DC has always had a penchant for some of the darker things in life. However, it can be argued that they give DC Universe's shows, movies, and comics a depth that many people think can't be given to superhero stories. One such story takes place in Gotham.
Jason Todd stumbled into a life that he never knew he could have. He left his tragic beginnings and managed to succeed Dick Grayson as Robin. Being Batman's sidekick is never an easy task and there is always some new threat forming or old threat reviving in Gotham. He was an extremely capable hero and in more than just one way, the perfect Robin to Bruce Wayne's Batman. Their pairing gave rise to a brilliant crime-fighting duo that Gotham desperately needed. However, things went horribly wrong for Jason Todd and he turned from Robin into Red Hood. Want to know this story of the good guy gone bad? Keep watching!

He has a pathos that transcends his context. The way reality cynically struck him down, his return, and how he lives with the undeserved cruelty inflicted upon him. He is closer to all of us, humans living now. We all have good intentions but the world always wins against our will. Instead of falling into nihilism, like the Joker, Jason finds an answer in fighting that cruelty on terms that are true to him. Batman and the world around him disdain Redhoods methods, yet he preserves regardless.

The idea of Jason Todd taking the previous identity of the Joker for himself was an incredibly brilliant idea. Both events (Joker's birth and Robin's death) were tragic for Batman's character history and Jason merging them into one was the right call from DC Comics. Back then, the Red Hood mantle was only acknowledged because of it's ties to the Joker's past and Jason Todd remade it into a symbol of brutality, rebellion, and strength.

@dafilmqueen556 7 ай бұрын

Unfortunately, Jensen is 45. He's older than Jason's measly 19-20 years of age, is married, and has 3 children of his own to boot. At this point, for Jensen to work once again as Red Hood, he'd have to either be Red Hood in the Batman Beyond universe or appear in a multiverse movie where he's likely interacting with other versions of Red Hood. Imagine the drama of the Robins (former and current) mistaking him for Batman (the double Red Hood/Batman reference is something I believe will never get old 😊). That would be a hard time for him to shake off 😂..

Stop comparing him to the Punisher. He isn't a mindless killer. That would be Batman. He's the Punisher. Red Hood is smarter and more heroic than him, even when he is an awful person to his brothers. Trust me, look at how badly Batman treats every single one of them, and you'll know that Jason's "villainy" could never compare..
