It was the weird message from Bruce...


My Dearest Jason...

I can no longer be with you, which for me means around and somewhat there, but not necessarily. In any case, I tried to be a good father to you (provided I know what a good father is). But that is neither here nor there. (Nor am I most of the time).

In the past we've had disagreements over making Gotham safe. From the criminals that is,not us.

In truth, we are too much alike. And upon reconsidering, I have a final gift for you. Lightning struck me twice and gave insight!

Son, you were right. It isn't enough to break bones anymore. Times change, and we must change with them.

Go forth in your rage. Riot and raze, bomb and burn in my name. Murder every felon you lay eyes on and clean the streets of Gotham. Run amuck like the madman you are, make daddy proud!

Don't worry about your brothers. They may resist your methods at first, but as the bodies pile up they'll have more free time for dates!

You have my tender blessings on your mission. My dark, twisted love burns for you even across the reaches of time. When I get back we'll talk more about the secret, and whether I'm in any legal trouble!

Sincerely,
Daddy Bat :biggrin:

Beaten to death + Lazurus Pit?

I'm fine with him being crazy. What I can't stand are the constant attempts to "rehibilitate" him and how it ruins other character to allow it (Donna Troy is seriously going to fall for a known murderer?). Let it go. Let him be the bad son who fulfills our darkest wishes of what Batman would do. Of course the only problem with that being The Joker would already be dead and you just can't do that.

Exactly. Jason Todd has the room needed to be one of the bad asses of the DC universe. Hopefully now with the brawl for all out of the way and him snip snappedy snap snapped hardcore they will go ahead and let him just kill whoever in the name of it what was just.

Then again , He may be Black Mask the way things are looking. It's possible.
