imho.

Well, everything I read of him prior to Morrison's stuff he had black hair and I prefer it. So I wan them to retcon back to the original retcon.

I kind of like Jason having red hair. It adds to his downfall in that Batman went out of his way to make him like Dick Grayson so nobody would know that there was a new Robin. It's kind of interesting.

So he's like the Paul McCartney of Batman?

I wouldn't mind him having red hair so much if it didn't make him look like frakkin' Carrot Top (without the curls). If it was super dark red hair I'd be fine with it. He just doesn't look menacing with the red hair as is.
