Having Anti Punitive Justice Morals Sucks Because You Want To Say "man That Guy Sucks He Should Get Hit

I know I take Jason too seriously but there is just something about like. Being the ultimate image of a voiceless victim: a murdered child. Being something that everyone in the family was able to project their tragedy and beliefs onto, a glass case mirroring their thoughts.

And then to come back, furious and sharp and nothing like the silent grave. To have a voice again and be screaming.

i feel like jason needs to brag to tim about meeting sherlock holmes, i fear tim would never recover

this initially might seem weird if you haven’t read the play but the magnus archives is very comparable to sophocles’ oedipus the king.

jon is obviously oedipus, the detective of the horrific happenings and unaware he is the true victim and cause of suffering. both become cruel and even tyrannical in their paranoia that they’re being plotted against but the audience mostly feels pity. they both find out that they’re being controlled by higher powers and fates, manipulating them all along for their own purpose, which they might have escaped once but played into due to their ignorance. the major themes in common can be seen as sight/knowledge, especially obvious as they learn about themselves and are heavily associated with eyes. the theban plague is the apocalypse and both can be reversed with the downfall of the protagonist.

consistently characterised jason todd you will forever exist only in my heart

i know starlin is seen as the main post-crisis jaybin writer but jason writers PLEASE read collins

The body of a post is where Hamlet talks to Claudius. The tags is where Hamlet talks to the audience

rewatching the under the red hood movie and i gotta say as much as i love jason’s speech to bruce about how mad he is that the joker’s still alive, i still maintain that a severely underrated speech in this movie is from ra’s when he’s talking to bruce and in essence says ‘yeah so i hired the joker to distract you which was my bad because he totally went overboard and killed your son :/ and i felt so guilty i decided not to try and fight you anymore and then i stole your son’s corpse and tried to revive him via lazarus pit so i could like. make amends. except that was also my bad because we fucked that one up real good and when he came back out BOY was he weird in the head. killed my guys and then fucking jumped out a window and we lost him. my bad. and i thought he’d died again but apparently he’s in gotham and is like. totally destroying your whole lives which again, my bad. shouldn’t have tried to help. sorry about that. i’ll just stay out of your business from now on.’ which is actually the funniest characterisation of ra’s i’ve ever seen

Heard this song a few days ago and locked tf in and drew this in 2 days

starlin’s batman, the one that died with jason, would have walked away as jason pulled the trigger on the joker
